62. A 33%; efficient power plant puts out 850 MW of electrical power. Cooling towers are used to take away the exhaust heat, (a) If the air temperature is allowed to rise 7.0 C. estimate what volume of air (km3) is heated per day. Will the local climate be heated significantly? (b) If the heated air were to form a layer 200 m thick, estimate how large an area it would cover for 24 h of operation. Assume the air has density 1.2kg/m3 and that its specific heat is about 1.0kJ/kg*C at constant pressure.
