A nuclear power plant generates 3000 MW of heat energy from nuclear reactions in the reactor's core. This energy is used to boil water and produce high-pressure steam at 320 ∘C. The steam spins a turbine, which produces 1000 MW of electric power, then the steam is condensed and the water is cooled to 25∘C before starting the cycle again. Part A: What is the maximum possible thermal efficiency of the power plant? Part B: Cooling water from a river...
