Textbook Question
Chapter 3, Problem 7RP
The stress-strain diagram for polyethylene, which is used to sheath coaxial cables, is determined from testing a specimen that has a gage length of 10 in. If a load P on the specimen develops a strain of ε = 0.024 in./in., determine the approximate length of the specimen, measured between the gage points, when the load is removed. Assume the specimen recovers elastically.

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.
