Water vapor at 100 psi, 500 F and a velocity of 100 ft./sec enters a nozzle operating at steady sate and expands adiabatically to the exit, where the pressure is 40 psia. If the isentropic nozzle efficiency is 95%, determine for the nozzle,

(a) the exit velocity of the steam in ft./sec, and
(b) the amount of entropy produced in BTU/ lbm R.

The y form of iron is known as: a) ferrite b) cementite c) perlite d) austenite

Aplate clutch has a single pair of mating friction surfaces 250-mm od by 175-mm id. the mean value of the coefficient of friction is 0.30, and the actuating force is 4 kn. a) find the maximum pressure and the torque capacity using the uniform-wear model. b) find the maximum pressure and the torque capacity using the uniform-pressure model.

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.
