A crank is being turned clockwise at 120 rev/min. The handle is 10 cm from the axle of the crank

An observer some distance away sees the crank edge-on so he only perceives the vertical motion of the crank and not the horizontal motion. What equation describes the motion of the handle seen by the observer if at t=0 the crank is at y = 0 and moving in the negative y direction?
A)

y = (10 cm)cos((12.6 rad/s)t +3?/2 )
B)

y = (10 cm)cos((12.6 rad/s + ?)t)
C)

y = (10 cm)cos((12.6 rad/s)t - ?/2 )
D)

y = (10 cm)cos((12.6 rad/s)t)
E)

y = (10 cm)cos((12.6 rad/s)t + ?/2 )

In a chiller unit, ammonia is to be condensed at a saturation temperature of 50ºC by passing the ammonia vapor over vertical plates 100 cm high by 150 cm wide and at a surface temperature of 20ºC. Estimate the average convective heat transfer coefficient and the amount of ammonia condensing from one plate surface. Use a value of 1052.8 kJ/kg for hnfg for ammonia.
