Question
For each of the following situations:
a. Choose an initial and final state (states A and B) that will be appropriate (interesting) for
analysis.
b. If there is not already a physical diagram of the situation and there should be one for proper
analysis, include one.
c. Construct a system schema of the situation. Do not forget to include the system boundary for
the system specified by the problem. Choose your system wisely.
d. Construct an energy bar chart and system flow diagram (LOL plots) for each problem.
e. You are allowed to add other energy storage modes. You do not have to use the energy
storage modes that are printed in each LOL plot.
f. Find the unknown value.
