The electric output of a power plant is 800 MW. Cooling
water flows through the power plant at the rate 1.00
x 108 L/hr. The cooling water enters the plant at 11.0 °C
and exits at 29.0 °C.
What is the power plant's thermal efficiency?
Express your answer as a percentage.
A tennis ball with a mass of 57 g and a diameter of 6.4 cm is hit with an initial velocity of 105 km/h and a backspin of 4200 rpm. Determine if the ball falls or rises under the combined effect of gravity and lift due to spinning shortly after hitting. Assume air is at 1 atm and 25°C.
An unknown substance has a mass of 0.125 kg and an initial temperature of 98.0\deg C. The substance is then dropped
into a calorimeter made of aluminum containing 0.285 kg of water initially at 30.0\deg C. The mass of the aluminum
container is 0.150 kg, and the temperature of the calorimeter increases to a final equilibrium temperature of 32.0\deg C
. Assuming no thermal energy is transferred to the environment, calculate the specific heat of the unknown substance.
