The definition of the terms are given below:

Explanation:

Conduction

Conduction causes the heat to transfer from an object to another by the direct contact between them.

Motion

The action of moving of any object or substance is called motion.

Distance

The measurement of, how far two objects are located.

Temperature

It is the degree of hotness and coldness of body.

Absolute Zero

It is the lowest temperature possible where the particles have no motion. Absolute Zero is considered as 0 kelvin.

Speed

Rate of change of distance is called speed. It determines at what rate the object is changing its position.

A piston–cylinder device contains a mixture of 0.5 kg of H2 and 1.2 kg of N2 at 100 kPa and 300 K. Heat is now transferred to th

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

(a) The heat transferred is 2552.64 kJ

(b) The entropy change of the mixture is 1066.0279 J/K

Explanation:

Here we have

Molar mass of H₂ = 2.01588 g/mol

Molar mass of N₂ = 28.0134 g/mol

Number of moles of H₂ = 500/2.01588 = 248 moles

Number of moles of N₂ = 1200/28.0134 = 42.8 moles

P·V = n·R·T

V₁ = n·R·T/P = 290.8×8.3145×300/100000 = 7.25 m³

Since the volume is doubled then

V₂ = 2 × 7.25 = 14.51 m³

At constant pressure, the temperature is doubled, therefore

T₂ = 600 K

If we assume constant specific heat at the average temperature, we have

Heat supplied = m₁×cp₁×dT₁ + m₂×cp₂×dT₂

cp₁ = Specific heat of hydrogen at constant pressure = 14.50 kJ/(kg K

cp₂ = Specific heat of nitrogen at constant pressure = 1.049 kJ/(kg K

Heat supplied = 0.5×14.50×300 K+ 1.2×1.049×300 = 2552.64 kJ

b) $\Delta S = - R(n_A \times lnx_A + n_B \times ln x_B)$

Where:

$x_A$ and $x_B$ are the mole fractions of Hydrogen and nitrogen respectively.

Therefore, $x_A$ = 248 /(248 + 42.8) = 0.83

$x_B$ = 42.8/(248 + 42.8) = 0.1472

∴ $\Delta S = - 8.3145(248 \times ln0.83 + 42.8 \times ln 0.1472)$ = 1066.0279 J/K

Air at a pressure of 6000 N/m^2 and a temperature of 300C flows with a velocity of 10 m/sec over a flat plate of length 0.5 m. E

White raven [17]

Answer:

$Q=hA(T_{w}-T_{inf})=16.97*0.5(27-300)=-2316.4J$

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the expression for the temperature film

$T_{f}=\frac{T_{\inf}+T_{w}}{2}=\frac{300+27}{2}=163.5$

Then, we have to compute the Reynolds number

$Re=\frac{uL}{v}=\frac{10\frac{m}{s}*0.5m}{16.96*10^{-6}\rfac{m^{2}}{s}}=2.94*10^{5}$

Re<5*10^{5}, hence, this case if about a laminar flow.

Then, we compute the Nusselt number

$Nu_{x}=0.332(Re)^{\frac{1}{2}}(Pr)^{\frac{1}{3}}=0.332(2.94*10^{5})^{\frac{1}{2}}(0.699)^{\frac{1}{3}}=159.77$

but we also now that

$Nu_{x}=\frac{h_{x}L}{k}\\h_{x}=\frac{Nu_{x}k}{L}=\frac{159.77*26.56*10^{-3}}{0.5}=8.48\\$

but the average heat transfer coefficient is h=2hx

h=2(8.48)=16.97W/m^{2}K

Finally we have that the heat transfer is

$Q=hA(T_{w}-T_{inf})=16.97*0.5(27-300)=-2316.4J$

In this solution we took values for water properties of

v=16.96*10^{-6}m^{2}s

Pr=0.699

k=26.56*10^{-3}W/mK

A=1*0.5m^{2}

I hope this is useful for you

A vacuum gage connected to a tank reads 30 kPa at a location where the barometric reading is 755 mmHg. Determine the absolute pr

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Absolute pressure=70.72 KPa

Explanation:

Given that Vacuum gauge pressure= 30 KPa

Barometer reading =755 mm Hg

We know that barometer always reads atmospheric pressure at given situation.So atmospheric pressure is equal to 755 mm Hg.

We know that P= ρ g h

Density of $Hg=13600 \frac{kg}{m^3}$

So P=13600 x 9.81 x 0.755

P=100.72 KPa

We know that

Absolute pressure=atmospheric pressure + gauge pressure

But here given that 30 KPa is a Vacuum pressure ,so we will take it as negative.

Absolute pressure=atmospheric pressure + gauge pressure

Absolute pressure=100.72 - 30 KPa

Absolute pressure=70.72 KPa
