Two racecars are driving at constant speeds around a circular track. Both cars are the same distance away from the center of the track, but car 2 is driving twice as fast as car 1. The acceleration of car 2 is the acceleration of car 1. Two racecars are driving at constant speeds around a circular track.

Air enters a gas turbine with two stages of compression and two stages of expansion at 100 kpa and 17°c. this system uses a regenerator as well as reheating and intercooling – the intercooler returns the air to the inlet temperature. the pressure ratio across each compressor is 4 ; 300 kj/kg of heat are added to the air in each combustion chamber; and the regenerator operates perfectly while increasing the temperature of the cold air by 20°c. determine the system’s thermal efficiency. assume isentropic operations for all compressor and the turbine stages and use constant specific heats at room temperature.
