A river descends 15 m in passing through rapids. The speed of the water is 3.2 m/s upon entering the rapids and is 13 m/s as it leaves. What percentage of the potential energy lost by the water in traversing the rapids appears as kinetic energy of water downstream? What happens to the rest of the energy?
