Estimate the number of btu that would be generated annually in the us if all the municipal waste were incinerated. assume 800 pounds per year per person of burnable waste at 4200 btu/lb. (use 300 million as the us population) (compute your answer in btu, but don't enter units. if the answer is 1 million btu, input 1.0e6) for you to think about: this question is a "quickie" given all the facts above. do you think you could look up (or estimate) the numbers i gave you? do they seem reasonable? even more important for you to think about - how does this number compare with the total energy consumption of the us (i. e. about 100 qbtu)
