Answer: d. exosphere

The exosphere is the outermost layer of the atmosphere of earth. It is present above the thermosphere which is lying above the earth. From this layer, the atoms and molecules escape out, which maintains an environment for the movement of satellites and space shuttles.

Air contained in a rigid, insulated tank fitted with a paddle wheel, initially at 300 K, 2 bar, and a volume of 3 m3, is stirred

madam [21]

Answer:

a)P₂ =4 bar

b)W= - 1482.48 KJ

It means that work done on the system.

c)S₂ - S₁ = 3.42 KJ/K

Explanation:

Given that

T₁ = 300 K ,V₁ = 3 m³ ,P₁=2 bar

T₂ = 600 K ,V₂=V₁ 3 m³

Given that tank is rigid and insulated.It means that volume of the gas will remain constant.

Lets take the final pressure = P₂

For ideal gas P V = m R T

$\dfrac{P_2}{P_1}=\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}$

$P_2=\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}\times P_1$

$P_2=\dfrac{600}{300}\times 2$

P₂ =4 bar

Internal energy

ΔU = m Cv ΔT

Cv=0.71 KJ/kg.k for air

$m=\dfrac{PV}{RT}$

$m=\dfrac{200\times 3}{0.287\times 300}\ kg$

m= 6.96 kg

ΔU= 6.96 x 0.71 x (600 - 300)

ΔU=1482.48 KJ

From first law

Q= ΔU + W

Q= 0 Insulated

W = - ΔU

W= - 1482.48 KJ

It means that work done on the system.

Change in the entropy

$S_2-S_1=mC_v\ \ln\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}$

$S_2-S_1=6.96\times 0.71\ \ln\dfrac{600}{300}$

S₂ - S₁ = 3.42 KJ/K

Why does water feel cool when it evaporates

Illusion [34]

First, it makes your skin feel cooler when it's wet. And when it evaporates it removes some heat. But sweat will only evaporate in an environment where there isn't muchwater in the air. In a place with high humidity, there're already lots of water molecules in the air.

In a certain chemical process, a lab technician supplies 292 J of heat to a system. At the same time, 68.0 J of work are done on

vekshin1

Answer:

The increase in the internal energy of the system is 360 Joules.

Explanation:

Given that,

Heat supplied to a system, Q = 292 J

Work done on the system by its surroundings, W = 68 J

We need to find the increase in the internal energy of the system. It can be given by first law of thermodynamics. It is given by :

$dE=dQ+dW\\\\dE=292\ J+68\ J\\\\dE=360\ J$

So, the increase in the internal energy of the system is 360 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
