(a) will the electric field strength between two parallel conducting plates exceed the breakdown strength for air ( 3.0×106 v/m ) if the plates are separated by 2.00 mm and a potential difference of 5.0×103 v is applied? (b) how close together can the plates be with this applied voltage?

An open feedwater heater operates at steady state with liquid entering at inlet 1 with t? = 40°c and pl = 1 .2 mpa. water vapor att2-200°c and p2 = 1.2 mpa enters at inlet 2. saturated liquid water exits with a pressure of pa 1.2 mpa. neglect heat transfer with the surroundings and all kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the mass flow rate of steam at inlet 2 if the mass flow rate of liquid water at inlet 1 is given as 2 kg/s.
