How does the low pressure associated with a hurricane help them to grow big and powerful? a. Air in the atmosphere tends to move toward low-pressure regions, which would increase the winds surrounding a hurricane
b . low-pressure regions pish away other air in the atmosphere, which would make the hurricane bigger
c. low pressure air heats up the water and therefore makes the hurricane stronger
d. low pressure conditions means slow winds, which makes the hurricane stronger

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.

The force on a cutting tool are 2600n vertically downward and 2100 horizontal. determine the resultant force acting on the tool and the angle at which it acts.
