The Edwards Plateau is noted for containing many caves that were partly formed by geologic activity millions of years ago. What else could have contributed to the formation of these cave systems and aquifers?

Air is to be preheated by hot exhaust gases in a cross-flow heat exchanger before it enters the furnace. air enters the heat exchanger at 95 kpa and 20°c at a rate of 0.6 m^3/s. the combustion gases (cp = 1.10 kj/kg°c) enter at 160°c at a rate of 0.95 kg/s and leave at 95°c. determine the rate of heat transfer to the air and its outlet temperature.

Awheel of mass 48 kg is lifted to a height of 0.8 m. how much gravitational potential energy is added to the wheel? acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.8 m/s2. a. 30.4 j b. 3.1 j c. 297.9 j d. 11,321 j

The bar of prob. 5/82 is repeated here. the ends of the 0.4-m bar remain in contact with their re- spective support surfaces. end b has a velocity of 0.5 m/s and an acceleration of 0.3 m/s2 in the di- rections shown. determine the angular accelera- tion of the bar and the acceleration of end a.
