During a steady-flow process 5,000 kg/h of fluid passes through an apparatus in which the exit pipe is 2 m below the level of the inlet connection. Penitent data regarding the working fluid are pressure decreases from 700 to 140 kPa; velocity increases from 60 to 360 m/s; internal energy decreases by 50 kJ/kg; specific volume increases from 0.06 to 0.36 m3 /kg. If the heat radiated from the apparatus is 10,000 kJ/h, calculate the work exchanged with the surroundings in kW. Indicate the direction of the work
