Answer:
The ratio of the Broglie wavelength of an electron to that of the proton is 42.85.
Explanation:
let λe be the Broglie wavelength of the electron and λp be the Broglie wavelength of the proton, Me be the mass of the electron and Mp be the mass of the proton. let h be the Planck constant, Kep be the kinetic energy of the proton and KEe be the kinetic energy of the electron
Answer:
(a) 83475 MW
(b) 85.8 %
Explanation:
Output power = 716 MW = 716 x 10^6 W
Amount of water flows, V = 1.35 x 10^8 L = 1.35 x 10^8 x 10^-3 m^3
mass of water, m = Volume x density = 1.35 x 10^8 x 10^-3 x 1000
= 1.35 x 10^8 kg
Time, t = 1 hr = 3600 second
T1 = 25.4° C, T2 = 30.7° C
Specific heat of water, c = 4200 J/kg°C
(a) Total energy, Q = m x c x ΔT
Q = 1.35 x 10^8 x 4200 x (30.7 - 25.4) = 3 x 10^12 J
Power = Energy / time
Power input =
Power input = 83475 MW
(b) The efficiency of the plant is defined as the ratio of output power to the input power.
Thus, the efficiency is 85.8 %.
