Estimate the electric power output of the plant, Mechanical Engineering

Estimate the electric power output of the plant

In a hydroelectric power plant, 100 m^3/s of water flows from an elevation of 120 m to a turbine, where electric power is generated. The overall efficiency of the turbine-generator is 80 %. Disregarding frictional losses in piping, estimate the electric power output of the plant.
