Complete the following statements about the crystallinity in polymers by choosing the right answers in the [box].

Most thermoset polymers are [amorphous/crystalline] .

Some thermoplastic polymers are semi-crystalline, meaning they have both higher density  [amorphous/crystalline] regions and lower density  [amorphous/crystalline] regions.

In many semi-crystalline polymers, the polymer chains fold into [lamellae/spherulite] structures which can be part of a larger  [lamellae/spherulite] structure which is formed around a nucleation site.

In semi-crystalline polymers, the glass transition temperature is where there is an increase in the ability of the polymer chains to move in the  [amorphous/crystalline] regions. The melting point is where the  [amorphous/crystalline] regions turn into a liquid.

The terrace roof of a building at sea level is planned to have a rectangular floor area with dimensions of 10 m and 20 m. The prevailing wind speed in winter is u∞=25 km/h, and air temperature is assumed to be T∞=0°C. Considering that the outer surface temperature of the building is To=10°C, how should the building be positioned with respect to the prevailing wind direction to minimize the heat loss from the roof?

Stances that include stable or unstable equilibrium.Describe five stances used in sports and the reason for using those particular stances

A heat engine operates between a source and a sink. The source temperatures vary from 300 to 1000°C. Heat is supplied to the heat engine at a steady rate of 1200 kJ/min. Using Matlab or Excel (or other) software, study the effects of the temperatures of the heat source and the heat sink on the maximum power produced and the cycle thermal efficiency. Plot the power produced and the cycle efficiency against the source temperature for sink temperatures of 0°C, 25°C, and 50°C, and discuss the results.

There is a heat pump that operates with R 134ª refrigerant, whose compressor has a power of 5 kW. The heat pump condenser is used to heat oil from a temperature of 0 degrees Celsius, up to a temperature of 20 ° C, so the condenser operates with a condensation temperature of 40 ° C. Furthermore, the evaporator operating with an evaporation temperature of 5 ° C, it is desired to use to air conditioning from a temperature of 35 ° C and a relative humidity of 50% to a final temperature of 20 ° C and a relative humidity of 60%

A steam turbine operates with steam at inlet conditions of 3.5 MPa and 3500 C. The exit stream leave the turbine is at 0.8 MPa and is known to contain a mixture of saturated vapor and liquid. The steam rate through the turbine is 1000 kg/h. A (negligible) fraction of exit stream is bled through a throttle valve to 0.10 MPa and is found to be 1250 C. The measured output of the turbine is 100 kW.

a) Determine the temperature and quality of the exit stream.

b) Determine the rate of heat transfer into or out of the turbine during its operation.

The results of a tensile test can be evaluated as either engineering stress-strain curves or true stress-strain curves. The original cross-sectional area of the tensile test specimen is used to plot the former one, whereas the instantaneous cross-sectional area is used for the latter one. Assume that you are an engineer who needs to design a structural product using a hypothetical metal A, which should not plastically deform in the application area. You need to apply a tensile test to this hypothetical metal A in order to determine the required mechanical properties. From an engineering point of view, which method you should prefer to plot stress-strain curve: engineering stress-strain or true stress-strain? Explain.
