There are plans to build a power plant near your home, you are downwind of the power plant. The decision hasn’t been made whether the plant will burn coal or use the heat of a nuclear reaction to generate the power. Which type of power plant do you want built upwind of your home, and why?
I would want them to setup power plant running from the heat of a nuclear reaction to generate the power. As it has

Given the new found interest in nuclear power plants due to potential carbon taxes, you consider starting a company to build a nuclear power plant. Before you can build the plant, you need to gather permits, fight lawsuits and so forth. That will cost $800 million today and take 5 years to resolve with a 35% probability of success. If you build the plant, you must pay $9 billion the day you start building the plant, which is immediately after...
In 1977, Honda, a Japanese company, announced plans to build a motorcycle manufacturing plant in the United States near Marysville, Ohio, and in 1980 announced plans to build an automobile manufacturing facility in the same area. Ever since the company made these announcements, Honda’s history has been nothing but impressive.To empha- size this success, the Marysville Auto Plant now produces the Accord Coupe for export to Japan. Honda of America has become a leading auto exporter in the United States,...
You are hired to build a geothermal power plant that absorbs heat from a hot water spring and discards heat into the surrounding air, which is at a temperature of 28°. The plant is designed for a maximum (Carnot) efficiency of 0.15. What is the temperature, in degrees Celsius, of the hot water gushing from the spring?
We consider a nuclear reactor of power output P=1000 Megawatt (1000 million watts) electric, functioning with Plutonium. It is fueled, initially, with 1000 kg of Plutonium. The nuclear material in question is made of Plutonium nuclei, each consisting in 94 protons and 239-94=145 neutrons, which is denominated by the symbol 94Pu239. For thermodynamical reasons, only 1/3rd of the nuclear energy in the form of heat produced by the reactor, can be converted into electricity. How much mass deficit Δm should...
