8. Two 40 ft long wires made of differing materials are supported from the ceiling of a testing laboratory. Wire (1) is made of material H and has a diameter of 3/8 in. Wire (2) is made of material K and has a diameter of 3/16 in. When a load of 225 lb is applied to its lower end, wire (1) stretches 0.10 in. When the same 225 lb load is applied to the lower end of wire (2), wire (2) stretches 0.25 in. Compare materials H and K. Which material has the greater modulus of elasticity? Which is the stiffer material?

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
