An 1875kg car going at 23m/s hitd from behind 1025kg going at 17m/s the same direction. The two cars stick together. How fast do the two cars move together immediately after coalition

As part of an industrial process, air as an ideal gas at 10 bar, 400k expands at steady state through a valve to a pressure of 4 bar. the mass flow rate of air is 0.5 kg/s. the air then passes through a heat exchanger where it is cooled to a temperature of 295k with negligible change in pressure. the valve can be modeled as a throttling process, and kinetic and potential energy effects can be neglected. (a) for a control volume enclosing the valve and heat exchanger and enough of the local surroundings that the heat transfer occurs at the ambient temperature of 295 k, determine the rate of entropy production, in kw/k. (b) if the expansion valve were replaced by an adiabatic turbine operating isentropically, what would be the entropy production? compare the results of parts (a) and (b) and discuss.

When considering gravity acceleration and the force of acceleration, what must be true? a. the direction of acceleration must be perpendicular to the direction of the force. b. the direction of the force and the direction of acceleration must be the same as each other. c. the direction of the force and the direction of acceleration must be opposite of each other. d. the mass of the body must be the same as the acceleration of the body.
