An insulated piston–cylinder device contains 0.05 m3 of saturated refrigerant- 134a vapor at 0.8-MPa pressure. The refrigerant i

s now allowed to expand in a reversible manner until the pressure drops to 0.4 MPa. Determine (a) the final temperature in the cylinder and (b) the work done by the refrigerant

Answer:

a) T = 8.91\,^{\textdegree}C, b) W_{out} = 27.744\,kJ

Explanation:

The piston-cylinder device is modelled after the First Law of Thermodynamics:

-W_{out} + P_{1}\cdot V_{1} - P_{2}\cdot V_{2} + m\cdot (u_{1}-u_{2}) = 0

-W_{out} = m \cdot (h_{2}-h_{1})

W_{out} = m\cdot (h_{1}-h_{2})

The properties of the refrigerant 134a are, respectively:

Initial State (Saturated Vapor)

P = 800\,MPa

T = 31.31\,^{\textdegree}C

\nu = 0.025645\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg}

h = 267.34\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

s = 0.91853\,\frac{kJ}{kg\cdot K}

Final State (Liquid-Vapor Mixture)

P = 400\,kPa

T = 8.91\,^{\textdegree}C

h = 253.11\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

s = 0.91853\,\frac{kJ}{kg\cdot K}

x = 0.987

a) The final temperature in the cylinder is T = 8.91\,^{\textdegree}C.

b) The work done by the refrigerant is:

W_{out} = \left(\frac{0.05\,m^{3}}{0.025645\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg} }\right)\cdot \left(267.34\,\frac{kJ}{kg} - 253.11\,\frac{kJ}{kg}\right)

W_{out} = 27.744\,kJ

If the pendulum took longer to complete one oscillation, how would the graph change?
pickupchik [31]

We don't know what kind of graph it is.

For example, it might be a graph of the pendulum's distance from center,

angle from center, speed, acceleration, total distance swung since it was

started, mass, weight, temperature, etc.


If the graph shows the pendulum's distance from center, angle from center,

speed, or acceleration, then the graph will look like a wave, with the period

of the wave being the period of the pendulum's oscillation. If the pendulum

took longer to complete one oscillation, that means its PERIOD increased,

and the distance between the peaks of the graph would be longer.


If it was a graph of total distance the pendulum swung since it was started,

the graph wouldn't look like a wave, just a steadily rising wiggle line. If the

pendulum took longer to complete one oscillation, the wiggles in the line

would be farther apart, and the average slope of any large section of the

line would be less.


If it was a graph of the pendulum's mass, weight, temperature, cost, etc.,

then the graph would be a horizontal line, and nothing that might change

the period of oscillation would have any effect on the graph.

Two forces and are applied to an object whose mass is 13.3 kg. The larger force is . When both forces point due east, the object
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Explanation:

First, It's important to remember F = ma, and in this problem m = 13.3 kg

This can be reduced to a simple system of equations problem.  Now if they are both going the same way then we add them, while if they are going the opposite way we subtract them.  So let's call them F1 and F2, with F1 arger than F2.  Now, When we add them together F1+F2 = (.723 m/s^2)*13.3kg and then when we subtract them, and have the larger one pushing toward the east, let's call F1 the larger one, F1-F2 = (.493 m/s^2)*13.3kg.  

Can you solve this system of equations seeing them like this, or do you need more help?

Assume that the amplifiers on the stage operate at a combined power of 5,000 Watts, and that 80% of this is converted to sound.
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

0.04

Explanation:

Fraction of power converted to sound = 80% = 0.08

Fraction incident upon each eardrum onstage = 0.08/2 = 0.04
