If you rent a car, you can (1) return it with a full gas tank, (2) return it without filling it and pay $5.75/gallon, or (3) accept a fixed price of $60 for gas. The local price is $3.50/gallon for gasoline, and you expect this car to get 25 miles per gallon. The car has a 16-gallon tank. What choice should you make if you expect to drive: (a) 150 miles? (b) 300 miles? (c) 450 miles? (d) How do your answers change if stopping at the filling station takes 20 minutes and your time is worth $15/hr?

The speed of your automobile has a huge effect on fuel consumption. Traveling at 65 miles per hour (mph) instead of 55 mph can consume almost 20% more fuel. As a general rule, for every mile per hour over 55, you lose 2% in fuel economy. For example, if your automobile gets 30 miles per gallon at 55 mph, the fuel consumption is 21 miles per gallon at 70 mph. If you take a 400-mile trip and your average speed is 80 mph rather than the posted speed limit of 70 mph, what is the extra cost of fuel if gasoline costs $4.00 per gallon? Your car gets 30 miles per gallon (mpg) at 60 mph.
The gravitational acceleration on Mars is 3.72 m/s2. The density of water is 1000 kg/m3. Starting from these assumptions, estimate the specific weight of water on Mars in lbf/ft3. Note that when converting lbm (pounds mass) to lbf (pounds force), a unit conversion called gc is required (1 lbf = 32.2 lbm ft s-2). The conversion factor ensures that (under normal gravity), a 100 lbm load generates 100 lbf of gravitational force
Engineering economics Investing in Electrical Efficiency Two pumps capable of delivering 100 hp to an agricultural application are being evaluated in a present economy study. The selected pump will only be utilized for one year, and it will have no market value at the end of the year. Pertinent data are summarized as follows: ABC Pump XYZ PumpPurchase price $2,900 $6,200Maintenance cost $170 $510Efficiency 80% 90% If electric power costs $0.10 per kWh and the pump will be operated 4,000 hours per year, which pump should be chosen? Recall that 1 hp = 0.746 kW. Choose XYZ because it provides least cost.
