Unit power is power by water can raise head for 1 meter.
Then,
We can apply the formula to find the Unit power as below:
Unit Power = p/H^3/2.
=1750*1000/100^3,
=1750000/1000000,
=1750 W,
=1.75 KW.

We can apply the formula to find the Unit power as below:

=1750000/1000000,
=1750 W,
=1.75 KW.

Unit power is the the power required to raise the fluid up to 1m head.
So,
Unit power = total power / total head.
= 175/100.
= 1.75.
So,
Unit power = total power / total head.
= 175/100.
= 1.75.

Unit power = P/[H^(3/2)].
= 1750 * 10^3/100^(3/2).
= 1750 W.
= 1.75 KW.
= 1750 * 10^3/100^(3/2).
= 1750 W.
= 1.75 KW.

Unit power = P/[H^(3/2)].
= 1750 * 10^3/100^(3/2).
= 1750 W.
= 1.75 KW.
= 1750 * 10^3/100^(3/2).
= 1750 W.
= 1.75 KW.

Unit power of Pelton wheel = P/H^3/2 so 1750/100^3/2=1.75KW.

Unit power= (Outpur power/H^(3/2)).
Hence 1750/1000=1.75.
Hence 1750/1000=1.75.

Unit power = p/h^(3/2),
So, we get 1.75 KW.
So, we get 1.75 KW.
