In a hydroelectric power plant, water flows from an elevation of 400 ft to a turbine, where electric power is generated. for an overall turbine-generator efficiency of 86 percent, determine the flow rate of water to generate 100 kw of electricity if the irreversible head loss of the piping system between the free surfaces of the inlet and the outlet is 36 ft. take the density of water to be p= 624 ibm/t2 the flow rate of water is

The starship enterprise is caught in a time warp and spock is forced to use the primitive techniques of the 20th century to determine the specific heat capacity of an unknown mineral. the 125-g sample was heated to 96.3°c and placed into a calorimeter containing 85.9 g of water at 20.0°c. the heat capacity of the calorimeter was 14.2 j/k. the final temperature in the calorimeter was 24.5°c. what is the specific heat capacity (in j/g°c) of the mineral? enter to 4 decimal places.
