Answer:

24.72 kwh

Explanation:

Electric energy=potential energy=mgz where m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and z is the elevation.

Substituting the given values while taking g as 9.81 and dividing by 3600 to convert to per hour we obtain

PE=(108*9.81*84)/3600=24.72 kWh

AUs¡ = Ws¡ = -5601.55

Explanation:

A clear details for the question is also attached.

(b) The P,V and T for state 1,2 and 3

P =1 bar Ti = 300 K and Vi from ideal gas Vi=

24.9x10 m

=

P-5 bar

Due to step 12 is isothermal: T1 = T2= 300 K and

VVi24.9 x 10x-4.9 x 10-3 *

The values at 3 calclated by Uing step 3l Adiabatic process

B-P ()

Since step 23 is Isochoric: Va =Vs= 4.99 m* and 7=

Ps-1x(4.99 x 103

P-1x(29x 10)

9.49 barr

And Ts =Ta E)- 300(

569.5 K

(c) For step 12: Isothermal, Since AT = 0 then AH12 = AU12 = 0 and

Work done for Isotermal process define as

8.314 x 300 In =4014.26

Wi2= RTi ln

mol

And fromn first law of thermodynamic

AU12= W12 +Q12

Q12-W12 = -4014.26

Mol

F'or step 23 Isochoric: AV = 0 Since volume change is zero W23= 0 and

Alls = Cp(L3-12)=5 x 8.311 (569.5 - 300) = 7812.18-

AU23= C (13-72) =5 x 8.314 (569.3 - 300) = 5601.53

Inol

Now from first law of thermodynamic the Q23

AU2s = Q23= 5601.55

Mol

For step 3-1 Adiabatic: Since in this process no heat transfer occur Q31= 0

and

AH

C,(T -Ts)=x 8.314 (300- 569.5)= -7842.18

mol

AU=C, (T¡-T)= x 8.314 (300

-5601.55

569.5)

mol

Now from first law of thermodynamie the Ws1

J

mol

AUs¡ = Ws¡ = -5601.55

because not all substances react the same to temperature changes. If you heat a metal and an organic substance and you turn the temperature up, the organic substance like water will react (boil) while most metals need higher temperature to react.
