Answer:

Fuel used = 111,303,473,760 MJ/year

Step-by-step explanation:

Power production = Fuel energy * Efficiency

1200 MW = Fuel energy * 0.34

Fuel energy = 1200 MW / 0.34 =3529.41 MW

This means it consumes 3529.41 MJ/s.

Per year, it operates 365 days, 24 hours a day, 3600 seconds an hour.

To calculate the fuel used annualy we have to multiplicate by all these factors

Fuel used = 3529.41 MJ/s * 3600 s/hour * 24 hours/day * 365 days/year

Fuel used = 111,303,473,760 MJ/year

Answer:

a 25 questions, 4 points   b 19 questions

Step-by-step explanation:

a 96:100 = 24 : x

x = (100 x 24)/96 = 25 questions

100 : 25 = 4 points

b 76:100 = x : 25

x = (76 x 25)/100 = 19 questions

An aircraft is approaching the runway to land The aircraft is at a height of h= 314 meters from the runway. The angle of
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

easy peasy

Step-by-step explanation:

u see,

the height of the airplane from the ground is 314m

but with the tower's horizontal plane, it would be

=> altitude of aircraft - height of tower

=> 314 - 70 = 244 m

now in the ABC,

using the ratio of sine,

sin 16 = AB/AC

=> 0.275 = 244/AC

=> AC = 244/ 0.275

=> AC = 887.9...

=> AC = approx. 886 meters
