Based on your reading of the following, what function can a quint serve at a four-story structure fire that a fire engine cannot? Some terms refer to the number of functions an apparatus can perform, so a quad can execute four functions and a quint can implement five. Quints are larger and rarer in the field. They are often confused with pump/engine apparatus that carry ladders or have mounted booms. The quint possesses a full load of hose, a water tank, a full-sized pump, and can carry personnel. The fifth function is that it includes a large aerial device.

A.) Quints can provide a continuous water supply.

B.) Quints can carry personnel.

C.) Quints can furnish an aerial ladder or elevated platform.

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.
