Determine the critical buckling load and stress of an rectangular structural tube used as a column 38 feet long, pin connected top and bottom.

Apiston-cylinder device contains 0.1 m3 of liquid water and 0.9 m3 of water vapor in equilibrium at 800 kpa. heat is transferred at constant pressure until the temperature of water reaches 350 °c. determine (a) the quality of water at the initial state (b) the work associated with this process, (c) the heat associated with this process.

Asteam is contained in a rigid tank with a volume of 1 m3. initially, the pressure and temperature are 7 bar and 500 oc, respectively. the temperature drops due to cooling process. determine: (1) the temperature at which condensation begins in °c, (2) the fraction of the total mass that has condensed when the pressure decreased to 0.5 bar. (3) the volume in m3 occupied by saturated liquid at the final state?

Plan an experiment to measure the surface tension of a liquid similar to water. if necessary, review the ncfmf video surface tension for ideas. which method would be most suitable for use in an undergraduate laboratory? what experimental precision could be expected?
