A fill covering a wide area is to be placed at the surface of this profile. The fill has a total unit weight of 20 kN/m^3 and is 3 m thick. Assume that the data for the sample at 7.0 m are representative of the entire clay profile. Also assume that the clay is heavily over consolidated and that the danse sands at the surface of the profile are so stiff that they do not contribute to the settlement. Find the settlement of the surface due to compression of the clay layer

1kg of water contained in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes two processes in series from an initial state where the pressure is 3.0 bar and the temperature is 150°c process 1-2: the water is compressed isothermally to a volume of 0.25 m^3 with 120 kj of work being done to the system. process 2-3: the water is heated at constant volume to a final pressure of 10 bar. a. find the change in internal energy for the system. b. calculate the amount of heat transferred, in kj. c. sketch both processes on a t-v diagram. (196.33 kj/kg, 76.33 kj)
