Engine oil (raffinate) with a flow rate of 5 kg/s will be cooled from 60°C to 40°C by sea water at 20°C in a double-pipe heat exchanger. The water flows through the inner tube, whose outlet is heated to 30°C. The inner tube outside and inside diameters are do = 1.315 in. (= 0.0334 m) and di = 1.049 in. (= 0.02664 m), respectively. For the annulus, Do = 4.5 in. (= 0.1143 m) and Di = 4.206 in. (=...

Suppose that an oil cartel effectively increases the price of oil by 100 percent, leading to a supply shock in both Country A and Country B. Assume that both countries were in the long-run equilibrium (full employment) at the same level of output and prices at the time of the shock. (a) Describe the short-run impact of this supply shock on prices and output in each country. Do not forget to support your answer on a graph. (b) Now assume...

An oil cartel effectively increases the price of oil by 100 percent, leading to an adverse supply shock in both Country A and Country B. Both countries were in long-run equilibrium at the same level of output and prices at the time of the shock. The central bank of Country A takes no stabilizing policy actions. After the short-run impacts of the adverse supply shock become apparent, the central bank of Country B increases the money supply to return the...
