A building of very great length has a width of 36 m. Its weight constitutes an applied stress of 240 kPa on the ground surface. Between the depths of 21 and 27 m there is a layer of soft clay. The rest of the subsoil is dense sand. Compute the applied vertical pressure due to the weight of the building, at the following points located in a horizontal plane at mid-height of the compressible layer: directly below centerline of building; and 6, 12 and 18 m from the centerline Directly below the centerline: I= Δσ =
6 m from centerline: I= Δσ =
12 m from centerline: I= Δσ =
18 m from centerline: I= Δσ =

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.

A2-m rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 100 kpa. the tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. steam is flowing in the supply line at 600 kpa and 300 c. the valve is opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. a thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the temperature at the final state is 200°c. determine (a) the mass of steam that has entered the tank (b) the amount of heat transfer.
