In this problem, we will explore how deepening the pipeline affects performance in two ways: faster clock cycle and increased stalls due to data and control hazards. Assume that the original machine is a 5-stage pipeline with a 1 ns clock cycle. The second machine is a 12-stage pipeline with a 0.6 ns clock cycle. The 5-stage pipeline experiences a stall due to a data hazard every five instructions, whereas the 12-stage pipeline experiences three stalls every eight instructions. In addition, branches constitute 20% of the instructions, and the misprediction rate for both machines is 5%.

a. What is the speedup of the 12-stage pipeline over the 5-stage pipeline, taking into account only data hazards?

b. If the branch mispredict penalty for the first machine is 2 cycles but the second machine is 5 cycles, what are the CPIs of each, taking into account the stalls due to branch mispredictions?

Water at 70°f and streams enter the mixing chamber at the same mass flow rate, determine the temperature and the quality of the exiting stream. 0 psia is heated in a chamber by mixing it with saturated water vapor at 20 psia. if both streams enters the mixing chamber at the same mass flow rate, determine the temperature and the quality of the existing system.

Water in a partially filled large tank is to be supplied to the roof top, which is 8 m above the water level in the tank, through a 2.2-cm-internal-diameter pipe by maintaining a constant air pressure of 300 kpa (gage) in the tank. if the head loss in the piping is 2 m of water, determine the discharge rate of the supply of water to the roof top in liters per second.
