A gas mixture with a molar analysis of 40% CH4 (methane) and 60% air enters a control volume operating at steady state at location 1
with a mass flow rate of 5 kg/min, as shown in the figure below. Air enters as a separate stream at 2 and dilutes the mixture. A single
stream exits with a mole fraction of methane of 5%. Assume air has a molar analysis of 21% O2 and 79% N2.

A. Calculate the cutting time if the length of cut is 24 in., the feed rate is 0.030 ipr, and the cutting speed is 80 fpm. The allowance is 0.5 in and the diameter is 8 in.
B. Calculate the metal removal rate for machining at speed of 80 fpm, feed of 0.030 ipr, at a depth of 0.625 in. Use data from the previous problem.
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.
