3 / 10

A refrigeration unit cools water of mass 3 kg by 33 °C. Find the thermal energy removed from the water. The specific heat capacity of water is 4186 J/kg celsius. Give answer to three significant figures in kJ.

4 / 10

A lorry contains an engine with a power of 2.78 J/s. The lorry drives for 36 mins. Calculate the energy transferred in kJ rounded to three decimal places.

5 / 10

Calculate the force Fc working at point C. Give answer in kN rounded to one decimal place.

Forces at point A: Rax = 3kN, Ray = 9kN, Ma = 10kN/m

6 / 10

Calculate delta_h1 and delta_h2 in mm (integers), seprate the value with a comma, no space in between, delta_h1 is the first value (exp.: 126,4)

7 / 10

A metal piece heated to

θ_1,M=1000∘C

with a mass of

M_M=6.5 kg

was cooled in a completely heat-insulated iron container filled with water. The mass of the water in the container is

M_W=10 kg

and the mass of the container is

M_B=2 kg.

The initial temperatures of the water and the container were the same and amounted to

θ_1,W=10∘C

. After complete thermal equilibrium between the immersed metal piece, the water, and the container, a temperature of

was established.
What is the average specific heat capacity of the metal piece

c

in the temperature range between

and

Input the result in kJ/(kg*K), round to 3 decimal numbers sperated by a point (example: 0.136).

8 / 10

How high (in m) can a column of liquid be lifted by a reciprocating piston, neglecting leakage and losses, if the air pressure is 101300 Pa and the pressure p₁ approaches zero?

Example Input 14.3 (use a point, no unit)

9 / 10

Calculate the cornering speed during Skidpad (you can use the centerline radius in the rules) using following information:

μ_y = 1.4, m = 240 kg, c_L = 3.2, A = 1 m^2, ρ = 1.1 kg/m^3

It is assumed, that there is no weight transfer and all 4 tires are at the optimal grip level. Answer in m/s rounded to one decimal place.

10 / 10

The previous season you could recuperate only 25% of your initially stored energy, but this season a big improvement in your drivetrain allows you to recuperate 63% of the initially stored energy. Knowing that you had 9.6 kWh of energy in your accumulator during the last season, how much energy must your new accumulator have, if you assume, that it’s the same length and speed? Give answer in kWh to one decimal place.
