Problem #1
Water stored in a large, well insulated storage tank at 21C and
atmospheric pressure, is being pumped at steady state from this tank by a
pump at the rate of 40 cubic meters per hour. The motor driving the
pump supplies energy at the rate of 8.5 kW. The water is used as a cooling
medium and passes through a heat exchanger where 255 kW of heat is
added to the water. The heated water then flows to a second, large
vented tank, which is 25 meters above the first tank. Determine the final
temperature of the water delivered to the second tank.

Problem #2
Water at 298 K discharges from a nozzle and travels horizontally hitting a
flat vertical wall. The nozzle has a diameter of 12 millimeters and the
water leaves the nozzle with a flat velocity profile at a velocity of 6.0
meters per second. Neglecting frictional resistance of the air on the jet,
calculate the force in Newtons on the wall .

inverted U-tube manometer
containing oil of specific gravity of
SG less than unity. Determine the
manometer reading h.
