Acoal-fired plant generates 600 mw of electric power. the plant uses 4.8 x 10^6 kg of coal each day, and the heat of combustion of coal is 3.3x 10^7 j/kg. the steam that drives the turbines is at a temperature of 300° c, and the exhaust water is at 37° c. (a) what is the overall efficiency of the plant for generating electric power? (b) how much thermal energy is exhausted each day? (c) what is the change in entropy of the universe for this heat engine? (d) using the same heat reservoirs, what is the maximum possible (carnot) efficiency for a heat engine?

You are a researcher for a golf club manufacturer. you are given two identical looking cubes of a metal alloy. you are informed that they are made of the exact same material, but one is crystalline, whereas the other is amorphous. it is your job to determine which one is amorphous this one is more stress-resistant and is useful in reinforcing golf clubs. which of the following is the best way to determine which is which? a. determine the density of each cube. the more dense one is the amorphous solid. b. melt both cubes and look for a broader range of melting temperatures. the one that melts over a broader range of temperatures is the amorphous solid. c. determine the density of each cube. the less dense cube is the amorphous solid. d. melt both cubes and measure the range of melting temperatures. the one that melts over a narrower range of temperatures is the amorphous solid.
