Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their breeding grounds. Starting downstream, 2.85 m away from a waterfall 0.602 m in height, at what minimum speed must a salmon jumping at an angle of 28.5◦ leave the water to continue upstream? The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s^2. Answer in units of m/s.

Arigid tank is divided into two equal parts by a partition. one part of the tank contains 3 kg of compressed liquid water at 400 kpa and 60°c while the other part is evacuated. the partition is now removed, and the water expands to fill the entire tank. determine the entropy change of water during this process, if the final pressure in the tank is 40 kpa. use steam tables.
