Explanation:

25 mi × (1 gallon-equivalent / 114 mi) = 0.219 gallon-equivalent

0.219 gallon-equivalent × (34 kWh / gallon-equivalent) = 7.46 kWh

7.46 kWh × (12 cents / kWh) = 89.5 cents

Rounded up to the nearest cent, it costs 90 cents per 25 miles.

Joe Bruin has a big lawn in front of his house that is 30 meters wide and 20 meters long. Josephine makes him go out and mow the

zysi [14]

<u>Explanation:</u>

5 Horsepower for 30 mins,

(5)(745.7) = 3.7285 KW power delivered

General Efficiency of IC engine = 20%

Power required = $\frac{3 \cdot 7285}{0 \cdot 2}=18 \cdot 6425 kw$

Energy required per week,

=P × Time = 18.64 × 60 × 30 = 33.5565 MJ

Lawn area = (30) (20) = 600 $m^{2}$

let sunlight hours be 8 hours

Hence, solar power input on lawn,

=5.62×3600 = 20232 kJ/ $m^{2}$ /day

energy input in lawn = (600) (20232) (7)

= 84974.4 mJ/week

Chemical efficiency by photosynthesis = 4%

Chemical content in grass = (84974.4) (0.04)

= 3398.97 mJ

Mass of the clippers $=(30)(20)(1 \cdot 096)^{2}(667)$

$=478632 \cdot 33$ pounds

Removing water content,

dried grass clippings $$=95726.46$ pound$

= 11533.25 gallons

Trash cans repaired

$=\frac{11533}{50} =230.66\\=231 cans$

By burning the gas, total energy input = 3398.97 MJ × 0.2

= 679.794 MJ

Efficiency of steeling engine = 20%

Energy output by engine = 679.794 ×0.2

= 135.96 mJ

Energy required by mover = 33.5565 mJ

Hence, Energy (output) ⇒ energy required

Five kilograms of air at 427°C and 600 kPa are contained in a piston–cylinder device. The air expands adiabatically until the pr

son4ous [18]

Answer:

The entropy change of the air is $0.240kJ/kgK$

Explanation:

$T_{1} =427+273K,T_{1} =700K\\P_{1} =600kPa\\P_{2} =100kPa$

$T_{2}$ is unknown

we can apply the following expression to find $T_{2}$

$-w_{out} =mc_{v} (T_{2} -T_{1} )$

$T_{2} =T_{1} -\frac{w_{out } }{mc_{v} }$

now substitute

$T_{2} =700K-\frac{600kJ}{5kg*0.718kJ/kgK} \\T_{2}=533K$

To find entropy change of the air we can apply the ideal gas relationship

Δ $s_{air}$ $=c_{p} ln\frac{T_{2} }{T_{1} } -Rln\frac{P_{2} }{P_{1} }$

Δ $s_{air} =$ $1.005*ln(\frac{533}{700})-0.287* in(\frac{100}{600} )$

Δ $s_{air} =0.240kJ/kgK$
