How Reservoir Height Affects Hydroelectric Power Production
Posted: Thu Aug 07, 2014 6:26 am
Hi I was wondering in this experiment it states that we Remove the duct tape from the milk jug and immediately start the timer. This will be your starting time (time = 0 min). do we remove the whole piece of duct tape or de we only uncover one hole?
Also
Measure and write down the length of each water stream in your data table. Then immediately, with the ruler, measure and record the height of the reservoir (from the bottom of the milk jug to the surface of the water), and record your measurement in the data table.
What does this mean? Do we just measure from the stream to the hole?
My project is due in two weeks I hope somebody could answer this, thank you very much.
