A certain wire has resistance R. Another wire, of the same material, has half the length and half the diameter of the first wire. The resistance of the second wire is:

Keneila is attempting to ski down a 20 m high friction free hill for the first time. she has a speed 10 m/s at the top. what is her kinetic energy when she is a the bottom, 20 m ? (a)2500 j (b)9800 j (c)12300 j (d)3100j (e)15000j

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%)

In a system, when potential energy decreases, then entropy also decreases. true false
