Air (c-1.006 kj/kg.k, r-0.287 kj/kg.k) enters a nozzle steadily at 280 kpa and 77°c with a velocity of 50 m/s and exits at 85 kpa and 320 m/s. the heat losses from the nozzle to the surrounding medium at 20°c are estimated to be 3.2 kj/kg. determine (a) the exit temperature and (b) the total entropy change for this process. solve this problem using constant specific heats.

Two microscope slides are placed horizontally, one on top of the other, with a drop of a dishwashing liquid between them. the gap between the slides is 1 mm. a machine pulls the top slide to the right with a velocity of 0.15 millimeters per second while the bottom slide is held stationary. a stress gage indicates that a shearing stress of 0.5 pa is required to pull the top slide with this velocity. if the dishwashing liquid adheres to both slides during this process, what is the viscosity of the liquid? specify whether your answer is dynamic or kinematic viscosity, and use appropriate units.
