A small button placed on a horizontal rotating platform with diameter 0.324 mm will revolve with the platform when it is brought up to a rotational speed of 45.0 rev/minrev/min , provided the button is no more than 0.140 mm from the axis. Reqiured:
a. What is the coefficient of static friction between the button and the platform?
b. How far from the axis can the button be placed, without slipping, if the platform rotates at 60.0rev/m ?

There are two routes similar in terrain; however, one route has an incline of approximately 28 degrees, and you must decide on which route to take. what is the maximum road grade that your fully loaded ecv can climb?

Rank the six combinations of electric charges on the basis of the electric force acting on q1. define forces pointing to the right as positive and forces pointing to the left as negative. rank positive forces as larger than negative forces. q1,q2,q3 = positive(+) q1 = + q2 = + q3 = - q1 = + q2= - q3= + q1= - q2= + q3= + q1= + q2= - q3= - q1,q2,q3 = negative

Air enters a gas turbine with two stages of compression and two stages of expansion at 100 kpa and 17°c. this system uses a regenerator as well as reheating and intercooling – the intercooler returns the air to the inlet temperature. the pressure ratio across each compressor is 4 ; 300 kj/kg of heat are added to the air in each combustion chamber; and the regenerator operates perfectly while increasing the temperature of the cold air by 20°c. determine the system’s thermal efficiency. assume isentropic operations for all compressor and the turbine stages and use constant specific heats at room temperature.
