There is a cantilever beam with a rectangular cross-section, loaded with uniformly distributed loading. As a result of this loading, considerable shear forces develop within the beam. The width of the beam is 120cm, while the height of the beam is 50cm. If you are required to design the beam against shear, would you use the shear formula? Explain the reason for your answer with 3 sentences, maximum.

An air compression refrigeration system is to have an air pressure of 100 psia in the brine tank and an allowable air temperature increase of 60°f for standard vapor compression cycle temperatures of 77 f entering the expansion cylinder and 14 f entering the compression cylinder, calculate the coefficient of performance a. 2.5 b 3.3 c. 4.0 d. 5.0

Aquick transition of the operating speed of a shaft from its critical speed will whirl amplitude. (a) increase (b) limit (c) not affect (d) zero

An open feedwater heater operates at steady state with liquid entering at inlet 1 with t? = 40°c and pl = 1 .2 mpa. water vapor att2-200°c and p2 = 1.2 mpa enters at inlet 2. saturated liquid water exits with a pressure of pa 1.2 mpa. neglect heat transfer with the surroundings and all kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the mass flow rate of steam at inlet 2 if the mass flow rate of liquid water at inlet 1 is given as 2 kg/s.
