(REGENERATIVE CYCLE WITH ONE CLOSED AND ONE OPEN HEATER): Do not use your Steam Tables. Refer to the H2O properties given in the table below.
A regenerative cycle with one stage of reheating is executed with steam expanding initially from 20 Mpaa and 540 deg C. The reheater pressure is 10 Mpaa. The steam leaves the reheater at 540 deg C. Steam is bled after reheating to one CFWH and on one OFWH a pressure equal to 5 Mpaa and 1 Mpaa respectively. The condensate of the steam used in the CFWH is routed to the OFWH through a trap. The CFWH has a Terminal Difference of 4 deg. C. Condensation occurs at 60 deg C. Sketch the equipment and TS diagram. Isentropic expansion and compression efficiencies are 90 %. nk = 80%.

Based on the above bucket list: Please answer below questions:
How do the wishes/goals on your bucket list relate to your values and identity? How would they help you achieve “ego integrity”? Are some wishes/goals more important in terms of fulfilling ego integrity than others, and if so, why? Discuss specific examples from your bucket list. Describe ego integrity in your response before applying it.
What other developmental tasks or conflicts from Erikson’s psychosocial theory are reflected in your wishes/goals? If you haven’t yet resolved some of the tasks from earlier stages in your life or your current stage in life, you might find that you have a wish/goal that relates to fulfillment of the task. You can consider any stage, such as identify vs. role confusion (the task for adolescence), intimacy vs. isolation (the task for young adulthood), and generativity vs. stagnation (the task for middle adulthood). Make sure to relate specific wishes/goals from your bucket list to specific developmental tasks.
Do you think you will have the same bucket list a decade from now? What about two decades from now? Why or why not? When answering these questions, assume that your wishes/goals have not yet been fulfilled.

Whaley Distributors is a wholesale distributor of electronic components. Financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, reported the following amounts and subtotals ($ in millions):
In 2021, the following situations occurred or came to light:
a. Internal auditors discovered that ending inventories reported on the financial statements the two previous years were misstated due to faulty internal controls. The errors were in the following amounts:
2019 inventory................Overstated by $12 million
2020 inventory...............Understated by $10 million
b. A liability was accrued in 2019 for a probable payment of $7 million in connection with a lawsuit ultimately settled in December 2021 for $4 million.
c. A patent costing $18 million at the beginning of 2019, expected to benefit operations for a total of six years, has not been amortized since acquired.
d. Whaley’s conveyer equipment was depreciated by the sum-of-the-years’-digits (SYD) basis since it was acquired at the beginning of 2019 at a cost of $30 million. It has an expected useful life of five years and no expected residual value. At the beginning of 2021, Whaley decided to switch to straight-line depreciation.
Required:
For each situation
1. Prepare any journal entry necessary as a direct result of the change or error correction, as well as any adjusting entry for 2021 related to the situation described. (Ignore tax effects.)
2. Determine the amounts to be reported for each of the five items shown above from the 2019 and 2020 financial statements when those amounts are reported again in the 2019–2021 comparative financial statements.

The parking lot of a shopping center is square of sides a, delimited by sills of height h, and the entrance to the parking lot is width c. During the last rain it was flooded, and the only escape route was entrance c. To avoid future flooding, it is necessary to determine the time t in which the water takes to evacuate from the enclosure. For the effect, a 1: 100 scale model is used and it is observed that this time depends on all the parking distances, on gravity, the viscosity and density of the rainwater. Determine the dimensionless numbers involved in the problem; ii) if the model takes 8 minutes to drain the water, how long must the barrier be closed for vehicles to enter the parking lot again?

You are going to empty a compressed air tank, but you want to do it in a way that results in the contents inside the tank remaining isenthalpic. If the initial state of air in the tank is 1500 psia and 100 °F, and it is emptied until the pressure is 14.7 psia, determine the heat transfer required to keep the air in the tank isenthalpic. The initial mass in the tank is 10 lbm and the final mass is 0.098 lbm. Assume ideal gas behavior.
