Answer:
C. 85%
Explanation:
A cylinder fitted with a piston exists in a high-pressure chamber (3 atm) with an initial volume of 1 L. If a sufficient quantity of a hydrocarbon material is combusted inside the cylinder to produce 1 kJ of energy, and if the volume of the chamber then increases to 1.5 L, what percent of the fuel's energy was lost to friction and heat?
A. 15%
B. 30%
C. 85%
D. 100%
work done by the system will be
W=PdV
p=pressure
dV=change in volume
3tam will be changed to N/m^2
3*1.01*10^5
W=3.03*10^5*(1.5-1)
convert 0.5L to m^3
5*10^-4
W=3.03*10^5*5*10^-4
W=152J
therefore
to find the percentage used
152/1000*100
15%
100%-15%
85% uf the fuel's energy was lost to friction and heat
Some people just know it. Do you have a question?
Answer:
m = 56.5 kg
Explanation:
Since the addition of mass on one piston caused a change in pressure head at the other. Diameter of the piston calculated is used as 0.46 m
Δm*g / Area = p * g * Δh ..... Eq1
Answer:
See the explanation below.
Explanation:
The units of work are consistent since if we work in the international system of measures we have the following dimensional quantities for velocity, distance and time.
s = displacement [m]
v and u = velocity [m/s]
t = time [s]
Now using these units in the given equation.
So the expression is good, and dimensional has consistency.
