1. In a power station 4 x 10 4 GWh of
energy is to be produced in 1 year,
half from coal and half from natural
gas. The energy content of coal is
900 W-year/ton and that of natural
gas is .03 W-year/ton. How much
coal and how much natural gas will
be required?
2. Calculate the velocity with which a
200 – kg mass must move so that its
kinetic energy will equal to the
energy dissipated in a 0.2-ohm
resistor through which a 100 A
current flows for 2 hours?
3. A conveyor belt of length 15 – m is
at 35o with respect to the ground or
horizontal. It can hold 4,000 kg of
ore over its total length and it
travels the distance of its length in
30 seconds. Calculate the power
rating of the motor in KW that
drives the conveyor belt?
4. The energy requirement of a
customer was approximately 2.82 x
106 GWh, if the energy is to be
produced by coal and natural gas,
with an average energy content of
coal equivalent to 940 W- year/ton
and natural gas has an energy
content of .036 W – year/ft 3, if 80%
of the net energy requirement were
to be met by coal and 20% with
natural gas, what amount of coal and
natural would be required?
