Answer:

A. Less than 2.9

Explanation:

Richter scale is a measure of the intensity of the earthquakes designed and developed by Charles Richter in 1935. Its value ranges from 1.0 to 9.0 and greater. The earthquakes having a Richter magnitude of less than 2.9 are minor earthquakes which are slightly felt by a few humans but can be recorded on a seismograph. Earthquakes with magnitude above 2.9 can easily be felt by humans.

Carbon dioxide in a piston-‐‐cylinder is expanded in a polytropic manner. The initialtemperature and pressure are 400 K and 550
Arisa [49]

Answer:

 q_poly = 14.55 KJ/kg

Explanation:

Given:

Initial State:

P_i = 550 KPa

T_i = 400 K

Final State:

T_f = 350 K

Constants:

R = 0.189 KJ/kgK

k = 1.289 = c_p / c_v

n = 1.2   (poly-tropic index)

Find:

Determine the heat transfer per kg in the process.

Solution:

-The heat transfer per kg of poly-tropic process is given by the expression:

                            q_poly = w_poly*(k - n)/(k-1)

- Evaluate w_poly:

                            w_poly = R*(T_f - T_i)/(1-n)

                            w_poly = 0.189*(350 - 400)/(1-1.2)

                            w_poly = 47.25 KJ/kg

-Hence,

                           q_poly = 47.25*(1.289 - 1.2)/(1.289-1)

                           q_poly = 14.55 KJ/kg
