What should you do if your brakes fail? Hook your shoe under the pedal and see if you can free it. Pull the steering wheel back. Turn on your cruise control. Try pumping the brake pedal to increase pressure.

What are the differences and similarities of a compression wave and a transverse wave?

Use the frequency histogram to complete the following parts. ​(a) identify the class with the​ greatest, and the class with the​ least, relative frequency. ​(b) estimate the greatest and least relative frequencies. ​(c) describe any patterns with the data. female fibula lengths 30.5 31.5 32.5 33.5 34.5 35.5 36.5 37.5 38.5 39.5 0 0.05 0.1 0.15 0.2 0.25 length (in centimeters) relative frequency a histogram titled "female fibula lengths" has a horizontal axis labeled "length in centimeters" from 30.5 to 39.5 in increments of 1 and a vertical axis labeled "relative frequency" from 0 to 0.25 in increments of 0.05. the histogram contains vertical bars of width 1, where one vertical bar is centered over each of the horizontal axis tick marks. the approximate heights of the vertical bars are listed as follows, where the label is listed first and the approximate height is listed second: 30.5, 0.02; 31.5, 0.04; 32.5, 0.05; 33.5, 0.13; 34.5, 0.22; 35.5, 0.25; 36.5, 0.13; 37.5, 0.06; 38.5, 0.09; 39.5, 0.01. ​(a) the class with the greatest relative frequency is nothing to nothing centimeters. ​(type integers or decimals. do not round. use ascending​ order.)

As part of an industrial process, air as an ideal gas at 10 bar, 400k expands at steady state through a valve to a pressure of 4 bar. the mass flow rate of air is 0.5 kg/s. the air then passes through a heat exchanger where it is cooled to a temperature of 295k with negligible change in pressure. the valve can be modeled as a throttling process, and kinetic and potential energy effects can be neglected. (a) for a control volume enclosing the valve and heat exchanger and enough of the local surroundings that the heat transfer occurs at the ambient temperature of 295 k, determine the rate of entropy production, in kw/k. (b) if the expansion valve were replaced by an adiabatic turbine operating isentropically, what would be the entropy production? compare the results of parts (a) and (b) and discuss.
