Consider a Pelton wheel of 1 m diameter. The magnitude of relative velocity of water at the bucket inlet is same as the magnitude of relative velocity of water at the bucket exit. The absolute speed of water at the bucket inlet is 125.66 m s-1. For maximum power output from the Pelton wheel, the rpm of the Pelton wheel is ______ (rounded off to 1 decimal place).
Correct : 1200.0
