A sound wave travels through a column of carbon monoxide at STP. Assuming a density of rho = 1.25 kg/m3 and a bulk modulus of β = 1.42 ✕ 105 Pa, what is the approximate speed (in m/s) of the sound wave?

Explain what will happen if decomposers were apsent from a forest ecoysystem.

Air enters a gas turbine with two stages of compression and two stages of expansion at 100 kpa and 17°c. this system uses a regenerator as well as reheating and intercooling – the intercooler returns the air to the inlet temperature. the pressure ratio across each compressor is 4 ; 300 kj/kg of heat are added to the air in each combustion chamber; and the regenerator operates perfectly while increasing the temperature of the cold air by 20°c. determine the system’s thermal efficiency. assume isentropic operations for all compressor and the turbine stages and use constant specific heats at room temperature.
