1. A metal block 2.5 ft square and 1.5 ft deep remains submerged on a body of liquid which consists of a 12-in layer of water above a 10-in layer of mercury. The block of metal weighs 120 lb/ft3. What is the distance (measured from the bottom) of the block within the mercury (s=13.6)?

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.

During a steady flow process, the change of energy with respect to time is zero. a)- true b)- false
