Assume a person is making a 350 mile trip from Amherst to Washington DC has four modes available to them: air; auto; train; ship. Describe the results for 3 different travelers that value their time at $10, $30, and $100, respectively if the following associated costs and parameters are also involved (hint: convert variables to $): Air $2.00 per mile at 3 hours
Auto $0.50 per mile at 8 hours
Train $0.25 per mile at 10 hours
Ship S0.25 per mile at 15 hours
1. Which mode wins out for each of the 3 travelers?
2. Which mode would you select, and why?

If the thermal strain developed in polyimide film during deposition is given as 0.0044. assume room temperature is kept at 17.3 c, and thermal coefficient of expansion for the film and the substrate are 54 x 10^-6c^-1 and 3.3 x 10^-6c^-1respectively. calculate the deposition temperature.

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.
