An air-standard dual cycle has a compression ratio of 14 and a cutoff ratio of 1.2. the pressure ratio during the constant-volume heat addition process is 1.5. determine the thermal efficiency, amount of heat added, the maximum gas pressure and temperature when this cycle is operated at 80 kpa and 20°c at the beginning of the compression. use constant specific heats at room temperature.

An engine, weighing 3000 n, is supported on a pedestal mount. it has been observed that the engine induces vibration into the surrounding area through its pedestal at the maximum operating speed. determine the stiffness of the dynamic vibration absorber spring in (n/m) that will reduce the vibration when mounted on the pedestal. the magnitude of the exciting force is 250 n, and the amplitude of motion of the auxiliary mass is to be limited to 2 mm note: in this question type-in right numbers, no decimals, no fractions, no unit. approximate to right number if needed
