A shock wave from an explosion travels at Mach 3 towards a building. The shock reflects from the building wall and travels back in the direction it came from. There is a pile of firewood outside the building that experiences both the incident and reflected shocks. You can treat both as normal shocks. Given the wood has an auto-ignition temperature of 800K (i. e., the temperature at which it will spontaneously ignite), does the wood ignite? When does it ignite (i. e., after the passage of the first shock or the second shock or never?) Before the explosion happened the conditions near the building are 300K and 1 atm pressure.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
