4.8. In a power plant, the inlet water has a velocity of 100 ft/s and an elevation of 80 ft above the outlet of the plant. The outlet water has a velocity of 5 ft/s. How much work can be extracted by the power plant per unit- mass of water passing through the system? The enthalpy of the outlet water may be assumed identical with the enthalpy of the inlet water.
