A well-insulated, rigid tank has a volume of 1 m3and is initially evacuated. A valve is opened,and the surrounding air enters at

1 bar, 27 °C. Heat is transferredto the tank by an electric resister at a constant rate for 5 minutes. After heating, the tank pressure is 1 bar and the temperature is 477 °C. Air can be modeled as an ideal gas. Find the power input required, in kW

Answer:

0.5 kW

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

Volume of tank = 1 m³

Pressure of air entering tank = 1 bar

Temperature of air = 27°C = 300.15 K

Temperature after heating  = 477 °C = 750.15 K

V₂ = 1 m³

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

P₁ = P₂

V₁ = T₁×V₂/T₂ = 300.15 * 1 /750.15 = 0.4 m³

dQ = m \times c_p \times (T_2 -T_1)

For ideal gas, c_p = 5/2×R = 5/2*0.287 = 0.7175 kJ

PV = NKT

N = PV/(KT) = 100000×1/(750.15×1.38×10⁻²³)

N = 9.66×10²⁴

Number of moles of air = 9.66×10²⁴/(6.02×10²³) = 16.05 moles

The average mass of one mole of air = 28.8 g

Therefore, the total mass = 28.8*16.05 = 462.135 g = 0.46 kg

∴ dQ = 0.46*0.7175*(750.15 - 300.15) = 149.211 kJ

The power input required = The rate of heat transfer = 149.211/(60*5)

The power input required = 0.49737 kW ≈ 0.5 kW.

babymother [125]

Answer:

Tension in cable BE= 196.2 N

Reactions A and D both are  73.575 N

Explanation:

The free body diagram is as attached sketch. At equilibrium, sum of forces along y axis will be 0 hence

T_{BE}-W=0 hence

T_{BE}=W=20*9.81=196.2 N

Therefore, tension in the cable, T_{BE}=196.2 N

Taking moments about point A, with clockwise moments as positive while anticlockwise moments as negative then

196.2\times 0.125- 196.2\times 0.2+ D_x\times 0.2=0

24.525-39.24+0.2D_x=0

D_x=73.575 N

Similarly,

A_x-D_y=0

A_x=73.575 N

Therefore, both reactions at A and D are 73.575 N
