A heat engine is operating on a Carnot cycle and has a thermal efficiency of 47 percent. The waste heat from this engine is rejected to a nearby lake at 60 deg. F at a rate of 800 Btu/min. Determine a) the power output of the ending (Approx 17 hp) and b) the temperature of the source (Approx 1000 R).

One kind of e-book display consists of millions of very small spheres that float in a thin fluid layer between two conducting transparent plates. each sphere is black on one side and white on the other, and possesses an electric dipole moment directed from the white side to the black. when an electric field is applied between the plates, the spheres rotate so that their dipole moment lines up with the field. depending on the fields direction, either the black or the white sides of th espheres can be made visible. the dipole moment of the spheres can be modeled as two opposite charges of magnitude 3.5 x 10^-15 c, separated by a distancce of 100 micrometers (um). what is the maximum possible torque on a sphere if the electric field between the transparent plates is 4.0 x 10^5 n/c

Two wooden members of 80 × 120-mm uniform rectangular cross section are joined by the simple glued scarf splice shown. knowing that β = 22° and that the maximum allowable stresses in the joint are, respectively, 400 kpa in tension (perpendicular to the splice) and 690 kpa in shear (parallel to the splice), determine the largest centric load p that can be applied using mohr's circle. (round the final answer to two decimal places.)
