Consider a space shuttle weighing 100 kn. it is travelling at 310 m/s for 30 minutes. at the same time, it descends 2200 m. consider a drag of 12 kn on the shuttle. calculate the work done by the shuttle engine.

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.

An external consultant recommends that a plant installs a bank of capacitors for power factor correction. this will reduce the peak electrical demand charges by an average of 93 kw every month. the plant current pays $13 per kw in peak demand charges. the capacitor bank will include 223 kw of fixed capacitors, and 183 of variable capacitors. the fixed capacitors cost $59 per kw, and the variable capacitors will cost $65 per kw. the consultant charges 21% of the equipment costs to install the capacitors. because this project will reduce the demand for the electric utility, they are prepared to provide a one-time rebate of $42 per kw of reduced demand. what is the simple payback period for this project (in years)?

Apinion having 30 involute teeth of 6,5 module rotates at 220 r/min and transmits 2 kw to a gear wheel having 70 teeth; the addendum on both wheels is 4 of the circular pitch and the angle of obliquity is 200. determine; 3.1 the lengths of the path of approach and the arc of approach 3.2 the normal force between the teeth at an instant when there is only one pair of teeth in contact
