Answer:
The Entropy generated by the steam = 2.821 kJ/K
Explanation:
Total volume of container = 5m³
Heat transfer does not exist between system and surrounding, dQ = 0
At the first chamber, temperature of water at saturated liquid is 300°C
From the steam table:
Specific enthalpy of saturated liquid at 300°C ,
Specific internal energy of saturated liquid at 300°C, 1332.7 kJ/kg
For closed system, the first law of thermodynamics state that:
dQ = dw + dU..................(1)
work done for free expansion, dw =0
0 = 0 + dU
dU = 0 , i.e. U₁ = U₂
At the second chamber,
The final pressure, P₂ = 50 kPa
From the steam table, at P₂ = 50 kPa, = 340.49 kJ/kg
Let the dryness fraction at the second chamber = x
Since U₁ = U₂
1332.7 = 340.49 + x2140.7
Dryness fraction, x = 0.463
From steam table, the specific volume is,
V₂ = 5 m³
1.5 = 5/m₂
m₂ = 3.33 kg
At 300°C
From the steam table,
Therefore the entropy generated will be :
Entropy = mass* (S₂ - S₁)
Entropy = 3.33* (4.102 - 3.2548)
Entropy = 2.821 kJ/K
Answer:
μ = 0.692
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must make a free body diagram and include the respective forces acting on the body. Similarly, deduce the respective equations according to the conditions of the problem and the directions of the forces.
Attached is an image with the respective forces:
A summation of forces on the Y-axis is performed equal to zero, in order to determine the normal force N. this summation is equal to zero since there is no movement on the Y-axis.
Since the body moves at a constant speed, there is no acceleration so the sum of forces on the X-axis must be equal to zero.
The frictional force is defined as the product of the coefficient of friction by the normal force. In this way, we can calculate the coefficient of friction.
The process of solving this problem can be seen in the attached image.
