An engineer is making an estimate for a homeowner. This owner has a small stream (Q=1.4 cfs, T=40°F) that is located at an elevation H=34 ft above the owners’ residence. The owner is proposing to dam stream, diverting the flow through a pipe (penstock). This flow will spin a hydraulic turbine, which in turn willdrive a generator to produce electrical power. Estimate the maximum power in kilowatts that can be generated if there is no head loss and both the turbine and generator are 100% efficient. Also, estimate the power if the head loss is 5.5 ft, turbine is 70% efficient, and the generator is 90% efficient. (20 pts
