A box of bananas weighing 40 N rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.4, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.2. If no horizontal force is applied to the box and the box is at rest, how large is the friction force exerted on the box? 8 N

16 N

6 N

0 N

To protect all four receptacles on a branch circuit that surrounds a swimming pool, you would install which of the following configurations? a. gfci feed-through receptacle at the end of the load's circuit b. gfci-terminated receptacle at the beginning of the load's circuit c. gfci feed-through receptacle at the beginning of the load's circuit and the other receptacles connected to the load side of that receptacle d. gfci-terminated receptacle at each end of the load's circuit

In a wind tunnel the speed changes as the cross sectional area of the tunnel changes. if the speed in a 6' x 6' square test section is 100 mph, what was the speed upstream of the test section where the tunnel measured 20' x 20'? use conservation of mass and assume incompressible flow. conservation of mass requires that as the flow moves through a path or a duct the product of the density, velocity and cross sectional area must remain constant; i.e., that ova-constant. a model is being tested in a wind tunnel at a speed of 100 mph if the flow in the test section is at sea level standard conditions, what is the pressure at the model's stagnation point? (a) the tunnel speed is being measured by a pitot-static tube connected to a u- tube manometer. what is the reading on that manometer in inches of water? (b) at one point on the model a pressure of 2058 psf is measured. what is the local airspeed at that point?

Acoal-fired plant generates 600 mw of electric power. the plant uses 4.8 x 10^6 kg of coal each day, and the heat of combustion of coal is 3.3x 10^7 j/kg. the steam that drives the turbines is at a temperature of 300° c, and the exhaust water is at 37° c. (a) what is the overall efficiency of the plant for generating electric power? (b) how much thermal energy is exhausted each day? (c) what is the change in entropy of the universe for this heat engine? (d) using the same heat reservoirs, what is the maximum possible (carnot) efficiency for a heat engine?
