Answer:

The expansion work is 71.24 kJ and heat transfer is -16.89 kJ

Explanation:

From ideal gas law,

Initial volume (V1) = nRT/P

n is the number of moles of air in the cylinder = mass/MW = 0.1/29 = 0.00345 kgmol

R is gas constant = 8314.34 J/kgmol.K

T is initial temperature = 1527 °C = 1527+273 = 1800 K

P is initial pressure = 4 MPa = 4×10^6 Pa

V1 = 0.00345×8314.34×1800/(4×10^6) = 0.013 m^3

V2 = 10×V1 = 10×0.013 = 0.13 m^3

The process is a polytropic expansion process

polytropic exponent (n) = 1.5

P2 = P1(V1/V2)^n = 4×10^6(0.013/0.13)^1.5 = 1.26×10^5 Pa

Expansion work = (P1V1 - P2V2) ÷ (n - 1) = (4×10^6 × 0.013 - 1.26×10^5 × 0.13) ÷ (1.5 - 1) = 35620 ÷ 0.5 = 71240 J = 71240/1000 = 71.24 kJ

Heat transfer = change in internal energy + expansion work

change in internal energy (∆U) = Cv(T2 - T1)

T2 = PV/nR = 1.26×10^5 × 0.13/0.00345×8314.34 = 571 K

Cv = 20.785 kJ/kgmol.K

∆U = 20.785(571 - 1800) = -25544.765 kJ/kgmol × 0.00345 kgmol = -88.13 kJ

Heat transfer = -88.13 + 71.24 = -16.89 kJ

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer: The total vehicle delay is

39sec/veh

Explanation: we shall define only the values that are important to this question, so that the solution will be very clear for your understanding.

Effective red time (r) = 25sec

Arrival rate (A) = 900veh/h = 0.25veh/sec

Departure rate (D) = 1800veh/h = 0.5veh/sec

STEP1: FIND THE TRAFFIC INTENSITY (p)

p = A ÷ D

p = 0.25 ÷ 0.5 = 0.5

STEP 2: FIND THE TOTAL VEHICLE DELAY AFTER ONE CYCLE

The total vehicle delay is how long it will take a vehicle to wait on the queue, before passing.

Dt = (A × r^2) ÷ 2(1 - p)

Dt = (0.25 × 25^2) ÷ 2(1 - 0.5)

Dt = 156.25 ÷ 4 = 39.0625

Therefore the total vehicle delay after one cycle is;

Dt = 39

In multi-grade oil what is W means?
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

winter viscosity grades

Explanation:

The “W”/winter viscosity grades describe the oil's viscosity under cold temperature engine starting conditions. There's a Low Temperature Cranking Viscosity which sets a viscosity requirement at various low temperatures to ensure that the oil isn't too thick so that the starter motor can't crank the engine over.
