Suppose that data are stored on 8.54-gbyte single-sided, double-layer dvds that weigh 15 g each. suppose that an eurostar rail service train, london to paris via chunnel, carries 10 4 kg of these dvds. the great circle distance of the line is 640 km and the traveling time is 2 hours, 15 minutes. what is the data transmission rate in bits per second of this system?

An air-standard stirling cycle operates with a maximum pressure of 600 psia and a minimum pressure of 10 psia. the maximum volume of the air is 10 times the minimum volume. the temperature during the heat rejection process is 100°f. calculate the specific heat added to and rejected by this cycle, as well as the net specific work produced by the cycle. use constant specific heats at room temperature. the properties of air at room temperature are r

Select the three ways that the parallel-plate capacitor differs from a car battery.

The man of mass m1 and the woman of mass m2 are standing on opposite ends of the platform of mass m0 which moves with negligible friction and is initially at rest with s = 0. the man and woman begin to approach each other. derive an expression for the displacement s of the platform when the two meet in terms of the displacement x1 of the man relative to the platform.
