The reason has to do with the amount of work necessary to remove heat from a substance, which increases substantially the colder you try to go. To reach zero kelvins, you would require an infinite amount of work.

A 600 MW power plant has an efficiency of 36 percent with 15
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

401.3 kg/s

Explanation:

The power plant has an efficiency of 36%. This means 64% of the heat form the source (q1) will become waste heat. Of the waste heat, 85% will be taken away by water (qw).

qw = 0.85 * q2

q2 = 0.64 * q1

p = 0.36 * q1

q1 = p /0.36

q2 = 0.64/0.36 * p

qw = 0.85 *0.64/0.36 * p

qw = 0.85 *0.64/0.36 * 600 = 907 MW

In evaporation water becomes vapor absorbing heat without going to the boiling point (similar to how sweating takes heat from the human body)

The latent heat for the vaporization of water is:

SLH = 2.26 MJ/kg

So, to dissipate 907 MW

G = qw * SLH = 907 / 2.26 = 401.3 kg/s

One method that is used to grow nanowires (nanotubes with solid cores) is to initially deposit a small droplet of a liquid catal
7nadin3 [17]

Answer: maximum length of the nanowire is 510 nm

Explanation:

 

From the table of 'Thermo physical properties of selected nonmetallic solids at At T = 1500 K

Thermal conductivity of silicon carbide k = 30 W/m.K

Diameter of silicon carbide nanowire, D = 15 x 10⁻⁹ m  

lets consider the equation for the value of m

m = ( (hP/kAc)^1/2 )  = ( (4h/kD)^1/2 )  

m =  ( ((4 × 10⁵)/(30×15×10⁻⁹ ))^1/2 ) = 942809.04    

now lets find the value of h/mk    

h/mk = 10⁵ / ( 942809.04 × 30) =  0.00353

lets consider the value θ/θb by using the equation

θ/θb = (T - T∞) / (T - T∞)

θ/θb =  (3000 - 8000) / (2400 - 8000)

= 0.893

the temperature distribution at steady-state is expressed as;

θ/θb = [ cosh m(L - x) + ( h/mk) sinh m (L - x)]   / [cosh mL+  (h/mk) sinh mL]

θ/θb = [ cosh m(L - L) + ( h/mk) sinh m (L - L)]   / [cosh mL+  (h/mk) sinh mL]

θ/θb = [ 1 ]  / [cosh mL+  (h/mk) sinh mL]

so we substitute

0.893 =  [ 1 ]  / [cosh (942809.04 × L) +  (0.00353) sinh (942809.04 × L)]

L = 510 × 10⁻⁹m

L = 510 nm

therefore maximum length of the nanowire is 510 nm
