Wind turbines help fill a need for renewable energy. Scientists discovered that certain whales have bumpy fins, which move through the water with less resistance than smooth fins. Engineers want to use this discovery to make more efficient blades for wind turbines. Identify a question that scientists would need to ask to address this problem.

Which from the following instrument is commonly used to detect the high pitch butzing sound in bearings? [clo4] a)-digital ultrasonic meter b)-infrared camera c)-spectroscopic d)-vibrometer

Explain the strain-hardening phenomenon on the basis of dislocation - dislocation strain field interactions. also, briefly describe what generally happens to the ductility of a metal that has been strain hardened (i.e. does strain hardening make a metal more ductile or

Consider a power plant with water as the working fluid that operates on an ideal rankine cycle. it has a net power output of 45mw. superheated steam enters the turbine at 7mpa and 500°c (h=3411.4 kj/kg; s=6.8 kj/kg k) and is cooled in the condenser at a pressure of 10 kpa by running cooling water from a lake through the tubes of the condenser at a rate of 2000 kg/s. (a) show the cycle on a t-s diagram (a right schematic is fine - you do not need to calculate the temperatures at each point); (b)-determine the work done by the turbine and the pump in kj/kg; (c)-the mass flow rate of water used by the power plant; (d)-the thermal efficiency of the cycle; (e)-the temperature rise of the cooling water. assume the cooling water is incompressible with cp 4.18 kj/kg°c.
