A small experimental vehicle has a total weight W of 1225 lb including wheels and driver. Each of the four wheels has a weight of 85 lb and a centroidal radius of gyration of 20 in. Total frictional resistance R to motion is 94 lb and is measured by towing the vehicle at a constant speed on a level road with engine disengaged. Determine the power output of the engine for a speed of 35 mi/hr up the 13-percent grade (a) with zero acceleration and (b) with an acceleration of 8 ft/sec2. (Hint: Power equals the time rate of increase of the total energy of the vehicle plus the rate at which frictional work is overcome.)

A2-m rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 100 kpa. the tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. steam is flowing in the supply line at 600 kpa and 300 c. the valve is opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. a thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the temperature at the final state is 200°c. determine (a) the mass of steam that has entered the tank (b) the amount of heat transfer.
