Answer:
-6.326 KJ/K
Explanation:
A) the entropy change is defined as:

In an isobaric process heat (Q) is defined as:

Replacing in the equation for entropy
m is the mass and Cp is the specific heat of R134a. We can considerer these values as constants so the expression for entropy would be:
Solving the integral we get the expression to estimate the entropy change in the system

The mass is 5.25 Kg and Cp for R134a vapor can be consulted in tables, this value is 
We can get the temperature at the beginning knowing that is saturated vapor at 500 KPa. Consulting the thermodynamic tables, we get that temperature of saturation at this pressure is: 288.86 K
The temperature in the final state we can get it from the heat expression, since we know how much heat was lost in the process (-976.71 kJ). By convention when heat is released by the system a negative sign is used to express it.

With
clearing for T2 we get:

Now we can estimate the entropy change in the system

The entropy change in the system is negative because we are going from a state with a lot of disorder (high temperature) to one more organize (less temperature. This was done increasing the entropy of the surroundings.
b) see picture.
Given:
Temperature of water,
=
=273 +(-6) =267 K
Temperature surrounding refrigerator,
=
=273 + 21 =294 K
Specific heat given for water,
= 4.19 KJ/kg/K
Specific heat given for ice,
= 2.1 KJ/kg/K
Latent heat of fusion,
= 335KJ/kg
Solution:
Coefficient of Performance (COP) for refrigerator is given by:
Max
= 
=
= 9.89
Coefficient of Performance (COP) for heat pump is given by:
Max
= 
= 10.89
Answer and Explanation:
<u>The correct answer choice is Contacting Overhead Power Lines.</u>
This is because the powerlines are making contact (touching) his car, and the example isn't related to the other answer choices.

Given Information:
Initial temperature of aluminum block = 26.5°C
Heat flux = 4000 w/m²
Time = 2112 seconds
Time = 30 minutes = 30*60 = 1800 seconds
Required Information:
Rise in surface temperature = ?
Answer:
Rise in surface temperature = 8.6 °C after 2112 seconds
Rise in surface temperature = 8 °C after 30 minutes
Explanation:
The surface temperature of the aluminum block is given by

Where q is the heat flux supplied to aluminum block, k is the conductivity of pure aluminum and α is the diffusivity of pure aluminum.
After t = 2112 sec:

The rise in the surface temperature is
Rise = 35.1 - 26.5 = 8.6 °C
Therefore, the surface temperature of the block will rise by 8.6 °C after 2112 seconds.
After t = 30 mins:

The rise in the surface temperature is
Rise = 34.5 - 26.5 = 8 °C
Therefore, the surface temperature of the block will rise by 8 °C after 30 minutes.
