A piston-cylinder device contains 5 kg of refrigerant-134a at 0.7 MPa and 60°C. The refrigerant is now cooled at constant pressure until it exists as a liquid at 24°C. If the surroundings are at 100 kPa and-24°C, determine: (a) the exergy of the refrigerant at the initial and the final states and
(b) the exergy destroyed during this process.

Suppose that an electromagnetic wave which is linearly polarized along the x−axis is propagating in vacuum along the z−axis. the wave is incident on a conductor which is placed at z > 0 region of the space. the conductor has conductivity σ, magnetic permeability µ and electric permittivity ε. (a) find the characteristic time for the free charge density which dissipates at the conductor. (b) write the maxwell equations and derive the wave equation for a plane wave propagating in a conductor. (c) find the attenuation distance at which the incident amplitude reduces to e ^−1 of its initial value. (d) find the electric and magnetic fields inside the conductor. 8 (e) find the power loss per area of the incident electromagnetic wave at the surface of conductor.

Standing side by side ,you and a friend step off a bridge at different times and fall for 1.6s to the water below.your friend goes first,and you follow after he has dropped a distance of 2.0m.when your friend hits the water,is the seperation between the two of you 2.0m or more than 2.0m? verify your answer with a calculation.
