A rocket is to be designed to produce 5 MN of thrust at sea level. The pressure in the combustion chamber is 7 MPa and the temperature is 2800 K. If the working fluid is assumed to be a perfect gas with the properties of air at room temperature, determine the following: (a) specific impulse, (b) mass flow rate, (c) throat diameter, (d) exit diameter. For the same nozzle find (e) thrust at 30-kM altitude; (f) thrust at sea level if chamber pressure were increased to 21 MPa; (g) thrust with hydrogen at the same inlet stagnation conditions; and (h) thrust with stagnation temperature increased to 3600 K.

What difference(s) did you notice using a pneumatic circuit over hydraulic circuit.explain why the pneumatic piston stumbles when it hits an obstacle.

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.
