The bore diameter of each cylinder in a six-cylinder four-stroke internal combustion engine is 32 mm and the stroke of each piston is 125 mm. During testing, the engine runs at 1450 revolutions per minute (rpm) with a pressure-volume indicator diagram showing a mean net area of 2.90 cm2 and a diagram length of 0.85 cm. The pressure scale on the indicator diagram is set to 165 kN/m? per cm. Calculate the mean effective pressure (m.e.p) and the indicated power in kilowatts (kW) developed by this six-cylinder four-stroke engine. Give your answer to 2 decimal places.
Problem 1: A certain rigid aluminum container contains a liquid at a gauge pressure of P0 = 2.02 × 105 Pa at sea level where the atmospheric pressure is Pa = 1.01 × 105 Pa. The volume of the container is V0 = 2.15 × 10-4 m3. The maximum difference between the pressure inside and outside that this particular container can withstand before bursting or imploding is ΔPmax = 2.41 × 105 Pa.For this problem, assume that the density of air maintains a constant value of ρa = 1.20 kg / m3 and that the density of seawater maintains a constant value of ρs = 1025 kg / m3. Part (a) The container is taken from sea level, where the pressure of air is Pa = 1.01 × 105 Pa, to a higher altitude. What is the maximum height h in meters above the ground that the container can be lifted before bursting? Neglect the changes in temperature and acceleration due to gravity with altitude. Part (c) Choose the correct answer from the following options. The depth below the surface of the ocean…

Write an equation for the equilibrium temperature of the system T in terms of ma, Ta, mw, Tw, and the specific heat capacity of the air ca and the water cw. T = ( mw cw Tw + ma ca Ta )/( mw cw + ma ca ) Part (d) Calculate the final temperature of the system in kelvin, assuming a constant specific heat for the water of cw = 4180 J/kg⋅K and a constant specific heat capacity for the air of ca = 1010 J/kg⋅K.…
