Assignment: seismic waves research current events exploration for this lesson's graded assignment, you will do research on the internet to learn more about the role seismic waves play in earthquakes and tsunamis. your essay will address one of the following questions: • how does an underwater earthquake cause a tsunami? • why do some earthquakes cause more damage than others? here is a website and some keyword search terms to you get started. usgs earthquakes keywords search terms: earthquake formation, p wave, s wave, tsunami, earthquake travel, analyzing earthquakes your essay should do the following things: • discuss how the different types of waves are formed and describe how the waves travel • explain how scientists use waves to track and analyze earthquakes • cover recent events involving earthquakes and/or tsunamis that illustrate the points made in your explanation the essay should be about 350-450 words, which is 1-1.5 typed pages, double-spaced, using 12-pt. font. check the rubric to review how you will be graded for this assignment.

As part of an industrial process, air as an ideal gas at 10 bar, 400k expands at steady state through a valve to a pressure of 4 bar. the mass flow rate of air is 0.5 kg/s. the air then passes through a heat exchanger where it is cooled to a temperature of 295k with negligible change in pressure. the valve can be modeled as a throttling process, and kinetic and potential energy effects can be neglected. (a) for a control volume enclosing the valve and heat exchanger and enough of the local surroundings that the heat transfer occurs at the ambient temperature of 295 k, determine the rate of entropy production, in kw/k. (b) if the expansion valve were replaced by an adiabatic turbine operating isentropically, what would be the entropy production? compare the results of parts (a) and (b) and discuss.
