You’re driving your car towards an intersection. a porsche is stopped at the red light. you’re traveling at 36 km/h (10 m/s). as you are 15 m from the light, the light turns green, and the porsche accelerates from rest at 3 m/s2. you continue at constant speed. a. how far from the stop line do you pass the porsche? at what time, measured from when the light turned green, do you pass the porsche? b. as the porsche keeps accelerating, it eventually catches up to you again. how far from the stop line does it pass you? at what time, measured from when the light turned green, does it pass you? c. if a boston police officer happens to get you and the porsche on a radar gun at the instant the porsche passes you, will either of you be pulled over for speeding? assume the speed limit is 50 km/h.

Air enters a gas turbine with two stages of compression and two stages of expansion at 100 kpa and 17°c. this system uses a regenerator as well as reheating and intercooling – the intercooler returns the air to the inlet temperature. the pressure ratio across each compressor is 4 ; 300 kj/kg of heat are added to the air in each combustion chamber; and the regenerator operates perfectly while increasing the temperature of the cold air by 20°c. determine the system’s thermal efficiency. assume isentropic operations for all compressor and the turbine stages and use constant specific heats at room temperature.

Athin electrical heater is inserted between a long circular rod and a concentric tube with inner and outer radii of 20 and 40 mm. the rod (a) has a thermal conductivity of ka = 0.15 w/(m*k), while the tube (b) has a thermal conductivity of kb = 0.8 w/(m*k) and its outer surface is subjected to convection with a fluid of temperature t= -15°c and heat transfer coefficient 60 w/(m2 *k). the thermal contact resistance between the cylinder surfaces and the heater is negligible. (a) determine the electrical power per unit length of the cylinders (w/m) that is required to maintain the outer surface of cylinder b at 15°c. (b) what is the temperature at the center of cylinder a?

Tornadoes form in unusually violent thunderstorms when there is sufficient (1) instability and (2) wind shear present in the lower atmosphere. elaborate on what does instability mean when discussing the formation of a tornado? a) dry air in the middle atmosphere being rapidly cooled by rain b) winds at all levels of the atmosphere are strong and turn with height c) an isolated strong thunderstorm just ahead of a squall line that merges with the squall line d) very warm, humid conditions in the lower atmosphere; cooler than usual conditions in the upper atmosphere
