A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically, owing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes 3.20 s for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.700 m. The fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced 7.60 m apart. A. How fast are the waves traveling?
B. What is the amplitude of each wave?
C. If the total vertical distance traveled by the boat was 0.400 m, but the other data remained the same, how fast are the waves traveling?
D. If the total vertical distance traveled by the boat was 0.400 m, but the other data remained the same, what is the amplitude of each wave?

An open feedwater heater operates at steady state with liquid entering at inlet 1 with t? = 40°c and pl = 1 .2 mpa. water vapor att2-200°c and p2 = 1.2 mpa enters at inlet 2. saturated liquid water exits with a pressure of pa 1.2 mpa. neglect heat transfer with the surroundings and all kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the mass flow rate of steam at inlet 2 if the mass flow rate of liquid water at inlet 1 is given as 2 kg/s.
