Why is the carnot cycle not a realistic model for steam power plants? a. isentropically pumping two-phase flow is not practical b. high moisture content in the turbine section c. seeking higher thermal efficiencies using other power cycles. d. limiting the heat transfer processes to two-phase systems.

The force on a cutting tool are 2600n vertically downward and 2100 horizontal. determine the resultant force acting on the tool and the angle at which it acts.

If a particle moves along a path such that r : (3 sin t) m and ? : 2t rad, where t is in seconds. what is the particle's acceleration in m/s in 4 seconds? a)- 16.43 b)- 16.29 c)- 15.21 d)- 13.79

Asingle-geared blanking press has a stroke of 200 mm and a rated capacity of 320 kn. a cam driven ram is assumed to be capable of delivering the full press load at constant force during the last 15 percent of a constant-velocity stroke. the camshaft has an average speed of 90 rev/min and is geared to the flywheel shaft at a 6: 1 ratio. the total work done is to include an allowance of 16 percent for friction a) estimate the maximum energy fluctuation b) find the rim weight for an effective diameter of 1.2 m and a coefficient of speed fluctuation of 0.10
