Q5. A 1.5-kg specimen of a 90 wt% Pb–10 wt% Sn alloy is heated to 250°C (480°F); at this temperature it is entirely an α-phase solid solution. The alloy is to be melted to the extent that 50% of the specimen is liquid, the remainder being the α phase. This may be accomplished either by heating the alloy or changing its composition while holding the temperature constant. (10 points) (a) To what temperature must the specimen be heated? (b) How much tin must be added to the 1.5-kg specimen at 250°C to achieve this state?

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.

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
