prob 29 in me pe sample examination

[ridge35]

does anyone know where the equation used to solve for this problem come from. its the power output of a turbine in a hydroelectric plant, i have looked throughout the merm but cant find it, unless the author is just using a simple pump power output equation with flowrate and head values. am i just overlooking the correct page?

I believe what you are looking for can be found in TABLE 18.4 in the MERM (i'm using 12th edition)
