Following three questions refer to the information below. A coal-fired power plant produces and sells 10,000 MW electricity whil

e operating at 40% thermal efficiency. The sale prioe of electric power is $0.04 per kWh. How much power does it reject to the atmosphere? How much power (in the form of heat rate) does it require from coal combustion?

Answer: Heat rejected=150000MW

Heat rate= 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Thermal efficiency is defined as work out divided by heat in.

Therefore

thermal efficiency = 40/100= 100000 MW/Heat in

Heat in = 250000MW

For a closed system undergoing a cycle the change in internal energy is zero. Therefore the work out of the system is equal to the net heat transfer of the system. Therefore

Work out= heat in - heat out

Therefore heat out = heat in - work out

Heat out = 250000 MW - 100000MW = 150000 MW which is the amount of heat rejected

The heat rate is defined as the inverse of the thermal efficiency expressed in kJ/kWh.Therefore

Heat rate = 1/thermal efficiency

Heat rate = 1/0.4 = 2.5 kJ/kWh

Consider ΔWXY and ΔBCD with ∠X ≅∠C, WX ≅ BC, and WY ≅ BD.
LenKa [72]

Answer:- B. No, because the corresponding congruent angles listed are not the included angles.


Explanation:-

Given:- ΔWXY and ΔBCD with ∠X ≅∠C, WX ≅ BC, and WY ≅ BD.

Now, look at the attachment

We can see that ∠X and ∠C are not included angles by the corresponding equal sides.

⇒ We cannot use SAS postulate to show ΔWXY ≅ ΔBCD .

⇒ B is the right option.

SAS postulate tells the if two sides of a triangle and their included angle is equal to the two sides of a triangle and their included angle of another triangle then the two triangles are congruent.

Answer:

  17,500

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem can be written as a proportion:

  hits/revenue = 1000/(£2) = x/(£35)

Multiplying by £35 gives ...

  x = 1000(35/2) = 35000/2 = 17,500

17500 hits are required for revenue of £35.
