A Martian rover found an interesting rock that could contain signs of what Mars was like long ago. It grabbed it with its rover arm and raised it to a height of 0.2 m. Then it dropped it and found that it had a kinetic energy of 12 J when it struck the ground. Note that Mars has an acceleration due to gravity of 3.77 m/s2. Complete the following equations to determine the rock’s potential energy if it were brought to earth and dropped from a height of 1 meter. Use what you know about calculating gravitational potential energy to correctly set up and solve the equation.

Air is to be preheated by hot exhaust gases in a cross-flow heat exchanger before it enters the furnace. air enters the heat exchanger at 95 kpa and 20°c at a rate of 0.6 m^3/s. the combustion gases (cp = 1.10 kj/kg°c) enter at 160°c at a rate of 0.95 kg/s and leave at 95°c. determine the rate of heat transfer to the air and its outlet temperature.

The air in an automobile tire with a volume of 2.60 ft3 is at 70°f and 21 psig. determine the amount of air that must be added to raise the pressure to the recommended value of 30 psig. assume the atmospheric pressure to be 14.6 psia and the temperature and the volume to remain constant. the gas constant of air is ru = 53.34ft⋅lbflbm⋅r(1 psia144 lbf/ft2) = 0.3704 psia⋅ft3lbm⋅r the amount of air that must be added to raise the pressure is lbm
