Car B is traveling a distance d ahead of car A. Both cars are traveling at 60 ft/s when the driver of B suddenly applies the breakes, causing his car to decelerate at 12 ft/s^2. It takes the driver of car A 0.75 s to react. When he applies his brakes, he decelerates at 15 ft/s^2. Determine the minimum distance d between the cars so as to avoid a collision

Apipe with an outside diameter of 15 cm is exposed to an ambient air and surrounding temperature of -20°c. the pipe has an outer surface temperature of 65°c and an emissivity of 0.85. if the rate of heat loss from the pipe surface is 0.95 kw per meter of length, the external convective heat transfer coefficient (h) is: (a) 12.5 w/m"k (b) 18.6 w/mk (c) 23.7 w/mk (d) 27.9 w/mk (e) 33.5 w/mk

Manometers are good examples of measuring instruments, nowadays they are not as common as before. a)-capacitive probe gauges b)-gravitational gauges deformation ) gauges d)-digital gauges

Assuming compressible flow of air and that the measurements are done at flagstaff a pitot static tube that gives the difference of total and static pressure measures 0.35 m of mercury. what is the velocity of air? assume the temperature to be 300k. (submit your excel or matlab calculation sheet)
