The anchor shown is used to tie tower guy cables to the ground and is supported by a distributed force from the soil, which can be approximated as shown. The anchor also is subjected to the loads shown, where P1 = 5 kNand P2 = 3 kN . The anchor is made from aluminum with E = 69 GPa . It is a cylindrical rod with diameter d1 = 4 cm with three segments of length L = 2 m . One end of the rod is linearly tapered to a diameter of d2 = 2 cm.

a. Calculate the intensity of the reaction load, Po

b. Use the reaction found in Part A, po = 13 kN/m , and calculate the total change in length for the anchor.

Steam at a pressure of 100 kpa and a quality of 50% initially fills a rigid vessel having a volume of 0.5 m^3. the steam is then heated, causing the pressure in the vessel to rise to 150 kpa. determine: i. the mass of the steam in the vessel. ii. the temperature and quality of the steam after the heating process. ii the mass of the vapour, mg and liquid, m in the vessel after the heating process. if the steam in the vessel is now further heated, what would the pressure and temperature in the vessel be when all steam has turned into saturated vapour? b. sketch the processes in part (a) and part (b) on p-v and t-v diagrams, indicating clearly the temperatures, pressures and the paths. c.
