14.43 The spring attatched to the 0.2-kg collar has a stiffness of 220 N/m and a free length of 150 mm. If the collar isreleased from rest when x - 150 mm, determine its acceleration as a funtion of x. Neglect friction.

Afour cylinder four-stroke in-line engine has a stroke of 160mm, connecting rod length of 150mm, a reciprocating mass of 3kg and its firing order is 1-3-4-2. the spacing between cylinders is 100mm. i. show that the engine is in balance with regard to the primary inertia forces and primary 3. a and secondary inertia couples. li determine the out of balance secondary inertia force ii. propose ways of balancing this out of balance force and discuss the challenges that will arise

Plan an experiment to measure the surface tension of a liquid similar to water. if necessary, review the ncfmf video surface tension for ideas. which method would be most suitable for use in an undergraduate laboratory? what experimental precision could be expected?

Determine (a) the maximum thermal efficiency of reversible power cycles operating between a hot reservoir at 1000°c and a cold reservoir at 200°c and (b) the maximum cops for reversible refrigeration and heat pump cycies, respectively, between 28°c and 14°c.
