Acar is traveling up a 3% grade, with the speed of 85mph, on a road that has good, wet pavement. the radius of the wheels is 15 inches, the driveline slippage is 3%, and the overall gear reduction ratio is 2.5 to 1. a deer jumps out onto the road and the driver applies the brakes 290-ft from it. the driver hits the deer at a speed of 20mph. if the driver did not have antilock brakes, and the wheels were locked the entire distance, would a deer-impact speed of 20mph be possible? (hint: check the braking efficiency) [use theoretical stopping distance]

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.
