1) The Bay of Fundy-Passamaquoddy area near the border betweenMaine and New Brunswick/Nova Scotia in Canada, is another primesite for tidal power. The basin area is 700km2 and theaverage tidal range is 10.8 meters. Calculate the theoreticalmaximum power generating capability and the estimated realisticpower available from this site.

2) A client wants you to design a roof-mounted solar waterheater to supplement the energy input to their radiant floorheating system. They would like to have an indirect solarcollection system similar to the one shown in Figure 11.16 of yourtextbook. The south-facing solar collector has a stated efficiencyof 41%, and will be used to INDIRECTLY heat water in a supplementalstorage tank that has a capacity of 150 Liters (~ 40 gallons). Thecirculating pump will operate at the rate of 20 x10-6 m3/sec. On a typicalsummer day, there are 5.6 hours of direct sunshine, which creates a15.5°C temperature rise in the solar collector fluid for that wholetime period. Assume the collector fluid is water (heat capacity of4.184 J/g-°C). What will be the increase in temperature of thewater in the storage tank?
