A piston-cylinder device contains 0.1 [kg] of air at a pressure of 100 [kPa] and a temperature of 400 [K] that undergoes an expa

nsion process. The volume of the piston-cylinder device expands from 1 [m3 ] to 3 [m3 ] at a constant pressure of 2,000 [kPa]. Then, as the piston-cylinder device expands from 3 [m3 ] to 5 [m3 ], the pressure linearly decreases from 2,000 to 1,000 [kPa].

Answer:

a) Q_in = 30 KJ

b)  W_net, out = 7,000 KJ

Explanation:

Given:

- mass of air m = 0.1 kg

State 1:                               State 2:                         State 3:

- P_1 = 2000 KPa             P_2 = 2000 KPa            P_3 = 1,000 KPa

- T_1 = 400 K                    V_2 =  3 m^3                  V_3 = 5 m^3

- V_1 = 1 m^3

Find:

(a) Determine the heat input.

(b) Determine the work for the overall process

Solution:

- Process 1: Constant pressure, Expansion Heat addition.

 Using Ideal Gas Law for Air.

                       P_1*V_1 / T_1 = P_2*V_2 / T_2

Where, P_1 = P_2,

                      V_1 / T_1 = V_2 / T_2

                      T_2 = (V_2 / V_1)*T_1

                      T_2 = (3 / 1 )*400 = 700 K

 The amount of Heat input Q_in:

                      Q_in = m*c_p*( T_2 - T_1)

                      Q_in = 0.1*1*( 700 - 400) = 30 KJ

The amount of work done by the system in the process:

                     W_out = P_1 * ( V_2 - V_1)

                     W_out = 2000 * ( 3 - 1) = 4,000 KJ

- Process 2: Linear Expansion.

                     W_out = Area under the P-V graph

                     W_out = Area of Trapezium

                     W_out = 0.5*(P_ 1 + P_2)*( V_3 - V_2)

                     W_out = 0.5*(3000)*(2)

                     W_out = 3,000 KJ

- The total work for overall process is:

                      W_net, out = 4,000 + 3,000 = 7,000 KJ

what are three things that we would need and unlimiated amount of for all of us to obtain everything that we want?
Elanso [62]
Unlimited wants is an economic term that refers to humans’ insatiable appetite for things. We never get enough because there is always something else that we need or want. The term ‘unlimited wants’ is the side of human nature that wants an infinite number of things. However, the resources we have available to get these wants are limited.

There are two halves of scarcity that have plagued us ever since we first set foot on this Earth:

Limited resources.
Unlimited wants.
The Economics of Seinfeld says the following regarding the term:

“Unlimited wants essentially mean that people never get enough, that there is always something else that they would like to have.”

“When combined with limited resources, unlimited wants result in the fundamental problem of scarcity.”

Unlimited wants – limited resources

What we want and need has no limit, i.e., it is infinite. However, what we can afford is finite, i.e., it has a limit. This is a basic condition of human existence.

We are never completely satisfied with everything we consume. We consume a variety of goods and services, but they are never enough.

In other words, there is always something else that I, you, or anybody else would want or need.

The term applies to all socioeconomic groups. Low-income groups have limited resources, and their wants always exceed those resources. However, the same happens with middle-income and upper-income groups. They never feel they have enough.

The reason is a very simple one. Every income group’s resources are finite. However, unlimited want is a feature of every human.

Put simply; our wants and needs are infinite, but our wealth is not.

The economic problem – unlimited wants

‘The economic problem‘ is a term that economists use. It states that the finite resources of an economy are not enough to satisfy all our wants and needs. We also call it ‘the central economic problem‘ or ‘the basic economic problem.’

The main question we ask when considering ‘the economic problem’ is: “How do we satisfy unlimited wants with limited resources?”

As we cannot produce everything, we have to prioritize. We must decide what to produce, how to produce it, and how much to produce. We must also determine for whom to produce.

Human wants are constant and infinite, but the resources to satisfy them are finite. The resources cannot exceed the amount of human and natural resources available.

We produce things that we know people want, as long as we have the resources to make them. How strong or weak demand is determines how much we charge for those things. It also determines how much we produce (supply).

In other words, markets fores, i.e., the forces of supply and demand, in a free market economy, determine prices.

Wants vs. needs

Needs are things without which we cannot survive. Wants are things we desire. However, we can survive without those wants.

Food, water, and housing, for example, are needs. Clothing is also a need. Without food or water, we would die. We would probably die too without housing. In cold countries, we would not survive without clothing.

A nice car, smartphone, and vacation by the beach are wants. If I don’t have a nice car, I will still live. If I don’t go to Cancun for my winter break, I won’t die. However, I want these things.

Fundamental needs are key in the function of the economy. Wants, however, are the driving forces that stimulate demand for things, i.e., demand for goods and services.

We can say either ‘unlimited wants’ or ‘unlimited wants and needs.’

The heavier an atomic nucleus gets, the less energy the star is able to extract from it through nuclear fusion. When it gets to
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Iron

Explanation:

Once a star starts fusing iron in its core it gives off very large amounts of energy. Also helium, hydrogen, carbon, oxygen, and silicon still exist in the star in different shells while fusin is taking place at different parts of the star. Right at the surface, hydrogen continues to fuse to helium, as e go further down helium is fusing to carbon and oxygen; right inside the core we have silicon that is fusing with iron. At this point, Iron being of stable atomic structure and quite heavier will no longer be fused into anything because of the quite large amounts of energy and force required to fuse iron atoms. The process comes to a standstill at this point.

Lerok [7]

Based on the information provided, the technician who is correct is: C. Both Technician A and Technician B.

<h3>What is an open circuit?</h3>

An open circuit can be defined as a type of electric circuit in which the continuity between the conducting wire (paths) has been broken or cut.

This ultimately implies that, an open circuit is designed and developed to prevent the flow of electric charges (electrons or currents) from one point in an electric circuit to another.

In Electrical engineering, a short usually causes an electric circuit protection device such as a fuse, circuit breaker, etc., to open when higher than normal current flows through the electrical circuit.
