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

Answer: Hi!

A neuron is a basic working unit of the brain. Neurons are special cells designed to transfer information to other nerve, muscle, or gland cells. They are pretty cool - looking too! (A slightly irregular circular shape with branches reaching out from all sides.) A neuron is a nerve cell. Nerve cells are the way of communication in the nervous system.

Hope this helps!

Is cold fusion science or pseudoscience
kondor19780726 [428]

The experiments that claimed to demonstrate cold fusion were found
to have been faulty by others who reviewed them.  Also, nobody else
was able to reproduce the finding in other laboratories.  In the world
of Science, this pretty much says that the initial claims were unfounded.

What is dark energy? How is dark energy related to the theory of the multiverse?
olga55 [171]

Answer:

In the 1980s, astronomers turned to multiverse theory to explain the “luckily small” amount of dark energy in our universe. According to cosmologist's theories, this small amount of dark energy appeared to enable our universe to host life, while most universes in the multiverse couldn't.
