An auxiliary power unit (APU) is a relatively small, self-contained generator used in aircraft to start the jet engines, usually with compressed air, and to provide electricity, hydraulic pressure, and air conditioning while the aircraft is on the ground. It is known that 1 out of 200 tests performed in APU results in a failure. What is the probability that the failure occurs at the 20th flight test?.

true or false pleassse faster Saturated steam’s enthalpy EQUATES the vapor enthalpy of steam at that given temperature or pressure. Steam is the BASIC source of energy in the food industry The average latent heat of water at any temperature is EQUAL to difference of the vapor and liquid enthalpies at that temperature Under the wet-steam region, isothermal and isobaric lines moves in the SAME direction Degree superheat is the temperature DIFFERENCE of the superheated steam temperature from saturated steam temperature Water CAN boil in a temperature below 100C LIQUID ENTHALPY also refers to the energy of liquid water The enthalpy of steam plotted in steam chart or tabulated in steam table is reckoned from ABSOLUTE ZERO Steam is STABLE even up to 2000K The SUM of moisture and quality under wet-steam region is equal to 1
Y7b please help me with the solution and answer thank you
true or false need before 7:45 pm pleaseeee neeed it 1.Mass component that do not vary as it passes though the system is helpful if its mass balance is included in assessing the system Adiabatic system is a real system Control volume is a region in space surrounded by a control surface through which the fluid flows. Steam is said to be superheated if its actual temperature is higher than its saturated temperature at constant pressure Generation or depletion terms are included in a component mass balance if the component undergoes chemical reaction. Mass balance may refer to total mass balance or component mass balance. The degree of freedom of a system is equal to the difference between the number of unknown variables and the number of independent equations In a component mass balance, the component generation term has the same sign as the output streams. For water, the density of its vapors, liquid, and solid are in increasing order
Which statement(s) is/are TRUE about compression-ignition (CI) engine? OThe maximum indicated mean effective pressure of a naturally aspirated compression-ignition engine is higher than the corresponding values for an equivalent spark-ignition engine. O Unlike spark-ignition engine, there is no knock limit in compression-ignition engine. The pumping loss in a compression-ignition engine is higher that that of an equivalent spark-ignition engine. Engine torque of compression-ignition engine is varied by varying the amount of the fuel injected.
