Three balls with the same radius 18 cm are in water. Ball 1 floats, with half of it exposed above the water level. Ball 2, with a density 842 kg/m^3 is held below the surface by a cord anchored to the bottom of the container, so that it is fully submerged. Ball 3, of density 1218 kg/m^3, is suspended from a rope so that it is fully submerged. Assume the density of water is 1000 kg/m^3 in this problem.
(a) Which is true for Ball 1?
MultipleChoice :
1) The magnitude of the buoyancy force is exactly one half of that of the ball's weight.
2) The magnitude of the buoyancy force is more than that of the ball's weight.
3) The magnitude of the buoyancy force is less than that of the ball's weight.
4) The magnitude of the buoyancy force is equal to that of the ball's weight.
(b) What is the tension on the rope holding the second ball, in newtons?
(c) What is the tension on the rope holding the third ball in N?

Steam is generated in a boiler of a cogeneration plant at 10 mpa and 450°c at a steady rate of 5 kg/s. in normal operation, steam expands in a turbine to a pressure of 0.5 mpa and is then routed to the process heater, where it supplies the process heat. steam leaves the process heater as a saturated liquid and is pumped to the boiler pressure. in this mode, no steam passes through a condenser, which operates at 20 kpa. (a) determine the power produced in the turbine and the rate at which process heat is supplied in this mode. (b) determine the power produced in the turbine and the rate of process heat supplied if only 60 percent of the steam is routed to the process heater and the remainder is expanded to the condenser pressure.
