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

Is the COP of a heat pump always larger than 1?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes it is true that COP of heat pump always greater than 1.But the COP of refrigeration can be greater or less than 1.

We know that

COP of heat pump=  1 + COP of refrigeration

It is clear that COP can not be negative .So from the above expression we can say that COP of heat pump is always greater than one.

The human eye, as well as the light-sensitive chemicals on color photographic film, respond differently to light sources with di
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

a) at T = 5800 k  

  band emission = 0.2261

at T = 2900 k

  band emission = 0.0442

b) daylight (d) = 0.50 μm

    Incandescent ( i ) =  1 μm

Explanation:

To Calculate the band emission fractions we will apply the Wien's displacement Law

The ban emission fraction in spectral range λ1 to λ2 at a blackbody temperature T can be expressed as

F ( λ1 - λ2, T ) = F( 0 ----> λ2,T) - F( 0 ----> λ1,T )

<em>Values are gotten from the table named: blackbody radiati</em>on functions

<u>a) Calculate the band emission fractions for the visible region</u>

at T = 5800 k  

  band emission = 0.2261

at T = 2900 k

  band emission = 0.0442

attached below is a detailed solution to the problem

<u>b)calculate wavelength corresponding to the maximum spectral intensity</u>

For daylight ( d ) = 2898 μm *k / 5800 k  = 0.50 μm

For Incandescent ( i ) = 2898 μm *k / 2900 k = 1 μm

Any change in the system from one equilibrium state to another is called: A) Path B) Process C) Cycle D) None of the above
dexar [7]

Answer:

B) Process

Explanation:

In thermodynamics a process is a passage of a thermodynamic system from an initial to a final state of thermodynamic equilibrium.

A thermodynamic process path is the series of states through which a system passes from an initial to a final state.

Cycle is a process in which initial and final state are identical.
