Rest experiences total internal reflection and exits the prism at the horizontal base. The colors of light that emerge from the slanted face may be chosen by varying the index of refraction of the material surrounding the prism. Determine the required index of refraction of the surrounding material for each of the following cases. (a) Only red, orange, yellow, green, and blue light refract from the slanted face of the prism into the surrounding material. (Express your answer to 4 significant

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.

What’s #16 asking me and how do i solve it?

An athlete is holding 24 lb of weights at a height of 6 inches above the stack as shown. to lower the weights, she applies a constant force of 5 lb to the handle. determine the velocity of the weights immediately before they hit the stack.
