What does density have to do with our layers?

Air is compressed from an inlet condition of 100 kPa, 300 K to an exit pressure of 1000 kPa by an internally reversible compress

Answer:

(a) $W_{isoentropic}=8.125\frac{kJ}{mol}$

(b) $W_{polytropic}=7.579\frac{kJ}{mol}$

(c) $W_{isothermal}=5.743\frac{kJ}{mol}$

Explanation:

Hello,

(a) In this case, since entropy remains unchanged, the constant $k$ should be computed for air as an ideal gas by:

$\frac{R}{Cp_{air}}=1-\frac{1}{k} \\\\\frac{8.314}{29.11} =1-\frac{1}{k}\\$

$0.2856=1-\frac{1}{k}\\\\k=1.4$

Next, we compute the final temperature:

$T_2=T_1(\frac{p_2}{p_1} )^{1-1/k}=300K(\frac{1000kPa}{100kPa} )^{1-1/1.4}=579.21K$

Thus, the work is computed by:

$W_{isoentropic}=\frac{kR(T_2-T_1)}{k-1} =\frac{1.4*8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}(579.21K-300K)}{1.4-1}\\\\W_{isoentropic}=8.125\frac{kJ}{mol}$

(b) In this case, since $n$ is given, we compute the final temperature as well:

$T_2=T_1(\frac{p_2}{p_1} )^{1-1/n}=300K(\frac{1000kPa}{100kPa} )^{1-1/1.3}=510.38K$

And the isentropic work:

$W_{polytropic}=\frac{nR(T_2-T_1)}{n-1} =\frac{1.3*8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}(510.38-300K)}{1.3-1}\\\\W_{polytropic}=7.579\frac{kJ}{mol}$

(c) Finally, for isothermal, final temperature is not required as it could be computed as:

$W_{isothermal}=RTln(\frac{p_2}{p_1} )=8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}*300K*ln(\frac{1000kPa}{100kPa} ) \\\\W_{isothermal}=5.743\frac{kJ}{mol}$

Regards.

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Here is an example: Hubble Space Telescope's launch in 1990 sped humanity to one of its greatest advances in that journey. Hubble is a telescope that orbits Earth. Its position above the atmosphere, which distorts and blocks the light that reaches our planet, gives it a view of the universe that typically far surpasses that of ground-based telescopes.

Hubble is one of NASA's most successful and long-lasting science missions. It has beamed hundreds of thousands of images back to Earth, shedding light on many of the great mysteries of astronomy. Its gaze has helped determine the age of the universe, the identity of quasars, and the existence of dark energy.
