During an expansion process, the pressure of a gas changes from 15 to 140 psia according to the relation P = aV + b, where a = 5

psia/ft3 and b is a constant. If the initial volume of the gas is 7 ft3, calculate the work done during the process.

The work done during the process is 359 btu

<u></u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

P1 = 15psia

P2 = 140 psia

V1 = 7ft³

a = 5 psia/ft³

b = C

P = aV +b

Work done, W = ?

P1 = aV1 + b

15 = 5 (7) + b

b = -20 psia

P2 = aV2 + b

140 = 5 ( V2) - 20

V2 = 32 ft³

The work done by the process is the area under the curve which is trapezoidal.

Therefore,

Work done, W = area of trapezoid

= (P2 + P1 / 2) (V2 - V1)

= ( 140 + 15 / 2 ) ( 32 - 7)

= 1937.5 psia ft³

= 1937.5/ 5.4039 = 359 btu

Therefore, the work done during the process is 359 btu

Precast double-tee units are generally used as structural floors when:________.
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

<em>d. floor spans exceed that which is economical with site-cast or hollow-core slabs and exceed 60 feet.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

<em> Double tee slabs are prestressed concrete castings usually about 100 m to 150 m long</em>. <em>They are usually used in the construction industry in structures requiring a long floor span (or roof span) exceeding 60 feet in length, that is required to bear additional load (additional load carrying capability</em>). Double tee slabs are usually employed in construction because they shorten construction time. reduce congestion at the construction site, and also reduce construction cost.

<em>They are the required choice in construction when the cost of site casting or hollow-core slabs is no longer economical due to the length of the structure exceeding 60 feet.</em>

A controller on an electronic arcade game consists of a variable resistor connected across the plates of a 0.227 μF capacitor. T
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

R min = 28.173 ohm

R max = 1.55 × 10^{4}  ohm

Explanation:

given data

capacitor = 0.227 μF

charged to 5.03 V

potential difference across the plates =  0.833 V

handled effectively = 11.5 μs to 6.33 ms

solution

we know that resistance range of the resistor is express as

V(t) = V_o \times e^{t\RC}    ...........1

so R will be

R = \frac{t}{C\times ln(\frac{V_o}{V})}    ....................2

put here value

so for t min 11.5 μs

R = \frac{11.5}{0.227\times ln(\frac{5.03}{0.833})}

R min = 28.173 ohm

and

for t max 6.33 ms

R max = \frac{6.33}{11.5} \times 28.173  

R max = 1.55 × 10^{4}  ohm
