Mechanical advantage describe how simple machines?

c: multiply the input force

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?

An electric clothes dryer has a resistance of 8 ohms. it draws 30 a of current. what is the voltage, in volts, of the wall outlet that it is plugged into?

How are the crust and the inner core alike? a) they are both solid. b) they both have the same temperature. c) they are both under the same pressure. d) they are both very close to the center of the earth.
