A 36-efficient electric power plant produces 900 mw of


A 36%-efficient electric power plant produces 900 MW of electric power and discharges waste heat into 20^\circC ocean water. Suppose the waste heat could be utilized to heat homes during the winter instead of being discharged into the ocean. A typical American house requires an average 20 kW for heating.

How many homes could be heated by the waste heat of this one power plant?
