NOTE: Light waves are electromagnetic waves, NOT mechanical waves; however, the principles of energy and intensity for electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves are exactly the same. The following problem illustrates this idea. The problem could just as well have been a problem of sound with a given intensity falling upon your eardrum for a specified amount of time. GBA Light of intensity 4.00 W/m2 passes through the pupil of one of your eyes and eventually falls on your retina. The radius of the pupil is controlled by the iris. In a human eye, the radius of the pupil can vary from about 1.0 mm to about 3.5 mm. The area of the opening can be calculated from pi (3.1416) times the radius squared. If your pupil is open to a radius of 2.5 mm, how much light energy passes through in one minute

Steam is generated in a boiler of a cogeneration plant at 10 mpa and 450°c at a steady rate of 5 kg/s. in normal operation, steam expands in a turbine to a pressure of 0.5 mpa and is then routed to the process heater, where it supplies the process heat. steam leaves the process heater as a saturated liquid and is pumped to the boiler pressure. in this mode, no steam passes through a condenser, which operates at 20 kpa. (a) determine the power produced in the turbine and the rate at which process heat is supplied in this mode. (b) determine the power produced in the turbine and the rate of process heat supplied if only 60 percent of the steam is routed to the process heater and the remainder is expanded to the condenser pressure. (3.32 mw; 9.69 mw; 4.25 mw; 5.82 mw)

Atwo-stage air compressor operates at steady state, compression 10m^3/min of air from 100 kpa and 300k to 1200 kpa. an intercooler between the two stages cools the air to 300k at a constant pressure of 350 kpa. the compression processes are isentropic. a) calculate the power required to run the compressor, in kw b) compare the result to the power required for isentropic compression from the same inlet state to the same final pressure.
