An insulated, vertical piston-cylinder device initially contains 10kg of water, 6kg of which is in the vapor phase. The mass of

the piston is such that it maintains a constant pressure of 200kPa inside the cylinder. Now steam at .5MPa and 350C is allowed to enter the cylinder from a supply line until all the liquid in the cylinder has vaporized. Determine
(a) the final temperature in the cylinder and
(b) the mass of the steam that has entered.

Answer:

a)120C

b)29kg

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this exercise follow the steps below

1. we will call 1 the initial state, 2 the steam that enters and 3 the final state

2. We find the quality of the initial state, dividing the mass of steam by the total mass.

q1=\frac{6kg}{10kg} =0.6

3 Find the internal energy in the three states using thermodynamic tables

note:Through laboratory tests, thermodynamic tables were developed, these allow to know all the thermodynamic properties of a substance (entropy, enthalpy, pressure, specific volume, internal energy etc ..)  

through prior knowledge of two other properties such as pressure and temperature.  

u1=IntEnergy(Water;x=0,6(quality);P=200kPa) =1719KJ/kg

u2=IntEnergy(Water;t=350;P=5000kPa) =2808KJ/kg

u3=IntEnergy(Water;x=1;P=200kPa) =2529KJ/kg

4. use the internal energy and pressure to find the temperature in state 3, using thermodynamic tables

T3=Temperature(Water;P=200kPa;u=u3=2529KJ/kg)=120C

5. Use the first law of thermodynamics in the system, it states that the initial energy in a system must be equal to the final

m1u1+m2u2=(m1+m2)u3

where

m1=inital mass=10kg

m2=the mass of the steam that has entered.

solve for m2

(m1)(u1-u3)=(m2)(u3)-(m2)(u2)

m2=m1\frac{u1-u3}{u3-u2} =10\frac{1719-2529}{2529-2808} =29kg

A hydrauliic jack is rated at 5000 pound capacity. The area of the large piston on the jack is 4.45 Square inches. Calculate the
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

1123.6 pounds/ square inch.

Explanation:

Fluid pressure is the ratio of force or weight applied by the fluid per unit area.

i.e Fluid pressure = \frac{weight}{area}

The maximum load of the jack is obtained at its maximum capacity = 5000 pounds

Area of the large piston on the jack = 4.45 square inches

Thus,

Fluid pressure = \frac{5000}{4.45}

                        = 1123.5955

Fluid pressure = 1123.6 pounds/ square inch

Thu, the fluid pressure in the jack at maximum load is 1123.6 pounds/ square inch.

Eight energy corporations made plans to increase their combined spending on efficiency programs to $50 million per year for the
tangare [24]

Answer:

F=531831381

Explanation:

There are two  ways of doing this question:

1) By Formula

2) By Using  Compound interest Table

By Formula:

F=A*\frac{(1+i)^{n}-1}{i}

Where:

F is future value

A is annual amount per year

i is interest rate

n is number of years

F=50 million*\frac{(1+0.08)^{8}-1}{0.08}

F=531831381

By Using  Compound interest Table:

F=A(F/A,i,n)

From Table F/A at i=8% and n=8 is 10.6366

F=50000000*(10.6366)

F=531830000≅531831381

The difference in two answers is due to decimal points if you take value from table to greater decimal points you will get the exact answer as by using formula.
