A hydroelectric dam uses a turbine to generate electricity. If the density of water is 1000 kg/m^3 and water falls a distance of 50m to turn the turbine. If 30 MW of electrical energy is outputted from the dam and 100kg of water pass through the turbine each second to generate this electricity, how efficient is the dam?
