A car is traveling up a 2% grade at 70 mi/h on good, wet pavement. The driver brakes to try to avoid hitting stopped traffic that is 250 ft ahead. The driver's reaction time is 0.5 s. At first, when the driver applies the brakes, a software flaw causes the antilock braking system to fail (brakes work in non-antilock mode with 80% efficiency), leaving 80 ft skid marks. After the 80 ft skid, the antilock brakes work with 100% efficiency. How fast will the driver be going when the stopped traffic is hit if the coefficient of rolling resistance is constant at 0.013? (Assume minimum theoretical stopping distance and ignore aerodynamic resistance.)

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.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
