What is the break down of this problem

(1.013*10*5 N / m*2 + 40m*1000kg/ m*3*9.8m/s*2)(15*10*6m*3)(4degree C) divided by (1.013*10*5 N/ m*2)(23degree C)
What is the answer to this question
 
1.013*10^5 N / M^2 is atmospheric pressure (101 kPa)
1000 kg / M^3 is the density of water 1 M^3 = 1000 liters
9.8 M / S^2 is the gravitational acceleration at the surface of the earth
40 M is the height from which the water falls
So the first term (minus the 4 degree celsius) is the energy generated by 15 * 10^6 M^3 of water falling 40 meters.
