- Hi. I am trying to practice this problem using a checker online, but everytime I recalculate my answer it always says it's incorrect. So far I have calculated and tried to input the following values: 1 hp, 1.01 hp, and 0.8 hp but it always keeps saying they are incorrect. Am I missing a sign change? (Should the answer be negative?) Or am I solving this incorrectly and getting the wrong value each time? Please help show me the correct steps on how to get the correct answer as I am trying to learn this process. Thank you!arrow_forwardSolve the following problems.Show your correct and complete solution for this problem. Box your final answers and express in two decimal places.Sketch the schematic diagrams. Initially, a rigid tank contains 500L of water at 300°C. By volume, the tank contains60% liquid and 40% vapor. At the bottom of the tank, as shown, a valve is opened and half of the mass of water is withdrawn which is in the liquid phase. Heat transfer takes place such that the temperature within the tank is constant. Determine the heat transfer in kJ required to withdraw half of its mass and maintain its temperature.arrow_forwardThe vertical distance above a reference datum to a point is called the point’sarrow_forward

THANK YOU In Rizal province, one of its power plants has been thoroughly monitored for possible conversion into a wind power plant. A propeller wind turbine is to be used. Survey showed that Rizal Province at a height of 10 meters above the ground has a minimum wind speed of 7.1 miles per hour duringthe month of June and a maximum wind speed of 12.9 miles per hour during the month of January. The minimum temperature is at 75 degree Fahrenheit during the month of January and maximum temperature is at 89 degree Fahrenheit during the month of May. The existing power plant has an output of 54MW. For the proposed wind power, the power coefficient of turbine is 35% and the generator efficiency is 95%.
