The present worth of income from an investment that follows an arithmetic gradient is projected to be $475,000. The income in year one is expected to be $25,000. What is the gradient each year through year 6 at an interest rate of 10% per year? I found this on another site:
475,000 = 25,000(P/A,10%,6) + G(P/G,10%,6)
475,000 = 25,000(4.3553) + G(9.6842)
9.6842G = 366,117.50
G = $37,805.65

If the thermal strain developed in polyimide film during deposition is given as 0.0044. assume room temperature is kept at 17.3 c, and thermal coefficient of expansion for the film and the substrate are 54 x 10^-6c^-1 and 3.3 x 10^-6c^-1respectively. calculate the deposition temperature.

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.

During a steady flow process, the change of energy with respect to time is zero. a)- true b)- false
