Tom has built a large slingshot, but it is not working quite right. He thinks he can model the slingshot like an ideal spring with a spring constant of 55.0 N / m . When he pulls the slingshot back 0.235 m from a nonstretched position, it just does not launch its payload as far as he wants. His physics professor "helps" by telling him to aim for an elastic potential energy of 17.0 J . Tom decides he just needs elastic bands with a higher spring constant. By what factor does Tom need to increase the spring constant to hit his potential energy goal

Steam is generated in a boiler of a cogeneration plant at 10 mpa and 450°c at a steady rate of 5 kg/s. in normal operation, steam expands in a turbine to a pressure of 0.5 mpa and is then routed to the process heater, where it supplies the process heat. steam leaves the process heater as a saturated liquid and is pumped to the boiler pressure. in this mode, no steam passes through a condenser, which operates at 20 kpa. (a) determine the power produced in the turbine and the rate at which process heat is supplied in this mode. (b) determine the power produced in the turbine and the rate of process heat supplied if only 60 percent of the steam is routed to the process heater and the remainder is expanded to the condenser pressure.
