1.State the basic difference between the general method of slices and the bishop method of slices. b.)State the basic difference between the bishop and fellenius method of slices

2.A Heat pump designer claim to have an air-source heat pump whose coefficient of preformance is 2.8 when heating a building whose interior temperature is 80 F and when the atmospheric air surrounding the building is at 10 F. is thsi claim valid ?

3.Consider a Carnot heat-engine cycle executed in a steady-flow system using steam as the working fluid. The cycle has a thermal efficiency of 35%, and steam changes from saturated vapor at 300 C during the heat addition process. If the mass flow rate of the steam is 2kg/s, determine the net power (kw) output of this engine.
