4. in several parts of the world there exist ocean currents of differing temperature that come into contact. an example of this takes place off the coast of southern africa, where the warm agulhas and the cold benguela currents meet at cape point, near capetown. it has been proposed that work may be obtained from these ocean currents if heat engine could operate between the warm current as a source and the cold current as a sink. assume that the system may be simplified into two channels of water flowing concurrently on either side of power plant with no heat losses to the surrounding water. it has been estimated that the benguela current flows at the rate of 16 million m3/s and its initial temperature is 40ď‚°f. the agulhas flows at 20 million m3/s and its initial temperature is 80ď‚°f. calculate the maximum power available from these two currents

The extremely high temperatures needed to trigger nuclear fusion are proposed to be generated by laser irradiating a spherical pellet of deuterium and tritium fuel of diameter 1.8 mm. (a) determine the maximum fuel temperature that can be achieved by irradiating the pellet with 200 lasers, each producing a power of 550 w. the pellet has an absorptivity 0.3 and emissivity 0.8.

Atank has a shape of a cone with a radius at the top of 2 m and a height of 5 m. the tank also has a 1 m spout at the top of the tank. the tank is filled with water up to a height of 2 m. find the work needed to pump all the water out the top of the spout. (use 9.8 m/s2 for g and the fact that the density of water is 1000 kg/m3.)
