Answer:
Explanation:
The pressures given are relative
p1 = 2000 psi
P1 = 2014 psi = 13.9 MPa
p2 = 4 psi
P2 = 18.6 psi = 128 kPa
Values are taken from the steam pressure-enthalpy diagram
h2 = 2500 kJ/kg
If the output of the turbine has a quality of 85%:
t2 = 106 C
I consider the expansion in the turbine to adiabatic and reversible, therefore, isentropic
s1 = s2 = 6.4 kJ/(kg K)
h1 = 3500 kJ/kg
t2 = 550 C
The work in the turbine is of
w = h1 - h2 = 3500 - 2500 = 1000 kJ/kg
The thermal efficiency of the cycle depends on the input heat.
η = w/q1
q1 is not a given, so it cannot be calculated.

Answer:
The answer is not in the options. It is one-fourth.
Explanation:
As of 2017, it was recorded that nuclear power supplies 25% of electricity in Europe. That's 1/4 of the total electrical power supply.
Answer:
15.24°C
Explanation:
The quality of any heat pump pumping heat from cold to hot place is determined by its coefficient of performance (COP) defined as

Where Q_{in} is heat delivered into the hot place, in this case, the house, and W is the work used to pump heat
You can think of this quantity as similar to heat engine's efficiency
In our case, the COP of our heater is

Where T_{house} = 24°C and T_{out} is temperature outside
To achieve maximum heating, we will have to use the most efficient heat pump, and, according to the second law of thermodynamics, nothing is more efficient that Carnot Heat Pump
Which has COP of:

So we equate the COP of our heater with COP of Carnot heater

Rearrange the equation

Solve this simple quadratic equation, and you should get that the lowest outdoor temperature that could still allow heat to be pumped into your house would be
15.24°C
