You have been asked to design a machine to move a large cable spool up a factory ramp in 30 seconds. the spool is made of two 6.0 ft diameter disks of wood with iron rims connected together at their centers by a solid cylinder 1.0 ft wide and 3.0 ft long. sometime later in the manufacturing process, cable will be wound around the cylinder. for now the cylinder is bare but the spool still weighs 200 lbs. your plan is to attach a thin ring around the cylinder and pull the spool up the ramp with a rope attached to the top of this ring. the spool will then roll without slipping up the ramp on its two outside disks at a constant speed. to finish the design you need to calculate how strong the rope must be to pull the spool when it is moving up the ramp at a constant speed. the ramp has an angle of 27o from the horizontal and the rope will be parallel to the ramp. a set of light weight bearings minimizes the friction between the ring and the cylinder and fixes the orientation of the ring so that the rope always pulls from its top. the diameter of the ring is essentially the same as that of the cylinder.

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.

A2-m rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 100 kpa. the tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. steam is flowing in the supply line at 600 kpa and 300 c. the valve is opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. a thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the temperature at the final state is 200°c. determine (a) the mass of steam that has entered the tank (b) the amount of heat transfer.
