A stone is thrown vertically downward from a certain height. If it touches the ground after 5 seconds, find the height from which it was dropped

As part of an industrial process, air as an ideal gas at 10 bar, 400k expands at steady state through a valve to a pressure of 4 bar. the mass flow rate of air is 0.5 kg/s. the air then passes through a heat exchanger where it is cooled to a temperature of 295k with negligible change in pressure. the valve can be modeled as a throttling process, and kinetic and potential energy effects can be neglected. (a) for a control volume enclosing the valve and heat exchanger and enough of the local surroundings that the heat transfer occurs at the ambient temperature of 295 k, determine the rate of entropy production, in kw/k. (b) if the expansion valve were replaced by an adiabatic turbine operating isentropically, what would be the entropy production? compare the results of parts (a) and (b) and discuss.

It can take some of those large , industrial vehicles up to feet to stop when traveling only 60 mph, and therefore , you shoukd be mindful to not be jn the traffic right in front of them a. 100 feet b. 200 feet c. 335 feet d. 425 feet
