An ambitious physics major decides to check out the Uncertainty Principle for macroscopic systems. She goes to the top of the UD tower and drops a marble of mass m to the ground, trying to hit one of the cracks between bricks on the mall. To aim her marble, she teeters precariously directly over the desired crack and uses a very sophisticated apparatus of the highest possible precision, which she has borrowed from the General Physics Lab. Alas, try as she might, she cannot hit the crack. Required:
Prove that the marble will inevitably miss the crack.

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 300Ā° c, and the exhaust water is at 37Ā° 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?
