Use a Karnaugh map to build a circuit that receives 4 inputs A3, A2, A1, A0 and outputs 1 if either A3 ≥ A2 ≥ A1 ≥ A0 or A3 ≤ A2 ≤ A1 ≤ A0. Otherwise the output is 0. For example on input A3A2A1A0 = 0111 the output will be 1, on input A3A2A1A0 = 1100 the output will be 1, and on input A3A2A1A0 = 0101 the output will be 0. You are required to represent the function using a Karnaugh Map, to derive a simplified algebraic expression using the K-map, and to implement (i. e., draw) the corresponding circuit. You may use MUXs and/or decoders in your circuit implementation.

Determine whether or not it is possible to compress air adiabatically from k to 140 kpa and 400 k. what is the entropy change during this process?

Aheavily insulated piston-cylinder device contains 0.02 m3 of steam at 300 kpa and 200 °c. 1.2 mpa. d this process. team is now compressed in a reversible manner to a pressure of etermine the entropy change and the work done on the steam during this process

Acommercial grade cubical freezer, 4 m on a side, has a composite wall consisting of an exterior sheet of 5.0-mm thick plain carbon steel (kst= 60.5 w/m k), an intermediate layer of 100-mm thick polyurethane insulation (kins 0.02 w/m k), and an inner sheet of 5.0- mm thick aluminium alloy (kal polyurethane insulation and both metallic sheets are each characterized by a thermal contact resistance of r 2.5 x 104 m2 k/w. (a) what is the steady-state cooling load that must be maintained by the refrigerator under conditions for which the outer and inner surface temperatures are 25°c and -5°c, respectively? (b) for power saving purpose, which wall material should be increased/reduced in. thickness in order to reduce 50% of the cooling load found in part (a)? redesign the thickness of the proposed material. 177 w/m-k). adhesive interfaces between the q=575.93 w
