Textbook Question
Chapter 12.2, Problem 12.76P
A particle of mass m is projected from point A with an initial velocity v0 perpendicular to line OA and moves under a central force F along a semicircular path of diameter OA. Observing that r = r0 cos θ and using Eq. (12.25), show that the speed of the particle is v = v0/cos2 θ.

Q2: (15 Marks)
A water-LiBr vapor absorption system incorporates a heat exchanger as shown in
the figure. The temperatures of the evaporator, the absorber, the condenser, and the
generator are 10°C, 25°C, 40°C, and 100°C respectively. The strong liquid leaving
the pump is heated to 50°C in the heat exchanger. The refrigerant flow rate through
the condenser is 0.12 kg/s. Calculate (i) the heat rejected in the absorber, and (ii) the
COP of the cycle.
