The first Tacoma Narrows Bridge in Washington crossed over a strait in Puget Sound. At the time the suspension bridge was built, construction workers noticed that it moved up and down in the wind. Measures to stop the bridge's movement were ineffective, but the bridge was opened to the public on July 1, 1940. The bridge collapsed on November 7, 1940. Luckily, no people were seriously injured. Determine which technological design criteria the Tacoma Narrows Bridge did and did not meet. Explain your answer.

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.

Aplayground slide is 8.80 ft long and makes an angle of 25.0° with the horizontal. a 63.0-kg child, initially at the top, slides all the way down to the bottom of the slide. (a) choosing the bottom of the slide as the reference configuration, what is the system's potential energy when the child is at the top and at the bottom of the slide? what is the change in potential energy as the child slides from the top to the bottom of the slide? (include the sign of the value in your answer.)
