A solid disc with radius a is connected to a spring at a point $$d$$ above the center of the disc. The other end of the spring is fixed to the vertical wall. The disc is free to roll without slipping on the ground. The mass of the disc is $$M$$ and the spring constant is $$K$$. The polar moment of inertia for the disc about its centre is $$J = {{M{a^2}} \over 2}$$ GATE ME 2016 Set 1 Theory of Machines - Vibrations Question 16 English

In a steam power plant operating on an ideal Rankine cycle, super-heated steam enters the turbine at $$3$$ $$MPa$$ and $${350^ \circ }C.$$ The condenser pressure is $$75$$ $$kPa.$$ Thermal efficiency of the cycle is ___________ percent.

Given data:

For saturated liquid, at $$P=75$$ $$kPa,$$
$$\eqalign{ & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{h_f} = 384.39\,\,kJ/kg, \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{v_f} = 0.001037\,\,{m^3}/kg, \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{s_f} = 1.213\,\,kJ/kg K \cr} $$

At $$75$$ $$kPa,$$ $${h_{fg}} = 2278.6\,\,kJ/kg,$$
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{s_{fg}} = 6.2434\,\,kJ/kg$$-$$K$$

At $$P=3$$ $$MPa$$ and
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,T = {350^ \circ }C\,\,\,$$ (Superheated steam),
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,h = 3115.3\,\,kJ/kg,$$
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,s = 6.7428\,\,kJ/kg$$-$$K$$
