s, air is at 98 kPa and 27°C. The pressure is doubled during the constant-volume heat-addition process. Accounting for the variation of specific heats with temperature, determine (a) the amount of heat transferred to the air (qout), (b) the net work output, (c) the thermal efficiency, and (d) the mean effective pressure for the cycle.

Answer:

(a) The amount of heat transferred to the air, q_{out} is 215.5077 kJ/kg

(b) The net work output, W_{net}, is 308.07 kJ/kg

(c) The thermal efficiency is 58.8%

(d) The Mean Effective Pressure, MEP, is 393.209 kPa

Explanation:

(a) The assumptions made are;

c_p = 1.005 kJ/(kg·K), c_v = 0.718 kJ/(kg·K), R = 0.287 kJ/(kg·K),

Process 1 to 2 is isentropic compression, therefore;

T_{2}= T_{1}\left (\dfrac{v_{1}}{v_{2}}  \right )^{k-1} = 300.15\times 9.2^{0.4} = 729.21 \, K

From;

\dfrac{p_{1}\times v_{1}}{T_{1}} = \dfrac{p_{2}\times v_{2}}{T_{2} }

We have;

p_{2} = \dfrac{p_{1}\times v_{1}\times T_{2}}{T_{1} \times v_{2}} = \dfrac{98\times 9.2\times 729.21}{300.15 } = 2190.43 \, kPa

Process 2 to 3 is reversible constant volume heating, therefore;

\dfrac{p_3}{T_3} =\dfrac{p_2}{T_2}

p₃ = 2 × p₂ = 2 × 2190.43 = 4380.86 kPa

T_3 = \dfrac{p_3 \times T_2}{p_2} =\dfrac{4380.86  \times 729.21}{2190.43} = 1458.42 \, K

Process 3 to 4 is isentropic expansion, therefore;

T_{3}= T_{4}\left (\dfrac{v_{4}}{v_{3}}  \right )^{k-1}

1458.42= T_{4} \times \left (9.2 \right )^{0.4}

T_4 = \dfrac{1458.42}{(9.2)^{0.4}}  = 600.3 \, K

q_{out} = m \times c_v \times (T_4 - T_1) = 0.718  \times (600.3 - 300.15) = 215.5077 \, kJ/kg

The amount of heat transferred to the air, q_{out} = 215.5077 kJ/kg

(b) The net work output, W_{net}, is found as follows;

W_{net} = q_{in} - q_{out}

q_{in} = m \times c_v \times (T_3 - T_2) = 0.718  \times (1458.42 - 729.21) = 523.574 \, kJ/kg

\therefore W_{net} = 523.574 - 215.5077 = 308.07 \, kJ/kg

(c) The thermal efficiency is given by the relation;

\eta_{th} = \dfrac{W_{net}}{q_{in}} \times 100=  \dfrac{308.07}{523.574} \times 100= 58.8\%

(d) From the general gas equation, we have;

V_{1} = \dfrac{m\times R\times T_{1}}{p_{1}} = \dfrac{1\times 0.287\times 300.15}{98} =0.897\, m^{3}/kg

The Mean Effective Pressure, MEP, is given as follows;

MEP =\dfrac{W_{net}}{V_1 - V_2} = \dfrac{W_{net}}{V_1 \times (1- 1/r)}= \dfrac{308.07}{0.897\times (1- 1/9.2)} = 393.209 \, kPa

The Mean Effective Pressure, MEP = 393.209 kPa.

A packet weighs 40kg in air but when it is totally submerged into a 1mx1m square tank the weight of the packet is only 18kg. How
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

water  rise = 22 mm

Explanation:

weight of packet IN AIR = 40 *9.81 =392.4 N

weight of packet  IN WATER= 18 *9.81 =176.58 N

by Archimedi's principle

difference in weight = weight of displaced water

w_a - w_w = \rho_w v_d g

392.4 - 176.58 = 1000* v_d* 9.81

v_d = 0.022 m^3

v_d = A*H_rise

0.022 =1*H_rise

H_rise = 0.022 m = 22 mm

water  rise = 22 mm

At what voltage would a () capacitor have the minimum energy to raise by ignoring all losses in the system? If needed, you may a
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

V = 280.15 V

Explanation:

" The complete question is attached with figure"

Given:

- The capacitance of the capacitor C = 10 nF

- The amount of mass attached to motor m = 4 grams

- The amount of distance it is to be lifted h = 1 cm

- Ignore all other losses in the system

Find:

- The voltage required to lift the mass m through distance h?

Solution:

- The conservation of energy for the entire system is written as:

                            Work_gravity = U_c

Where,

           Work_gravity: Work done by gravity on mass m

           U_c: The amount of energy stored in a capacitor

                             m*g*h = 0.5*C*V^2

                             V^2 = 2*m*g*h / C

                             V = sqrt ( 2*m*g*h / C )

Plug in the values:

                             V = sqrt ( 2*0.004*9.81*0.01 / 10*10^-9 )

                             V = sqrt ( 78,480)

                             V = 28.15 V

Which reaction takes place when you combine two metals with different electrical conductivites?
faust18 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

1.3 PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES

Learning Objectives

By the end of this section, you will be able to:

Identify properties of and changes in matter as physical or chemical

Identify properties of matter as extensive or intensive

 

The characteristics that enable us to distinguish one substance from another are called properties. A physical property is a characteristic of matter that is not associated with a change in its chemical composition. Familiar examples of physical properties include density, color, hardness, melting and boiling points, and electrical conductivity. We can observe some physical properties, such as density and color, without changing the physical state of the matter observed. Other physical properties, such as the melting temperature of iron or the freezing temperature of water, can only be observed as matter undergoes a physical change. A physical change is a change in the state or properties of matter without any accompanying change in its chemical composition (the identities of the substances contained in the matter). We observe a physical change when wax melts, when sugar dissolves in coffee, and when steam condenses into liquid water (Figure 1). Other examples of physical changes include magnetizing and demagnetizing metals (as is done with common antitheft security tags) and grinding solids into powders (which can sometimes yield noticeable changes in color). In each of these examples, there is a change in the physical state, form, or properties of the substance, but no change in its chemical composition.
