. An automobile travels along a straight road at 15.65 m/s through a 11.18 m/s speed zone. A police car observed the automobile. At the instant that the two vehicles are abreast of each other, the police car starts to pursue the automobile at a constant acceleration of 1.96 m/s2 . The motorist noticed the police car in his rear view mirror 12 s after the police car started the pursuit and applied his brakes and decelerates at 3.05 m/s2 . (Hint: The police will not go against the law.) a) Find the total time required for the police car to overtake the automobile. (12 marks) b) Find the total distance travelled by the police car while overtaking the automobile. (2 marks) c) Find the speed of the police car at the time it overtakes the automobile. (2 marks) d) Find the speed of the automobile at the time it was overtaken by the police car. (2 marks)

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
