A hollow steel tube has a diameter of 300 mm, wall thickness of 20 mm and a length of 500 mm. A slot 20 mm wide is machined through the wall thickness and along the whole length of the
tube. The tube is positioned on a rigid horizontal surface with the slot at one extreme of a
horizontal diameter. A force W is then applied on the upper surface along the vertical diameter
and uniformly along the length of the tube. Calculate the magnitude of this force which is
necessary to just close the slot

For the closed feedwater heater below, feedwater enters state 3 at a pressure of 2000 psia and temperature of 420 °f at a rate of ix10 ibhr. the feedwat extracted steam enters state 1 at a pressure of 1000 psia and enthalpy of 1500 btu/lbm. the extracted er leaves at an enthalpy of 528.7 btu/lbm steam leaves as a saturated liquid. (16) a) determine the mass flow rate of the extraction steam used to heat the feedwater (10) b) determine the terminal temperature difference of the closed feedwater heater

Prove the equivalence between the two statements of the 2nd law of thermodynamics (i.e., a violation of one statement leads to the violatio the other statement)
