A) Calculate the cross-sectional area, in mm², of a piece of copper wire, 40 m in length
and having a resistance of 0.25 2. Take the resistivity of copper as 0.02 x 10-6 22 m.
b) A coil of 20 2 resistance is joined in parallel with a coil of R2 resistance. This
combination is then joined in series with a piece of apparatus A, and the whole circuit
connected to 100 V mains. What must be the value of R so that A shall dissipate 600
W with 10 A passing through it?
c) A load taking 200 A is supplied by copper and aluminium cables connected in parallel.
The total length of conductor in each cable is 200 m, and each conductor has a cross-
sectional area of 40 mm2. Calculate:
the voltage drop in the combined cables;
the current carried by each cable; .
the power wasted in each cable. Take the resistivity of copper and aluminium
as 0.018 um and 0.028 um respectively.

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
