A load of 2000 lb is to be supported from a construction crane by two vertical steel cables for which the Yield Stress in tension is 70 ksi and the Elastic Modulus is 29,000 ksi. Before the load is applied, cable AB is 60 inches long and cable AC is 60.04 inches long. a. Cable AC has a cross-sectional area of 0.02 in2 . Determine the cross-sectional area of cable AB, if the load is to be shared equally between both cables. b. Determine if either of the cables will yield. If so, which one?

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
