If the wheels lock when braking suddenly the vehicle: a: loses traction b: lose steering wheel ability c: gain speed slightly d: gain steering ability

An ideal otto cycle has a compression ratio of 10.5, takes in air at 90 kpa and 40°c, and is repeated 2500 times per minute. using constant specific heats at room temperature, determine the thermal efficiency of this cycle and the rate of heat input if the cycle is to produce 90 kw of power.

The space between two 15-in.-long concentric cylinders is filled with glycerin (viscosity = 8.5 × 10-3 lb·s/ft2). the inner cylinder has a radius of 1 in. and the gap width between cylinders is 0.1 in. determine (a) the torque and (b) the power required to rotate the inner cylinder at 180 rev/min. the outer cylinder is fixed. assume the velocity distribution in the gap to be linear.
