Light travels 186,282 miles in one second. A light year is the distance light travels in one year. It is about 4.3 light years to the nearest star, Proxima Centauri, (other than our sun!) How many miles away is Proxima Centauri? miles b)The distance from Los Angeles to New York is about 2,000 miles. If this distance is represented by the width of a grain of sand (say 1/100 of an inch) how many miles away would Proxima Centauri be? miles c) The diameter of our galaxy, the Milky Way, is about 100,000 light years. With this representation used in (b) what would the diameter of the Milky Way be (in miles under our scale)? miles d) Imagine we now represent the Milky Way by a single grain of sand. The universe is 15 billion light years across. How many feet would this correspond to? feet

Asteam power plant operates on an ideal reheat rankine cycle between the pressure limits of 15 mpa and 10 kpa. the mass flow rate of steam through the cycle is 12 kg/s. steam enters both stages of the turbine at 500°c. if the moisture content of the steam at the exit of the low-pressure turbine is not to exceed 10 percent, determine (a) the pressure at which reheating takes place, (b) the total rate of heat input in the boiler, and (c) the thermal efficiency of the cycle. also, show the cycle on a t-s diagram with respect to the saturation lines. (2.15 mpa; 45.0 mw; 42.6%)
