Question

Is the assumption in this question (for ther manometer part) that water is used as the other lquid in the mercury manometer? Can any other fluid be used? 

You do not have to solve the equation*

 

Thank you

12-58 Water enters a hydraulic turbine through a 30-cm-
diameter pipe at a rate of 0.6 m/s and exits through a 25-cm-
diameter pipe. The pressure drop in the turbine is measured
by a mercury manometer to be 1.2 m. For a combined tur-
bine-generator efficiency of 83 percent, determine the net
electric power output. Disregard the effect of the kinetic
energy correction factors.
