Air flows steadily through an adiabatic one-inlet and one-outlet turbine. the inlet conditions are 5mpa, 550k, and 120m/s and the exit conditions are 10 kpa, 325k, and 30m/s. the mass flow rate of air is 0.15kg/s. determine (a) the rate of work donw by the turbine, and (b) the turbine inlet area. neglect the effect of potential energy. assume air behaves like an ideal gas.

Derive the correction factor formula for conical nozzle i=-(1+ cosa) and calculate the nozzle angle correction factor for a nozzle whose divergence hal-fangle is 13 (hint: assume that all the mass flow originates at the apex of the cone.

Afoot bridge is made as a simple deck, 4 m long, with a cross section 2 m (wide) and 20 cm thick, and made of wood. the deck is supported at the two ends. the maximum load allowable on the bridge is 10 tons, provided it is uniformly distributed on the deck. to sense this load, a strain gauge is placed at the center of the bridge and its resistance is monitored. if the sensor has a nominal resistance of 350 s2 and a gauge factor of 3.6, what is the reading of the strain gauge at maximum load? the modulus of elasticity for the wood used in the construction is 10 gpa.

Asteel wire of 2 mm diameter is fixed between two points located 2 m apart. the tensile force in the wire is 250n, if its density of steel is given by 7830 kg/m3 the fundamental frequency of vibration hz? ?
