Quick Sort question: Suppose you choose the first element as a pivot in the list {45, 11, 50, 59, 60, 2, 4, 7, 10}. Using the quick sort partition algorithm that we discussed in the lecture, what is the new list after the first partition? What is the pivot selected for the partition?

45, 11, 50, 59, 60, 2, 4, 7, 10
60, 11, 50, 59, 45, 2, 4, 7, 10
60, 50, 11, 59, 45, 2, 4, 7, 10
2, 4, 10, 7, 11, 45, 60, 59, 50
2, 7, 4, 11, 10, 45, 60, 59, 50
2, 4, 7, 10, 11, 45, 50, 59, 60
Ans: pivot point =

Apiston-cylinder with a volume of 0.25 m3 holds 1 kg of air (r 0.287 k/kgk) at a temperature of 100 c. heat transfer to the cylinder causes an isothermal expansion of the piston until the volume triples. how much heat is added to the piston-cylinder?

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.

Give heat transfer applications for the following, (i) gas turbines (propulsion) ) gas turbines (power generation). (iii) steam turbines. (iv) combined heat and power (chp). (v) automotive engines
