Chapter 6, Problem 6.97QP
Niagara Falls has a height of 167 ft (American Falls). What is the potential energy in joules of 1.00 lb of water at the top of the falls if we take water at the bottom to have a potential energy of zero? What would be the speed of this water at the bottom of the falls if we neglect friction during the descent of the water?
