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

What financial arguments could you use to justify your proposed
Gnoma [55]

The recommendation to segregate FLTs and the workers are as follows:-1)Reputation of warehouse:- To be in the market the reputation of warehouse should be good,it can only happen when the worker of that warehouse is happy with the management looks after worker external and internal affairs. There should be two pathways one for vehicle and other for walking in which both can’t use vice versa.2)High Profitability:- When there is no incident or accident happens between the FLTs and the workers in the warehouse then off course the worker will be regular at work then there will be high profit .3)Insurance premium:- If there is zero accident happens in the ware house then there will no claim, the company will be in the profit..

Plssssssssssssss Alexi is writing a program which prompts users to enter their age. Which function should she use?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

int()

Explanation:

float() is using decimals, so that can't be it, like float(input( "how much does this cost?"))

print() is used to print something, not a user asking, like print("hello")

string() means like a whole, like string( I am good)

By elimination, int() is correct.

Hope this helps!
