A closed system consisting of 2 lb of a gas undergoes a process during which the relation between pressure and volume is pVn = c

onstant. The process begins with p1 = 15 lbf/in.2, ν1 = 1.25 ft3/lb and ends with p2 = 60 lbf/in.2, ν2 = 0.5 ft3/lb. Determine (a) the volume, in ft3, occupied by the gas at states 1 and 2 and (b) the value of n.

Answer:

V1=<u>2.5ft3</u>

<u>V2=1ft3</u>

n=1.51

Explanation:

PART A:

the volume of each state is obtained by multiplying the mass by the specific volume in each state

V=volume

v=especific volume

m=mass

V=mv

state 1

V1=m.v1

V1=2lb*1.25ft3/lb=<u>2.5ft3</u>

state 2

V2=m.v2

V2=2lb*0.5ft3/lb=  <u> 1ft3</u>

PART B:

since the PV ^ n is constant we can equal the equations of state 1 and state 2

P1V1^n=P2V2^n

P1/P2=(V2/V1)^n

ln(P1/P2)=n . ln (V2/V1)

n=ln(P1/P2)/ ln (V2/V1)

n=ln(15/60)/ ln (1/2.5)

n=1.51

An escalator is 17.4 m long. If a person stands on the escalator, it takes 47.6 s to ride from the bottom to the top. If a perso
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

19.1 secs

Explanation:

The first step is to calculate the velocity

= 17.4/47.6

= 0.37 m/s

Therefore the time taken for the person to reach the top can be calculated as follows

= 17.4/(0.37+0.541)

= 17.4 / 0.911

= 19.1 secs

Hence the time taken is 19.1 secs
