Amanufacturer provides a warranty against failure of a carbon steel product within the first 30 days after sale. out of 1000 sold, 10 were found to have failed by corrosion during the warranty period. total cost of replacement for each failed product is approximately $100,000, including the cost of environ-mental clean-up, loss of product, downtime, repair, and replacement. a. calculate the risk of failure by corrosion, in dollars. b. if a corrosion-resistant alloy would prevent failure by corrosion, is an incremental cost of $100 to manufacture the product using such an alloy justified? what would be the maximum incremental cost that would be justified in using an alloy that would prevent failures by corrosion?

Refrigerant 134a enters an insulated compressor operating at steady state as saturated vapor at -26°c with a volumetric flow rate of 0.18 m3/s. refrigerant exits at 9 bar, 70°c. changes in kinetic and potential energy from inlet to exit can be ignored. determine the volumetric flow rate at the exit, in m3/s, and the compressor power, in kw.
