Determine the maximum shear stress in the strut if it is subjected to a shear force of v = 20 kn.

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

An air conditioning system consist of a 5 cm diameter pipe, operating at a pressure of 200 kpa. the air initially enters the pipe at 15°c with a velocity of 20 m/s and relative humidity of 80%. if the heat supply throughout the process is 960 w, determine the relative humidity and the temperature at the outlet
