A 20 kip load is applied at point B to a rigid bar that is connected to a A-36 steel cables at point A and C. The steel cables attach to supports at D and E. The steel cables have a cross-sectional area = 0.3 in2. Determine the vertical displacement of points A, B, and C.

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

Afluid flows with a velocity field given by v=(x/t)i.. determine the local and convective accelerations when x=3 and t=1.
