A farmer is building a grain mill. The grain is poured inside the mill from the top, and the farmer rotates the handle to grind the grain that goes through the mill. In 1–2 sentences, explain how she can improve the design of the mill to require less force for grinding.

An ideal otto cycle with air as the working fluid has a compression ratio of 8. the minimum and maximum temperatures in the cycle are 300 k and 1340 k. use constant specific heats at room temperature to determine (a) the amount of heat transferred to the air during the heat- addition kj/kg, (b) the thermal efficiency, and (c) the thermal efficiency of a carnot cycle ope limits. process, in rating between the same temperature
