The 5 ft wide gate ABC is hinged at C and contacts a smooth surface at A. If the specific weight of the water is 62.4 lb/ft3 , find the support reaction components of the gate at A and C.

Amass of 1.5 kg of air at 120 kpa and 24°c is contained in a gas-tight, frictionless piston-cylinder device. the air is now compressed to a final pressure of 720 kpa. during the process, heat is transferred from the air such that the temperature inside the cylinder remains constant. calculate the boundary work input during this process.

Most leaks in reciprocating air compressors can be detected and minimized by: (clo4) a)-detecting leakage areas using ultrasonic acoustic detector. b)-tightening joints and connections c)-replacing faulty equipment d)-all of the given options

Aheavily insulated piston-cylinder device contains 0.02 m3 of steam at 300 kpa and 200 °c. 1.2 mpa. d this process. team is now compressed in a reversible manner to a pressure of etermine the entropy change and the work done on the steam during this process
