Expert Solution
Step 1

(a)

Write the formula for the net power generated in the turbine.

W˙net=m˙h1-h2

Here, m˙ is the mass flow rate of the turbine, h1 is the enthalpy of the water vapor at state 1, h2 is the enthalpy of the water vapor at state 2, and W˙net is the net power generated in the turbine.
