Water at p1 = 20 bar, t1 = 400oc enters a turbine operating at steady state and exits at p2 = 1.5 bar, t2 = 240oc. the water mass flow rate is 4000 kg/hour. stray heat transfer and kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. determine the power produced by the turbine, in kw, and the rate of entropy production in the turbine, in kw/k.

Consider the particle-in-a-box problem in 1d. a particle with mass m is confined to move freely between two hard walls situated at x = 0 and x = l. the potential energy function is given as (a) describe the boundary conditions that must be satisfied by the wavefunctions ψ(x) (such as energy eigenfunctions). (b) solve the schr¨odinger’s equation and by using the boundary conditions of part (a) find all energy eigenfunctions, ψn(x), and the corresponding energies, en. (c) what are the allowed values of the quantum number n above? how did you decide on that? (d) what is the de broglie wavelength for the ground state? (e) sketch a plot of the lowest 3 levels’ wavefunctions (ψn(x) vs x). don’t forget to mark the positions of the walls on the graphs. (f) in a transition between the energy levels above, which transition produces the longest wavelength λ for the emitted photon? what is the corresponding wavele

When you jump from an elevated position you usually bend your knees upon reaching the ground. by doing this, you make the time of the impact about 10 times as great as for a stiff-legged landing. in this way the average force your body experiences is a) less than 1/10 as great. b) more than 1/10 as great. c) about 1/10 as great.d) about 10 times as great.

Consider a hydrogen atom in the ground state. what is the energy of its electron? =e= jj now consider an excited‑state hydrogen atom. what is the energy of the electron in the =5n=5 level? =e5= j
