Showing all your conversion factor work, answer the following questions. You must show at least ONE-TWO basic conversions and steps for each problem.

1. AEP's Gavin Plant (Units 1 and 2) can produce up to 2950 megawatts (MW) at peak power. What is the Gavin Plant's peak power in horsepower (Hp)? In ft-lbf/sec?
2. To produce peak power, Gavin burns 18.5 short tons of coal per minute. How many kilograms of coal does Gavin burn per minute (kg/min)? Per day (kg/day)?
3. If the coal has an energy content of 12,700 BTU/lbm. What is the energy of the coal in kJ/kg?
4. Heat Rate is the energy input of the coal (in BTU) needed to produce a kilowatt of power over the period of an hour (kW-hr). Using the information in Problems 1, 2 and 3, determine the Gavin Plant's heat rate at peak power. .
5. A home uses 2.05 cubic feet of natural gas in a day. How many cubic meters of natural gas were consumed per month assuming 30 days in that month?
6. If the natural gas from Problem #5 has an energy content of 1025 BTU/ft3, determine the energy content of the natural gas in kJ/m3
7. Using the information from Problems #5 and #6, how much energy in BTU and kJ were consumed last month?
8. My Chevy Volt can produce a torque of 294 ft-lbf. What is that torque in N-m (Newton-meters)?
9. The Chevy Volt has a peak power of 149 Hp. What is the peak power in kW? What is the peak power in ft-lbf/sec?
10. The expected temperature today is 73.0F. What is the temperature in Celsius? In Kelvin? In Rankine?
