) The larger impurities and cloudy sediments in the water of aquarium may be removed by means of filtering, as shown in the figure. For this reason, the water in the aquarium must be recirculated through the filter at a volumetric flow rate of 0.0004ab m3/s. The water in the aquarium is forced through the filter by using the pressurized air from an aerotor pump. The cross-sectional areas of the glass tube and plastic tube are 0.0001ab m2 and 0.00002ab m2 respectively. Assume that densities of water, air and air-water mixture are 99a, b kg/m3, 1.1ab kg/m3 and 9ab kg/m3 respectively. Atmospheric pressure is 10ab25 Pa. Neglecting all the losses, determine i-the pressure difference that must be created by the aerator pump
ii-the volumetric flow rate of the air through the plastic tube
iii- the power that must delivered by the aerator pump for overall efficiency %6a, b.

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.

Water at 70°f and streams enter the mixing chamber at the same mass flow rate, determine the temperature and the quality of the exiting stream. 0 psia is heated in a chamber by mixing it with saturated water vapor at 20 psia. if both streams enters the mixing chamber at the same mass flow rate, determine the temperature and the quality of the existing system.

Asolid cylinder is concentric with a straight pipe. the cylinder is 0.5 m long and has an outside diameter of 8 cm. the pipe has an inside diameter of 8.5 cm. the annulus between the cylinder ad the pipe contains stationary oil. the oil has a specific gravity of 0.92 and a kinematic viscosity of 5.57 x 10-4 m2/s. most nearly, what is the force needed to move the cylinder along the pipe at a constant velocity of 1 m/s?
