2. During a steady flow process, the pressure of the working substance drops from 1,380 kpa to 138 kpa, the speed increases from 61 m/s to 305 m/s, the internal energy of the open system decreases 58.1 KJ/kg, and the specific volume increases from 0.0625 m3/kg to 0.5 m3/kg. No heat is transferred, determine the work in KW if the mass flow at the rate of 272.15 kg/hr.
after solving, pls explain why u got the answer really need an explanation thank u so much pls explain in sentences. will rate
