Lester was an aerospace engineer who was developing a parachute for
a spacecraft that would land on
Mars. He needed to add a vent at
the center of the parachute so the
spacecraft would land smoothly.
However, the spacecraft would
have to travel at a high speed
before landing. If the vent was too
big or too small, the parachute
might swing wildly at this speed.
The movement could damage the
spacecraft.
So, to help decide how big the vent should be, Lester put a parachute
with a 1 m vent in a wind tunnel. The wind tunnel made it seem like
the parachute was moving at 200 km per hour. He observed the
parachute to see how much it swung.
Which of the following could Lester's test show?

Me ! a 2 µc charge q1 and a 2 µc charge q2 are 0.3 m from the x-axis. a 4 µc charge q3 is 0.4 m from the y-axis. the distances d13 and d23 are 0.5 m. find the magnitude and direction of the resulting vector r. round your answer to the nearest tenth.

In a steady-flow steam power plant system, two adiabatic high-pressure and low-pressure turbines ane used to generate power. superheated steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 8 mpa and 550°c. the steam expands in the high-pressure turbine to a saturated vapor at 3 mpa. in order to increase the powe generation of the power plant, another steam turbine working in a lower pressure ranges is deployed. the outlet vapor from the first turbine is heated up at a boiler to the temperature of 500 c at the constant pressure of first turbine's outlet (3 mpa). then, the vapor enters the second turbine and produces extra work. the exit conditions of the second turbine are 5o kpa and 90 percent quality. if the total power output of the power plant is 25 mw, determine a) the mass flow rate of the water (kg/s). b) heat transfer rate in the boiler (mw).

Imagine you work as a consultant, and your daily job involves listening to the constructive criticism of others. as part of your job, you must listen to opposing viewpoints to make important decisions. in this activity, you are a consulting dam engineer. you must make a decision about four different dams; should they be repaired, taken down, or left alone? you will listen to contrasting opinions about what should be done with the dams before you make the final decision. as the consulting dam engineer, what do you decide to do with this dam? explain your reasoning. by making your decision, did you support the opinions of the mayor and/or the dam safety official? why or why not?
