Q1. Over a 30-day period a power plant generates an average of 751 MW of electrical power and 1225 MW of waste heat, and burns 1.83×108 kg of coal. Assume that it takes 2.30 kg of oxygen to burn 1.00 kg of coal. (The actual amount varies with the type of the coal). What is the total mass of the reagents used in the combustion all through the 30 days?
Q2. Assume you are a fish. You get up every morning and weigh yourself (in water), and find you weigh 0.42 N. You, being a boxfish, are a box measuring 4.174 cm per side. You see a poor, hungry fisherman, and decide to be his dinner. You hook yourself; enjoy a last meal of worm, and after that go to heaven. The gravity in heaven is 2.718 m/s², and you are no longer under water, so how much do you now weigh, in N
