Ashaft is to transmit 3.5 kw power while rotating at 350 rpm. if the shaft is made of plain carbon steel with 100 mpa yield strength, calculate: a) torque being transmitted by the shaft b) diameter of the shaft

If you were designing a bumper for a car, would you prefer it to exhibit elastic or plastic deformation? why? consider the functions of a bumper in both a minor "fender-bender" and a major collision.

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

An ideal otto cycle with air as the working fluid has a compression ratio of 8. the minimum and maximum temperatures in the cycle are 300 k and 1340 k. use constant specific heats at room temperature to determine (a) the amount of heat transferred to the air during the heat- addition kj/kg, (b) the thermal efficiency, and (c) the thermal efficiency of a carnot cycle ope limits. process, in rating between the same temperature
