Chapter 15.7, Problem 15.220P
A flight simulator is used to train pilots on how to recognize spatial disorientation. It has four degrees of freedom and can rotate around a planetary axis, as well as in yaw, pitch, and roll. The pilot is seated so that her head B is located at r = (2 ft) i + (1 ft) j with respect to the center of the cab A. Knowing that the cab is rotating about the planetary axis with a constant angular velocity of 20 rpm counterclockwise as seen from above, and pitches with a constant angular velocity of +3k rad/s, determine (a) the velocity of the pilot’s head, (b) the angular acceleration of the cab, (c) the acceleration of the pilot’s head.

Consider 0.65 kg of N2 at 300 K, 1 bar contained in a rigid tank connected by a valve to another rigid tank holding 0.3 kg of CO2 at 300 K, 1 bar. The valve is opened and gases are allowed to mix, achieving an equilibrium state at 290 K. Determine: (a) the volume of each tank, in m³. (b) the final pressure, in bar. (c) the magnitude of the heat transfer to or from the gases during the process, in kJ. (d) the entropy change of each gas and of the overall system, in kJ/K.
