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

Solve for t in scientific formula d=rt
yarga [219]
The problem is: d=rt
you are solving for r

d=rt
--  --
t    t


you divide both sides by r, so your answer is:

d/t=r or r=d/t

I hope this helped! :))

Angie and Kenny play online video games. Angie buys 1 software package and 1 month of game play. Kenny buys 1 software package a
balandron [24]

The cost of one month of game play is $14

Step-by-step explanation:

Angie and Kenny play online video games

  • Angie buys 1 software package and 1 month of game play
  • Kenny buys 1 software package and 3 months of game play
  • Each software package costs ​$20
  • If their total cost is ​$96

We need to find the cost of one month of game play

∵ Angie buys 1 software package

∵ Kenny buys 1 software package

∵ Each software package costs ​$20

- Find the total cost of their software package

∴ The total cost of their software package = 20 × 1 + 20 × 1

∴ The total cost of their software package = 20 + 20 = 40

∴ The total cost of their software package is $40

Assume that the cost of one month of game​ play is $x

∵ The cost of one month of game​ play = x

∵ Angie buys 1 month of game play

∵ Kenny buys 3 months of game play

- Find the total cost of their game​ play

∴ The total cost of their game play = x × 1 + x × 3

∴ The total cost of their game play = x + 3x = 4x

∴ The total cost of their game play is $4x

∵ Their total cost is ​$96

- Add the costs of their software package and their game

   play and equate the sum by 96

∴ 40 + 4x = 96

- Subtract 40 from both sides

∴ 4x = 56

- Divide both sides by 4

∴ x = 14

The cost of one month of game play is $14

Tests show that the hydrogen ion concentration of a sample of apple juice is 0.0003 and that of ammonia is 3.1 x 10^-9. Find the
scoundrel [369]
PH can be calculated using the following equation 
pH = -log [H₃O⁺]
for apple juice the hydronium /hydrogen ion concentration is 0.0003
pH = -log (0.0003)
pH = 3.5
correct answer is C

For ammonia 
pH = -log (3.1 x 10⁻⁹)
pH = 8.5 
answer should be 8.5
