Find the sum of the vectors: 40m/s2 northeast, 10 m/s2 northeast

Air enters a gas turbine with two stages of compression and two stages of expansion at 100 kpa and 17°c. this system uses a regenerator as well as reheating and intercooling – the intercooler returns the air to the inlet temperature. the pressure ratio across each compressor is 4 ; 300 kj/kg of heat are added to the air in each combustion chamber; and the regenerator operates perfectly while increasing the temperature of the cold air by 20°c. determine the system’s thermal efficiency. assume isentropic operations for all compressor and the turbine stages and use constant specific heats at room temperature.

Robin is swinging back and forth from a trapeze. in which of the following situations is his kinetic energy being transformed into potential energy

Brian is speaking to you and a group of friends. he explains that nuclear power plants are essentially nuclear bombs waiting to explode. this is very worrisome to your friends. which statement is best suited to discredit brian and put your friends at ease? select all that apply. -nuclear power plants and nuclear bombs both use nuclear fission to generate energy, but a nuclear power plant very precisely controls the intensity of the reaction while a nuclear bomb releases the energy in one big explosion. -nuclear power plants use nuclear fusion to generate energy, but a nuclear bomb relies on nuclear fission. since, their reactants differ, their reactions differ. -nuclear power plants have never exploded in their 60 year history. -you agree with brian's statement.
