Air enters the compressor of an ideal gas refrigeration cycle at 17°C and 35 kPa and the turbine at 47°C and 160 kPa. The mass flow rate of air through the cycle is 0.3 kg/s. Assume variable specific heats for air.
Determine the net power input.
The net power input is kW.

Air flows through a 0.25-m-diameter duct. At the inlet the velocity is 300 m/s, and the stagnation temperature is 90°C. If the Mach number at the exit is 0.3, determine the direction and the rate of heat transfer. For the same conditions at the inlet, determine the amount of heat that must be transferred to the system if the flow is to be sonic at the exit of the duct.

In a specific population of people, cancer is found in 0.8% of the people. If a person does have the disease, a diagnostic procedure will identify the presence of cancer in 93% of such people. If a person does not have cancer, this diagnostic procedure will give a false-positive result 0.3% of time. What is the probability that a person with a positive test result has cancer.
