30 CHAPTER 5 TURBINES 5.1 Introduction Hydraulic turbines are the machines which use the energy of water and convert it to mechanical energy. The mechanical energy developed by a turbine is used in running an electric generator which is directly coupled to the shaft of the turbine. The electric generator thus develops electric power‚ which is known as hydro-electric power. 5.2 Elements of Hydraulic Power Plants Fig.5.1 General Layout of a Hydraulic Power Plant 31

It has a commonly recognized place in philosophy and fiction‚ but has a very limited application in real world physics‚ such as in quantum mechanics or wormholes. Although the 1895 novel The Time Machine by H. G. Wells was instrumental in moving the concept of time travel to the forefront of the public imagination‚ The Clock That Went Backward by

Enzymatic activities of bioactive washing powder Title: Investigation of the amalyse activity f bioactive washing powder Objective: To investigate the amalyse activity of the two brands of bioactive washing powder – “Super clean” and “Magic power”. Principal: Amalyse can catalyse the breakdown of starch into maltose. In this practical‚ solutions of the 2 washing powders will be filled into 2 identical wells on the starch agar plate separately. Starch will be broken down by the amylase disused
