c) interaction
d) change

In this experiment, you will use a track, a toy car, and some washers to explore newton’s first two laws of motion. you will make observations and collect data regarding the motion of these objects. in the space below, write a general scientific question that you will answer by doing this experiment.

Acoal-fired plant generates 600 mw of electric power. the plant uses 4.8 x 10^6 kg of coal each day, and the heat of combustion of coal is 3.3x 10^7 j/kg. the steam that drives the turbines is at a temperature of 300° c, and the exhaust water is at 37° c. (a) what is the overall efficiency of the plant for generating electric power? (b) how much thermal energy is exhausted each day? (c) what is the change in entropy of the universe for this heat engine? (d) using the same heat reservoirs, what is the maximum possible (carnot) efficiency for a heat engine?
