2. In studying for your CBEMS 125B exam, you get hungry and decide to boil some water in a pot to make instant noodles. You put your aluminum spoon, with a long handle (i.e. good to use "long fin approximation"), in the pot in anticipation of stirring the noodles into the boiling water. However, your phone rings, and you leave the spoon in the boiling water on the stove for quite a while (i.e. the system reaches steady-state conditions) before you come back to it. The boiling water is at 100°C and room temperature is 25°C. The spoon has a square handle that is 0.6 cm per side. At a handle height of 8 cm, the temperature of the long aluminum spoon is 62°C. The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents lists a maximum surface temperature of 58°C as a "safe" touchable temperature for metals. Is the spoon safe to pick up at a handle height of 12 cm? Justify your answer with calculations.

An electric hot water heater consumes 3.1 kilowatts of electricity and converts it to heat. How long will it take the water heater to heat a 67 gallon tank of water from 10 degrees Celsius to 50 degrees Celsius? (1 kilogram of water is 0.37 gallons, 1 Calorie = 4200 J). It may be helpful to refer back to the weekly handout for guidance on this problem. Your final answer should be in minutes (rounded to the nearest 10 minutes).
Scenario 1:You work as a design engineer in SpaceX which is a space exploration company that produces re-usablespace rockets. Space rockets in the past used to be disposable, the fact that they only serve for one timethen get lost in the space. SpaceX proposed a re-usable rocket, that can go to outer space, deliver someequipment, satellites, or even people to the outer space, and get back to earth to land again in a specifiedparking point. Where it can be re-fuelled, go through careful maintenance, and go through anotherjourney again. You are regularly requested by your manager to provide technical reports andtheoretical explanations about the main components and operational concepts related to these spaceshuttles. [https://www.spacex.com/]Task 1:Concerned with the number of maintenance visits the rocket can undergo before being out of service, you havebeen informed that the recent statics show a that after the first journey to the outer space, the rocket was sentto service once, and…
I posted this question and was told it was too complex to answer. I would like to know why. I would figure that a question meant for a college student could be answered by experts with "Masters and PhDs." Is there a table or chart I need to provide for the refrigerant, R-134A? I just need some help, haha
Problem: Insufferable Enlightenment era scientists are a lot like insufferable frat boys/sorority girls - they just cannot get enough of themselves. One of the most well-known "big brain" contests in their history was a Europe-wide challenge presented by a certain Swiss scientist called Johann Bernoulli (who already had his own solution so that he could pompously show off once the submissions came in). He asked the "leading minds of the world" the following: What is the curve along which a particle, under constant gravitational acceleration g, would descend from one arbitrary point to another within the fastest duration of time? Fancily called the brachistochrone problem (derived from the Greek word for just "shortest time"), Bernoulli's initial solution used the law of refraction as the result of applying the principle of least time to a light particle. Let's give this solution a shot ourselves. (a) Consider an initial point of (xo, 0), both parameterised by time t. Our goal is to…
Question 4: A person informs an engineer that he frequently feels cooler in the summer when standing in front of an open refrigerator. The engineer tells him that he is only “imagining things” because there is no fan in the refrigerator to blow the cool air over him. A lively argument ensues. Whose side of the argument do you take? Why?

Hello, I am a mechanical engineering student and want to upload this question as I have an exam in early June about thermodynamics. I have been given a question that will help me answer my exams in June. Please could you answer showing step by step guidance on how to answer this question with the formula clearly shown. Thank you very much
XYZ Company Ltd has consulted your firm Zig-Zag Energy over an intention to generate electricity in Ghana. Being the senior project engineer for Zig-Zag Energy, management has asked you to prepare a detailed technical report in respect to the project. a) Discuss the major factors to take into consideration when consulting on such projects. A tank containing air is stirred by a paddle wheel. The work input to the paddle wheels is 2000KJ and the heat transferred to the surrounding from the tank is 6000KJ. b) Determine the change in the internal energy of the system There has been a sharp differences between the board of Blue-Blue Energy over which of the energy sources (hydroelectric power plant-HEP and Coal fired plant) is best for power generation. As an energy expert, you were confronted by the debating faction for your opinion. You…
You and two friends find yourself craving a fresh pizza while preparing for the final exam on the engineering economy. You can't spend time picking up the pizza and you have to have it shipped. 'Pick-up-Sticks' offers 1-1/4-inch thick (including toppings), 20-inch square pizza with your option of two toppings for $15 plus 5 percent sales tax, and $1.50 delivery fee (no sales tax on delivery price). "Fred's" offers Sasquatch round, deep-dish, which is 20 inches in diameter. It is 1-3/4 inches thick, contains two toppings, and costs $17.25 plus sales tax of 5 percent and free delivery. (1) What is the problem in this situation? Please state that clearly and specifically. (2) Apply the seven principles of engineering economy systematically to the problem you set out in Part (1) (3) If your common unit of measurement is dollars (i.e., cost), what is the better value for having a pizza based on the criterion of reducing cost per unit volume? (4) What other criteria might be used to select…
1 "16. You have just moved to a hot, dry climate where it is 37C and 20% rh, and the heat is starting to get to you. Luckily you remember from your Building Science education mention of something called a swamp cooler (evaporative cooler, that cools air by EVAPORATING water into the air). Before building one, you want to know to what temperature you could cool the air to without exceeding 80% rh. Use the psychrometric chart to find the answer. (within 1.5C)" 17. What temperature must the inside surface of a window be at for indoor winter air at 40% rh and 23C to begin condensing on its surface? (within 1.5C)
