Chapter 7, Problem 1RQ
In 2001 , the first iPodTM by Apple had a rated battery life of 10 hours (h) to run audio files. The 6th model, introduced in 2009, had rated battery life of 36 hours [h] to run audio files. If the average song is 3.5 minutes [min], how many more songs can you listen to using the 6th model iPod rather than the original iPod on a single battery charge?

However, after colliding with an iceberg at dawn on April 15, 1912, two rivers were formed, and out of the 2,200 people on board, 1,500 people, including the captain, sank with the ship. According to a later investigation, the “temperature change theory” (DBTT theory) was the most promising cause of the sinking. Give a brief guess of the cause of the ship's sinking in relation to temperature.arrow_forwardFrom a fundamental point of view, there are two distinct ways to describe motion.

A free-falling object such as a bungee jumper is subject to the upward force of air resistance. We assumed that this force was proportional to some power b of velocity as in Fu=CaVb where Fy = the upward force of air resistance [N = kg m/s2 ], Ca = drag coefficient (kg/m), and V = velocity [m/s]. An individual is suspended in a wind tunnel and the force measured for various levels of wind velocity.

- Revisit Example 6 from your Module 4 notes. Consider the well-insulated, rigid tank having a volume of 10 [ft']. Previously, it contained saturated water vapor at 212°F at state 1. The water was rapidly stirred until the pressure was 20 [lbfin'). In class we showed that the temperature at state 2 was 445°F and the work done during this process was -31.3 (Btu]. Now, if insulation were removed from the tank, and the water is cooled at constant volume from T2 = 445°F to T3= 300°F without stirring the water, determine: a) The pressure at the state 3 in [Ibfin*), and b) The heat transfer during the process in [Btu).arrow_forwardEngr 215 Matlab Fahrenheit to Celsius using multiple statements Given a Fahrenheit value temperatureFahrenheit, write a statement that assigns temperatureCelsius with the equivalent Celsius value.
