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?

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING UPVOTE WILL BE GIVEN. PLEASE WRITE THE COMPLETE SOLUTIONS LEGIBLY. SHOW THE STEP-BY-STEP PROCESS WITH SHORT COMMENT/EXPLANATION. ANSWER IN 4 DECIMAL PLACES. Two gaseous streams containing the same fluid enters a mixing chamber and leaves as a single stream. For the first gas the entrance conditions are A1=500 cm², v1=230 m/s, p1=1.60 kg/m³. For the second gas the entrance conditions are A2= 300 cm³, m2=8.84 kg/s, v2=0.502 m³/kg. The exit stream conditions is v3=130 m/s and v3=0.437 m3/kg. Determine the following: (a) the total mass flow leaving the chamber (kg/sec) (b) the velocity of the gas at 2. (m/sec)
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
