Defining the system means which of the following. Developing a focus making the language clear labeling all of the elements putting questions in writing

What is the major difference between thermoplastics and thermosetting plastics from the polymerization structure point of view?

Ashielded metal arc-welding operation is accomplished in a work cell by a fitter and a welder. the fitter takes 5.5 min to load components into the welding fixture at the beginning of the work cycle, and 1.5 min to unload the completed weldment at the end of the cycle. the total ength of the weld seams 1200 mm, and the travel speed used by the welder averages 300 mm/min. every 600 mm of seam length, the welding stick must be changed, which takes 0.8 min. while the fitter is working, the welder is idle (resting): and while the welder is working the fitter is idle. (a) determine the average arc-on time as a fraction of the work cycle time. (b) how much improvement in arc-on time would result if the welder used flux-cored arc welding (manually operated), given that the spool of weld wire must be changed every 10 weldments, and it takes the welder 5.0 min to accomplish the change? (c) what are the production rates for these two cases (weldments completed per hour)? attach your work and solutions.

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.
