A 5 m3 tank containing 5kg of an unknown ideal gas at 500 kPa is connected through a valve to another tank containing 10 kg of t

he same gas at 200 kPa. The two tanks have thermal equilibrium with the ambient environment. After the valve has been opened, the tanks again reach thermal equilibrium with their ambient environment. What is the a) total volume, b) total mass, and c) pressure of the gas in the two tanks

Answer:

a) V_{T} = 9\,m^{2}, b) m_{T} = 15\,kg, c) P_{T} = 416.667\,kPa

Explanation:

a) The equation of state for ideal gas is:

P \cdot V = \frac{m}{M}\cdot R_{u}\cdot T

Given the existence of an isothermal process, the following relation is derived:

\frac{P_{1}\cdot V_{1}}{m_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}\cdot V_{2}}{m_{2}}

The volume of the other tank is:

V_{2} = \left(\frac{m_{2}}{m_{1}} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}}\right)\cdot V_{1}

V_{2} = \left(\frac{10\,kg}{5\,kg} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{200\,kPa}{500\,kPa}\right)\cdot (5\,m^{3})

V_{2} = 4\,m^{3}

The total volume is:

V_{T} = V_{1} + V_{2}

V_{T} = 5\,m^{3} + 4\,m^{3}

V_{T} = 9\,m^{2}

b) The total mass is:

m_{T} = m_{1} + m_{2}

m_{T} = 5\,kg + 10\,kg

m_{T} = 15\,kg

c) The pressure of the gas in the two tanks is:

P_{2} = \left(\frac{m_{2}}{m_{1}} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}}\right)\cdot P_{1}

P_{T} = \left(\frac{15\,kg}{5\,kg}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{5\,m^{2}}{9\,m^{2}} \right)\cdot (500\,kPa)

P_{T} = 416.667\,kPa

Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities are capable of modest accelerations. The magni
Mkey [24]
During the first phase of acceleration we have:
v o = 4 m/s;  t = 8 s; v = 13 m/s, a = ?
v = v o + a * t
13 m/s = 4 m / s + a * 8 s
a * 8 s = 9 m/s
a = 9 m/s : 8 s
a = 1.125 m/s²
The final speed:
v = ?;  v o = 13 m/s; a = 1.125 m/s² ;  t = 16 s
v = v o + a * t
v = 13 m/s + 1.125 m/s² * 16 s
v = 13 m/s + 18 m/s = 31 m/s

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

i. 0.34

ii. 0.4

iii. 1700 w/m²

iv. 2211.36 w/m²

Explanation:

Given that

Irradiation of the plate, G = 2500 w/m²

Reflected rays, p = 500 w/m²

Emissive power, E = 1200 w/m²

An athlete in a gym applies a constant force of 50 N to the pedals of a bicycle to keep the rotation rate of the wheel at 10 rev
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Force applied to pedal F = 50N

Angular velocity ω = 10rev/s

We know that, 1rev = 2πrad

Then, ω = 10rev/s = 10×2π rad/s

ω = 20π rad/s

Length of pedal r = 30cm = 0.3m

Power?

Power is given as

P = τ×ω

We need to find the torque τ

τ = r × F

Since r is perpendicular to F

Then, τ = 0.3 × 50

τ = 15 Nm

Then,

P = τ×ω

P = 15 × 20π

P = 942.48 Watts

power delivered to the bicycle by the athlete is 942.48 W
