Air contained in a rigid, insulated tank fitted with a paddle wheel, initially at 300 K, 2 bar, and a volume of 3 m3, is stirred
madam [21]

Answer:

a)P₂ =4 bar

b)W= - 1482.48 KJ

It means that work done on the system.

c)S₂ - S₁ = 3.42 KJ/K

Explanation:

Given that

T₁ = 300 K   ,V₁ = 3 m³  ,P₁=2 bar

T₂ = 600 K ,V₂=V₁ 3 m³

Given that tank is rigid and insulated.It means that volume of the gas will remain constant.

Lets take the final pressure = P₂

For ideal gas  P V = m R T

\dfrac{P_2}{P_1}=\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}

P_2=\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}\times P_1

P_2=\dfrac{600}{300}\times 2

P₂ =4 bar

Internal energy

ΔU = m Cv ΔT

Cv=0.71 KJ/kg.k for air

m=\dfrac{PV}{RT}

m=\dfrac{200\times 3}{0.287\times 300}\ kg

m= 6.96 kg

ΔU= 6.96 x 0.71 x (600 - 300)

ΔU=1482.48 KJ

From first law

Q= ΔU + W

Q= 0  Insulated

W = - ΔU

W= - 1482.48 KJ

It means that work done on the system.

Change in the entropy

S_2-S_1=mC_v\ \ln\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}

S_2-S_1=6.96\times 0.71\ \ln\dfrac{600}{300}

S₂ - S₁ = 3.42 KJ/K

A 1150 kg pile driver is used to drive a steel I-beam into the ground. The pile driver falls 7.69 m before contacting the beam,
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

the average force 11226 N  

Explanation:

Let's analyze the problem we are asked for the average force, during the crash, we can find this from the impulse-momentum equation, but this equation needs the speeds and times of the crash that we could look for by kinematics.

Let's start looking for the stack speeds, it has a free fall, from rest  (Vo=0)

             

           Vf² = Vo² - 2gY

            Vf² = 0 - 2 9.8 7.69 = 150.7

            Vf = 12.3 m / s

This is the speed that the battery likes when it touches the beam.  They also give us the distance it travels before stopping, let's calculate the time

         

            Vf = Vo - g t

             0 = Vo - g t

             t = Vo / g

             t = 12.3 / 9.8

             t = 1.26 s

This is the time to stop

Now let's use the equation that relates the impulse to the amount of movement

                 I = Δp

                F t = pf-po

The amount of final movement is zero because the system stops

                F = - po / t

                F = - mv / t

                F = - 1150 12.3 / 1.26

                F = -11226 N

This is the average force exerted by the stack on the vean

Write a brief essay describing how Newton’s Laws explain how a rocket in space can move objects
statuscvo [17]
The First Law describes how an object acts when no force is acting upon it. So, rockets stay still until a force is applied to move them. Likewise, once they're in motion, they won't stop until a force is applied. Newton's Second Law tells us that the more mass an object has, the more force is needed to move it. A larger rocket will need stronger forces (eg. more fuel) to make it accelerate. The space shuttles required seven pounds of fuel for every pound of payload they carry. Newton's Third Law states that "every action has an equal and opposite reaction". In a rocket, burning fuel creates a push on the front of the rocket pushing it forward.
