A coal fired power station converts one third of the coal's energy into electricity and the other two thirds of the energy content of the fuel is rejected to the environment as waste heat. The electrical output of the plant is 1000 MW. About 15% of the waste heat goes up the smokestack (lost) and the other 85% is taken away by cooling water that is drawn from a nearby river. The river has a volumetric flow rate of 100 m^3/s and a temperature of 20 degree C.

a. If you assume that this coal has an empirical formula C_5H_4 and the reaction is a complete combustion, what is the total mass of coal required per day for the current power output assuming the plant runs for 16 hrs per day? The energy density of coal is 35 times 10^6 J/kg. b. What is the volume of CO_2 produced every day by the plant?
c. What would be the river temperature (in degree C) just after it receives the heated cooling water?

mechanics (greek   is that area of science concerned with the behaviour of physical bodies when subjected to forces or displacements, and the subsequent effects of the bodies on their environment. the scientific discipline has its origins in ancient greece with the writings of aristotle and archimedes[1][2][3] (see history of classical mechanics and timeline of classical mechanics). during the early modern period, scientists such as galileo, kepler, and newton laid the foundation for what is now known as classical mechanics. it is a branch of classical physics that deals with particles that are either at rest or are moving with velocities significantly less than the speed of light. it can also be defined as a branch of science which deals with the motion of and forces on objects. the field is yet less widely understood in terms of quantum theory.

explanation:

your answer would be “dry”

the pseudoscience are like beliefs, theories, or like practices that are considered scientific
