0 kJ/kg of heat is transferred to air dur- ing the constant-volume heat-addition process. Taking into account the variation of specific heats with temperature, determine (a) the pressure and temperature at the end of the heat- addition process, (b) the net work output, (c) the thermal efficiency, and (d) the mean effective pressure for the cycle.

Answer:

a) T_3 = 1539 K , P_3 = 3898 KPa

b) w_net,out = 392.4 KJ/kg

c) n_th = 0.523 - 52.3 %

d) mep = 495 KPa

Explanation:

Given:

- Sate 1: P_1 = 95 KPa, T_1 = 27 C

- q_in = 750 KJ/kg  (constant volume process)

- R_air = 0.287 KJ/kgK

- r = 8  (compression ratio)

Find:

a) Pressure and Temperature (P_3 & T_3) at the end of Heat addition process.

Analysis:

Path 1 to 2 (isentropic compression):

T_1 = 300 K   ----------> u_1 = 214.07 KJ/kg  , v_r1 = 621.2

v_r2 = v_r1 * (V_2 / V_1) = 621.2 *(1 / 8) = 77.65

v_r2 = 77.65 -----------> u_2 = 491.2 KJ/kg , T_2 = 673.1 K

Use Ideal Gas Law for states 1 and 2:

P_2 * v_2 / T_2 = P_1 * v_1 / T_1

P_2 = P_1 * (v_1 /v_2) * ( T_2 / T_1 )

P_2 =  95 KPa * (8)*(673.1/300) = 1705 KPa

Path 2 to 3 (constant volume Heat - Addition):

q_in = (u_3 - u_2 )

u_3 = q_in + u_2

u_3 = 750 +491.2 = 1241.2 KJ/kg

u_3 = 1241.2 KJ/kg  ----------> T_3 = 1539 K , v_r3 = 6.588

Use Ideal Gas Law for states 2 and 3:

P_3 * v_3 / T_3 = P_2 * v_2 / T_2

P_3 = P_2 * ( T_3 / T_2 )

P_3 =  1705 KPa*(1539/673.1) = 3898 KPa

Answer: T_3 = 1539 K and P_3 = 3898 KPa

Path 3 to 4 (isentropic expansion):

v_r4 = v_r3 * (V_1 / V_2) = 6.588 *(8) = 52.7

v_r4 = 52.70 -----------> u_4 = 571.69 KJ/kg , T_4 = 774.5 K

Path 4 to 1 (constant volume Heat - Rejection):

q_out = (u_4 - u_1 )

q_out = 571.69 - 214.07

q_out = 357.62 KJ/kg

b) The net work output w_net,out

Analysis:

w_net, out = q_in - q_out

w_net, out = 750 - 357.62

w_net, out = 392.4 KJ/kg

Answer: The net work output w_net,out = 392.4KJ/kg

c) Thermal Efficiency n_th

Analysis:

n_th = w_net, out / q_in

n_th = 392.4 / 750

n_th = 0.523 ~ 52.3%

Answer: = Thermal Efficiency n_th = 52.3%

d) mean effective pressure for the cycle.

Use ideal gas Law at state 1:

v_1 = R*T_1 / P_1 = 0.287 * 300 / 95

v_1 = v_max= 0.906 m^3 /kg

v_min = v_max / r

mep = w_net,out / (v_1-v_2) = w_net,out / v_1*(1 - 1 / r)

mep = 392.4 / 0.906 * (1 - 1/8)

mep = 495.0 KPa

Answer: mean effective pressure for the cycle mep = 495.0 KPa

As a rock sinks deeper and deeper into water of constant density, what happens to the buoyant force on it? As a rock sinks deepe
Sidana [21]

Answer:

It remains constant

Explanation:

As we know that buoyant force on an object given as

Fb = ρ Vd g

ρ= Density of fluid

Vd=Volume displace by body

g=10 m/s²

Fb =buoyant force

So from above we can say that buoyant force does not depends on the depth. It only depends on the fluid density and volume displace by body.

So when rock gets deeper and deeper the buoyant force will remain constant.

It remains constant

You and your friend throw balloons filled with water from the roof of a several story apartment house. You simply drop a balloon
Aleks [24]

Answer:

Height = 53.361 m

Explanation:

There are two balloons being thrown down, one with initial speed (u1) = 0 and the other with initial speed (u2) = 43.12

From the given information we make the following summary

u_{1} = 0m/s

t_{1} = t

u_{2} = 43.12m/s

t_{2} = (t-2.2)s

The distance by the first balloon is

D = u_{1} t_{1}  + \frac{1}{2} at_{1}^2

where

a = 9.8m/s2

Inputting the values

D = (0)t + \frac{1}{2} (9.8)t^2\\ D = 4.9t^2

The distance traveled by the second balloon

D = u_{2} t_{2}  + \frac{1}{2} at_{2}^2

Inputting the values

D = (43.12)(t-2.2)  + \frac{1}{2} (9.8)(t-2.2)^2

simplifying

D = 4.9t^2 + 21.56t -71.148

Substituting D of the first balloon into the D of the second balloon and solving

4.9t^2 = 4.9t^2 + 21.56t -71.148 \\ 21.56t = 71.148\\ t = 3.3s

Now we know the value of t. We input this into the equation of the first balloon the to get height of the apartment

D = 4.9(3.3)^2\\ D = 53.361 m

An Ethernet cable is 4.00m long. The cable has a mass of 0.200kg . A transverse pulse is produced by plucking one end of the tau
Mashcka [7]

Based on the length of the Ethernet cable and the mass, the tension in the cable can be found to be 80 N.

<h3>How much tension is in the cable?</h3>

The tension in the cable can be found as:

= 4 x mass x length x frequency

Solving for the frequency is:

= 1 / (0.800 / 4)

= 1 / 0.20

= 5.0 Hz

The tension is therefore:

= 4 x 0.20 x 4.00 x 5

= 80N

A proton is released from rest at the origin in a uniform electric field in the positive x direction with magnitude 850 N/C. Wha
Gwar [14]

A proton is released from rest at the origin in a uniform electric field in the positive x direction with magnitude 850 N/C. The change in the electric potential energy of the proton-field system when the proton travels to x = 2.50m is -3.40 × 10⁻¹⁶ J (Option B)

<h3 /><h3>How is the change in electric potential energy of the proton-field system calculated?</h3>

  • Work done on the proton =Negative of the change in the electric potential energy of the proton field
  • In the given case, W = -qΔV
  • -W = qΔV
  • = qEcosθ
  • Therefore, work done on the proton = -e(8.50×10^2 N/C)(2.5m)(1)
  • = -3.40×10^-^1^6 J
  • Any change in the potential energy indicates the work done by the proton.
  • Therefore the positive sign shows that the potential energy increases when the proton does the work.
  • The negative sign shows that the potential energy decreases when the proton does the work.
