The magnitude of the concentrated load is equal to the total load or the area under the curve. f = 18.0 kn the line of action of the concentrated load passes through the centroid of the area under the curve. x- = 63 kn m/18 kn x- = 3.5 m .

Amass of 1.5 kg of air at 120 kpa and 24°c is contained in a gas-tight, frictionless piston-cylinder device. the air is now compressed to a final pressure of 720 kpa. during the process, heat is transferred from the air such that the temperature inside the cylinder remains constant. calculate the boundary work input during this process.

What precautions should you take to prevent injuries when dealing with heavy loads?

An engine runs on the ideal diesel cycle. the cycle has a compression ratio of 20 and a cutoff ratio of 2. the highest temperature in the cycle is 1200 k. if the heat into the system is 300 kj/kg of working fluid and using variable specific heats determine the work produced per mass of working fluid
