A series RL circuit is built with 190 Ω resistor and a 5.0-cm-long, 1.0-cm-diameter solenoid with 800 turns of wire.
A) What is the peak magnetic flux through the solenoid if the circuit is driven by a 12 V, 5.0 kHz source?
B) What capacitance, in μF, has its potential difference increasing at 1.5×106 V/s when the displacement current in the capacitor is 0.60 A ?

(a) The solubility product, Ksp, of
Sn(OH)4(s) is 1.0 x 10-57. What is its
solubility (in g/L) in an aqueous solution of NaOH with a pH of
12.80 ? The temperature is 25oC.
(b) For the reaction 2 A(g) ⇋ 3 B(g) + 2 C(g), we start off with
just pure A(g) (there is no B(g) or C(g)). When we reach
equilibrium, the partial pressure of C(g) is 4.19 atm. The
equilibrium constant for this reaction is 8.39 . What is the
partial pressure of A(g) at equilibrium? What was the initial
pressure of A(g)?

Air (cp = 1.0 kJ/kgK) enters an air conditioning system at 40C with a mass flow rate of 1.5 kg/s. The air is cooled by exchanging heat with a stream of R-134a refrigerant that enters the heat exchanger at -8C and 20% quality, and exits with 100% quality. If 25 kW of heat is transferred out of the air, determine: (40 pts) i) Mass flowrate of R-134a (kg/hr) ii) Exit temperature of air (C) iii) Exit pressure of R-134a (kPa)

Suppose today two-year US treasury bill is 2.15% and the two-year UK treasury bill is 1.0%. Further suppose today spot exchange rate is USD 1.25 per Euro and you know you will receive one million euro exactly two years from now and you will have to exchange those Euros in USD at that time. Can you engineer a guaranteed exchange rate at which you will be able to exchange the Euros for USD two years from now? Explain the arrangements.

Rainfall rates for successive 20-min periods of a 140-min storm are 1.5, 1.5, 6.0, 4.0, 1.0, 0.8, and 3.2 in/hr, totaling 6.0 in. Determine the rainfall excesses for successive periods by the Green-Ampt model and then report the cumulative storm runoff [in] below. Assume a saturate hydraulic conductivity of 0.8 in/hr, a porosity of 0.62, an initial moisture content of 0.28, and an average capillary suction of 7.2 in. The depression storage is 0.5 in.
