Answer:

a.T_3=1723.8kPa\\b.n=0.563\\c.MEP=674.95kPa

Explanation:

a. Internal energy and the relative specific volume at s_1 are determined  from A-17:u_1=214.07kJ/kg, \ \alpha_r_1=621.2.

The relative specific volume at s_2 is calculated from the compression ratio:

\alpha_r_2=\frac{\alpha_r_1}{r}\\=\frac{621.2}{16}\\=38.825

#from this, the temperature and enthalpy at state 2,s_2 can be determined using interpolations T_2=862K and h_2=890.9kJ/kg. The specific volume at s_1 can then be determined as:

\alpha_1=\frac{RT_1}{P_1}\\\\=\frac{0.287\times 300}{95} m^3/kg\\0.906316m^3/kg

Specific volume,s_2:

\alpha_2=\frac{\alpha_1}{r}\\=\frac{0.906316}{16}m^3/kg\\=0.05664m^3/kg

The pressures at s_2 \ and\  s_3 is:

P_2=P_3=\frac{RT_2}{\alpha_2}\\\\=\frac{0.287\times862}{0.05664}\\=4367.06kPa

.The thermal efficiency=> maximum temperature at s_3 can be obtained from the expansion work at constant pressure during s_2-s_3

\bigtriangleup \omega_2_-_3=P(\alpha_3-\alpha_2)\\R(T_3-T_2)=P\alpha(r_c-1)\\T_3=T_2+\frac{P\alpha_2}{R}(r_c-1)\\\\=(862+\frac{4367\times 0.05664}{0.287}(2-1))K\\=1723.84K

b.Relative SV and enthalpy  at s_3 are obtained for the given temperature with interpolation with data from A-17 :a_r_3=4.553 \ and\  h_3=1909.62kJ/kg

Relative SV at s_4 is

a_r_4=\frac{r}{r_c}\alpha _r_3

==\frac{16}{2}\times4.533\\=36.424

Thermal efficiency occurs when the heat loss is equal to the internal energy decrease and heat gain equal to enthalpy increase;

n=1-\frac{q_o}{q_i}\\=1-\frac{u_4-u_1}{h_3-h_2}\\=1-\frac{65903-214.07}{1909.62-890.9}\\=0.563

Hence, the thermal efficiency is 0.563

c. The mean relative pressure is calculated from its standard definition:

MEP=\frac{\omega}{\alpa_1-\alpa_2}\\=\frac{q_i-q_o}{\alpha_1(1-1/r)}\\=\frac{1909.62-890.9-(65903-214.7)}{0.90632(1-1/16)}\\=674.95kPa

Hence, the mean effective relative pressure is 674.95kPa

Barnard’s Star is a red dwarf. It is located 5.9 light years from Earth. (One light year is the same as 9.46 trillion kilometers
mote1985 [20]
A star is located 5.9 light years from Earth.
We know that : 1 light year = 9.46  trillion kilometers.
We will calculate the distance in trillion kilometers multiplying the number of light years by 9.46:
5.9 * 9.46 = 55.814
Answer: The distance is 55.814 trillion km.

Why do elements in the same group or column of the periodic table have similar properties? A. They have the same number of proto
Oxana [17]
The Answer is C. The outer shell electrons are the electrons which are involved with chemical reactions and bonding. All elements in the same group have different number of total electrons but ALL have the same number of outer shell electrons. This is why they exhibit similar chemical properties.
