The answer must be hydraulic efficiency because actual work means the water head available at turbine inlet, and energy imparted to the wheel or runner is that energy which runner receives after friction losses at an entry to the pump.

The correct answer should be C because it is the ratio b/W Turbine input and wheel output.
