On a cold (5F) day 30 gallon per minute of water is being pumped from a well to a storage tank 100 ft above the level of the water in the well. The temperature of the well water is 350 F. Although the storage tank and water lines are insulated, they still loose 5000 Btu/hr to air. To avoid having the water freeze, a heater puts 1000 Btu/min into the water line. The motor that operates the water pump is 5 hp and 30% efficient, i. e. 30% of the energy goes into the water and the rest is dissipated to the air. If the storage tank is initially empty, what is the temperature of the water in the tank after one hour. Assume that the storage tank is vented to the atmosphere.

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.
