A piston-cylinder assembly contains air at a pressure of 30 lbf/in2 and a volume of 0.75 ft3. The air is heated at constant pres

sure until its volume is doubled. Assuming the ideal gas model, with constant specific heat ratio of k=1.4 for the air, determine the work and heat transfer, each in BTU.

Answer:

Work W=4.16 Btu

Heat transfer Q=14.56 Btu

Explanation:

To calculate the work W we will use the given pressure p=30 psia and volume V₁=0.75 ft³ V₂=2.V₁

W=p.(V_{2}-V_{1} )\\W=30psia.(1.5ft^{3}-0.175ft^{3} ).\frac{144in^{2} }{1ft^{2} } .\frac{1Btu}{778lbf.ft}\\ W=4.16Btu

Now for heat transfer

Q=W+m.(u_{2}-u_{1} )\\Q=W+\frac{m.R.(T_{2}- T_{1})}{k-1}\\

The last equation we will rewrite using ideal gas law to calculate heat transfer

Q=W+\frac{p(V_{2}-V_{1} )}{k-1}\\ As\\W=p(V_{2}-V_{1} )\\So\\Q=W+\frac{W}{k-1} \\Q=4.16Btu+\frac{4.16Btu}{1.4-1} \\Q=14.56Btu

a pool ball leaves a 0.60-meter high table with an initial high table with an initial horizontal velocity of 2.4m/s. what is the
inysia [295]

Answer:

0.84 m

Explanation:

Given in the y direction:

Δy = 0.60 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

0.60 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 0.35 s

Given in the x direction:

v₀ = 2.4 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 0.35 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (2.4 m/s) (0.35 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (0.35 s)²

Δx = 0.84 m
