Aracecar is able to speed around a curve on a racetrack with no problem when it is dry outside. however, when the racetrack is wet, the car skids off the track.

which of these best explains why the car skids when it is wet?
a. water decreases the force of friction on the track.
b. water increases the force of gravity on the track.
c. water decreases the force of gravity on the track.
d. water increases the force of friction on the track.

In a steady-flow steam power plant system, two adiabatic high-pressure and low-pressure turbines ane used to generate power. superheated steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 8 mpa and 550°c. the steam expands in the high-pressure turbine to a saturated vapor at 3 mpa. in order to increase the powe generation of the power plant, another steam turbine working in a lower pressure ranges is deployed. the outlet vapor from the first turbine is heated up at a boiler to the temperature of 500 c at the constant pressure of first turbine's outlet (3 mpa). then, the vapor enters the second turbine and produces extra work. the exit conditions of the second turbine are 5o kpa and 90 percent quality. if the total power output of the power plant is 25 mw, determine a) the mass flow rate of the water (kg/s). b) heat transfer rate in the boiler (mw).
