This is the question: Problem 79 Chapter 7inPhysics: For Scientistsand Engineers 6th ed. A large nuclear power plants produces 1000 MW of electrical powerbynuclear fission.(a) By how many kilograms does the mass of the nuclearfueldecrease in one year? (Assume an efficiency of 33 percent foranuclear power plant.) (b) In a coal-burning power plant, each kilogram ofcoalreleases 31 MJ of thermal energy when burned. How manykilograms ofcoal are needed each year for a 1000-MW coal burningpower plant?(Assume an efficiency of 38 percent for a coal-burningpowerplant.)
