4.75 An air-conditioning system is shown in Fig. P4.75 in which
air flows over tubes carrying Refrigerant 134a. Air enters
with a volumetric flow rate of 50 m³/min at 32°C, 1 bar, and
exits at 22°C, 0.95 bar. Refrigerant enters the tubes at 5 bar
with a quality of 20% and exits at 5 bar, 20°C. Ignoring heat
transfer at the outer surface of the air conditioner, and
neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine at
steady state
(a) the mass flow rate of the refrigerant, in kg/min.
(b) the rate of heat transfer, in kJ/min, between the air and
refrigerant.

4.42 Steam enters a well-insulated turbine operating at steady
state at 4 MPa with a specific enthalpy of 3015.4 kJ/kg and a
velocity of 10 m/s. The steam expands to the turbine exit where
the pressure is 0.07 MPa, specific enthalpy is 2431.7 kJ/kg,
and the velocity is 90 m/s. The mass flow rate is 11.95 kg/s.
Neglecting potential energy effects, determine the power
developed by the turbine, in kW.
The two blocks A and B have weights WA = 60 lb and
WB = 10 lb. If the kinetic coefficient of friction between the
incline and block A is μk = 0.2, determine the speed of A
after it moves 3 ft down the plane starting from rest. Neglect
the mass of the cord and pulleys.

Barrow_forwardAs indicated by the derivation, the principle of work and energy is valid for observers in any inertial reference frame. Show that this is so, by considering the 10-kg block which rests on the smooth surface and is subjected to a horizontal force of 6 N. If observer A is in a fixed frame x, determine the final speed of the block if it has an initial speed of 5 m/s and travels 10 m, both directed to the right and measured from the fixed frame. Compare the result with that obtained by an observer B, attached to the x' axis and moving at a constant velocity of 2 m/s relative to A. Hint: The distance the block travels will first have to be computed for observer B before applying the principle of work and energy. A B 2 m/s 5 m/s 6 N 10 marrow_forward
