Answer:
I. 90%
II. 60 MW
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Power input = 600 MW
Power output = 540 MW
I. Determination of the efficiency.
Power input = 600 MW
Power output = 540 MW
Efficiency =?
Efficiency = output / input × 100
Efficiency = 540 / 600 × 100
Efficiency = 90%
II. Determination of the power wasted by the pump.
Power input = 600 MW
Power output = 540 MW
Power wasted =?
Power wasted = Power input – Power output
Power wasted = 600 – 540
Power wasted = 60 MW
