What is one advantage of nuclear energy?

Air enters a compressor operating at steady state at 1.05 bar, 300 k, with a volumetric flow rate of 93 m3/min and exits at 12 bar, 400 k. heat transfer occurs at a rate of 15.5 kw from the compressor to its surroundings. assuming the ideal gas model for air neglecting kinetic potential energy effects, determine the power in put in kw.

Awind turbine is rotating counterclockwise at 0.5 rev/s and slows to a stop in 10 s. its blades are 20 m in length. (a) what is the angular acceleration of the turbine? (b) what is the centripetal acceleration of the tip of the blades at t=0s? (c) what is the magnitude and direction of the total linear acceleration of the tip of the blades at t=0s?

Consider the growth of a 20-nm-diameter silicon nanowire onto a silicon wafer. the temperature of the wafer surface is maintained at 2400 k. assume the thermal conductivity of the silicon nanowire is 20 wm-1k-1 and all its surfaces including the tip are subjected to convection heat transfer with the coefficient h = 1×105 wm-2k-1 and t∞ = 8000 k. when the nanowire grows to l = 300 nm, what is the temperature of the nanowire tip (t (x =
