Based on the chart, which statement describes the economic condition of American farm workers during the 1920s? The entry of more women into the workforce meant fewer women were available for farm work. Overproduction reduced crop prices and kept farm workers from enjoying the general prosperity of the times. Subsidies and other government programs allowed farm workers' incomes to match those in industry. Higher prices for farm products resulted in a higher standard of living for all farm workers.

Water vapor initially at 10 bar and 400 °c is contained within a piston-cylinder assembly. the water lost heat to the surrounding according to isochoric (iso-volumetric) process until its temperature is 150 °c. the water is then condensed isothermally to saturated liquid. for the water as a system, calculate the work in kj/kg

At steady state, air at 200 kpa, 325 k, and mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s enters an insulated duct having differing inlet and exit cross-sectional areas. the inlet cross-sectional area is 6 cm2. at the duct exit, the pressure of the air is 100 kpa and the velocity is 250 m/s. neglecting potential energy effects and modeling air as an 1.008 kj/kg k, determine ideal gas with constant cp = (a) the velocity of the air at the inlet, in m/s. (b) the temperature of the air at the exit, in k. (c) the exit cross-sectional area, in cm2
