A75-kg block of iron casting at 600 k is thrown into a large lake that is at a temperature of 342 k. the iron block eventually reaches thermal equilibrium with the lake water. assuming an average specific heat of 0.18 kj/(kg. k) for the iron, determine the total entropy change for this process.

Machinery that is a key part of the process and without which the plant or process cannot function is classifed as: (clo4) a)-critical machinery b)-essential machinery c)-general purpose machinery d)-none of the specified options.

Acertain flow of air (at stp) has a velocity distribution given by v i (in ft/s). if this flow is going through a 4 ft square area in the yz-plane (centered at the origin), what is the mass flow rate (in lbm/s)?

An electrical kettle is made out of stainless steel, weighs two pounds (when empty) with a heating element that consumes 2 kw of electricity. assuming that the water and the kettle are at the same uniform temperature at any moment of time, calculate the shortest possible time to bring 2 quarts of water from room temperature to the onset of boiling.
