Final question in my physics course...pls help :/
Suppose a power plant delivers energy at 835 MW using steamturbines. The steam goes into the turbines superheated at 566 K anddeposits its unused heat in river water at 284 K. Assume that theturbine operates as an ideal Carnot engine.
a. If the river flow rate is 35.2 m3/s, calculate the averagetemperature increase (in Celsius) of the river water downstreamfrom the power plant.
b. What is the entropy increase per kilogram of the downstreamriver water?
