The tow truck weighs 7.83 kN. The wheel base (distance between the front wheel and the back wheel) is 6.3 m and the center of gravity of the truck is 2.15 m behind the front wheel. The load hangs from the tow truck 0.9 m behind the back wheel. Required:
How big can L be before the truck tips over?

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.

Manometers are good examples of measuring instruments, nowadays they are not as common as before. a)-capacitive probe gauges b)-gravitational gauges deformation ) gauges d)-digital gauges

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
