At the inlet of a steam turbine the following information are given: p=1000 kPa, T=500 deg-C, u = 3124.3 kJ/kg, v = 0.35411, V=20 m/s, z=10 m, and mdot=10 kg/s.
determine the inlet area.
Determine the flow work at the inlet in MW
Determine the rate of transport of flow energy (Jdot).
If you neglect ke and pe in the expression for j, how would the answer in part c change? in percentage

a. A camera has a lens with a focal length of 0.032 m. The camera is set to an f-number of 5.6. The shutter speed (the amount of time during which the aperture is open to expose the film) is set to 0.35 s. What is the diameter of the camera's aperture?
b. If the camera is focused on an object that is 0.39 m away from the lens, how far is the film behind the lens?
c. If the f-number is changed to 2.8, does that increase the
amount of light hitting the film, decrease it, or leave it
unchanged?
Increases it.
Does not change it.
Decreases it.
d. By what factor does the amount of light hitting the film change when the f-number is changed from 5.6 to 2.8?
e. If you wanted to adjust the shutter speed so that the amount of light falling on the film with an f-number of 2.8 was the same as it was for the original f-number and shutter speed, what shutter speed should you use?
f. If you want to focus the camera on a very distant object, how far must the lens be from the film?

Water is being pumped through a horizontal pipe that is 36.0 m long and 13.5 cm in diameter. A pump maintains a gauge pressure of 742 Pa at a large open tank at one end of the pipe. The other end of the pipe is open to the air. If this pipe is replaced by a second one of length 9 m and diameter 5.0 cm, what gauge pressure must the pump provide to give the same volume flow rate as for the first pipe?

1) Serious bicyclists say that if you reduce the weight of a bike, it is better to reduce it in the wheels rather than in the frame. Why would reducing weight in the wheels make it easier on the bicyclist than reducing the same amount on the frame? 2) Why is a tapered water glass with a narrow base easier to tip over than a glass with straight sides? Does it matter if the glass is full or empty? 3) Using Bernoulli’s theorem, explain how a plane can take off.

Unless otherwise stated, all objects are located near the
Earth's surface, where g = 9.80 m/s2 .
At the end of most landing runways in airports, an extension of the
runway is constructed using a special substance called
formcrete. Formcrete can support the weight of cars, but
crumbles under the weight of airplanes to slow them down if they
run off the end of a runwa
If a plane of mass 1.80×105 kg is to stop from a speed of 20.0 m/s on a 120 m long stretch of formcrete, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted on the plane by the formcrete?

What is the maximum angle of climb (steady velocity climb) for a turbojet powered aircraft with an (L?D)max equal to 10.5 and a gross weight of 8000 lb. if it is producing a thrust of 2000 lb.? If the aircraft using the same available thrust, wishes to establish a rate of climb equal to 1800fpm, what airspeed will it need to establish? (Assume the required thrust equals 764pounds)

A thermos bottle in the shape of a cylinder has an inner radius of 4.0 cm, an outer radius of 4.5 cm, and a lengt of 30cm. The insulating walls have a thermal conductivity equal to 2.0 x 10^-5 cal/(sec-cm celsius). One liter of hot coffee at 90 degrees Celsius is poured into the bottle. If the outside wall remains at 20 degrees Celsius, how long does it take for the coffee to cool to 50 degrees Celsius?
