Which of the following equations is a correct energy conservation (round-trip potential difference) equation for this circuit, along a round trip path starting at the negative end of battery #1 and traveling counterclockwise through the circuit (that is, traveling to the left through the battery, and continuing on around the circuit in the same direction)?

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.

Different types of steels contain different elements that alter the characteristics of the steel. for each of the following elements, explain what the element does when alloyed with steel.
