The formula for finding potential energy is: f= m*g*h. where "m" is mass of the object in question. "g" is the gravitational acceleration."h" is height above the ground. So, if we put in the values:
20*10*8
1600 joules

A piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.08 m3 of nitrogen gas at 150 kPa and 200°C. The nitrogen is now expanded to a pres
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

V_2 = 0.125 m^3

Work done =  = 5 kJ

Explanation:

Given data:

volume of nitrogen v_1 = 0.08 m^3

P_1 = 150 kPa

T_1 = 200 degree celcius = 473 Kelvin

P_2 = 80 kPa

Polytropic exponent n = 1.4

\frac{T_2}{T_1} = [\frac{P_2}{P_1}]^{\frac{n-1}{n}

putting all value

\frac{T_2}{473} = [\frac{80}{150}]^{\frac{1.4-1}{1.4}

\frac{T_2} = 395.23 K = 122.08 DEGREE \ CELCIUS

polytropic process is given as

P_1 V_1^n = P_2 V_2^n

150\times 0.08^{1.4} = 80 \times V_2^{1.4}

V_2 = 0.125 m^3

work done = \frac{P_1 V_1 -P_2 V_2}{n-1}

= \frac{150 \times 0.8 - 80 \times 0.125}{1.4-1}

                  = 5 kJ

One end of a metal rod is in contact with a thermal reservoir at 745. K, and the other end is in contact with a thermal reservoi
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

a)S_1=-9.65}\ J/K

b)S_2=71.18\ J/K

c) 0 J/K

d)S= 61.53 J/K

Explanation:

Given that

T₁ = 745 K

T₂ = 101 K

Q= 7190 J

a)

The entropy change of reservoir 745 K

S_1=-\dfrac{7190}{745}\ J/K

Negative sign because heat is leaving.

S_1=-9.65}\ J/K

b)

The entropy change of reservoir 101 K

S_2=\dfrac{7190}{101}\ J/K

S_2=71.18\ J/K

c)

The entropy change of the rod will be zero.

d)

The entropy change of the system

S= S₁ + S₂

S = 71.18 - 9.65 J/K

S= 61.53 J/K
