- semiarid or arid region on the leeward side of a mountain when prevailing winds flow up and over a high mountain, dropping moisture on the windward side

An air-standard stirling cycle operates with a maximum pressure of 600 psia and a minimum pressure of 10 psia. the maximum volume of the air is 10 times the minimum volume. the temperature during the heat rejection process is 100°f. calculate the specific heat added to and rejected by this cycle, as well as the net specific work produced by the cycle. use constant specific heats at room temperature. the properties of air at room temperature are r

Copper has free electrons per cubic meter. a 71.0-cm length of 12-gauge copper wire that is 2.05 mm in diameter carries 4.85 a of current. (a) how much time does it take for an electron to travel the length of the wire? (b) repeat part (a) for 6-gauge copper wire (diameter 4.12 mm) of the same length that carries the same current. (c) generally speaking, how does changing the diameter of a wire that carries a given amount of current affect the drift velocity of the electrons in the wire?

Astudent is given an assignment to demonstrate diffraction. he takes a photograph of a straw in a glass of water. the straw appears bent at the water level. which best describes this example? a) this is a good example of diffraction. b) this is an example of dispersion and not diffraction. c) this is an example of refraction and not diffraction. d) this is an example of reflection and not diffraction.
