How do you change the thermos into an open energy system

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?

The discovery that the universe appears to be expanding led to a widely accepted theory called a.) the big bang theory b.) the doppler effect c.) hubble’s law d.) solar nebular theory e.) the seyfert theory

Two vectors are shown. which statement best compares the vectors? vector x has greater magnitude than vector y. vector y has greater magnitude than vector x. the vectors have the same displacement. the vectors have the same direction.
