The tibia bone in the lower leg of an adult human will break if the compressive force on it exceeds about 4 x 10^5 n (we assume that the ankle is pushing up). suppose that you step off a chair that is 0.40 m above the floor. if landing stiff-legged on the surface below, what minimum stopping distance do you need to avoid breaking your tibias? indicate any assumptions you made in your answer to this question.

Asteam power plant operates on an ideal reheat rankine cycle between the pressure limits of 15 mpa and 10 kpa. the mass flow rate of steam through the cycle is 12 kg/s. steam enters both stages of the turbine at 500°c. if the moisture content of the steam at the exit of the low-pressure turbine is not to exceed 10 percent, determine (a) the pressure at which reheating takes place, (b) the total rate of heat input in the boiler, and (c) the thermal efficiency of the cycle. also, show the cycle on a t-s diagram with respect to the saturation lines. (2.15 mpa; 45.0 mw; 42.6%)
