A closed system consisting of 4 lb of a gas undergoes a process during which the relation between pressure and volume is pVn 5 c

onstant. The process begins with p1 5 15 lbf/in.2, 1 5 1.25 ft3/lb and ends with p2 5 53 lbf/in.2, 2 5 0.5 ft3/lb. Determine (a) the volume, in ft3, occupied by the gas at states 1 and 2 and (b) the value of n. (c) Sketch Process 1–2 on pressure–volume coordinates.

Answer:

V1=5<u>ft3</u>

<u>V2=2ft3</u>

n=1.377

Explanation:

PART A:

the volume of each state is obtained by multiplying the mass by the specific volume in each state

V=volume

v=especific volume

m=mass

V=mv

state 1

V1=m.v1

V1=4lb*1.25ft3/lb=5<u>ft3</u>

state 2

V2=m.v2

V2=4lb*0.5ft3/lb=  <u> 2ft3</u>

PART B:

since the PV ^ n is constant we can equal the equations of state 1 and state 2

P1V1^n=P2V2^n

P1/P2=(V2/V1)^n

ln(P1/P2)=n . ln (V2/V1)

n=ln(P1/P2)/ ln (V2/V1)

n=ln(15/53)/ ln (2/5)

n=1.377

A vector AP is rotated about the Z-axis by 60 degrees and is subsequently rotated about X-axis by 30 degrees. Give the rotation
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

R = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0\\0&cos30&-sin30\\0&sin30&cos30\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}cos 60&-sin60&0\\sin60&cos60&60\0&0&1\end{array}\right]

Explanation:

The mappings always involve a translation and a rotation of the matrix. Therefore, the rotation matrix will be given by:

Let \theta and \alpha be the the angles 60⁰ and 30⁰ respectively

that is \theta = 60⁰ and

\alpha = 30⁰

The matrix is given by the following expression:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0\\0&cos30&-sin30\\0&sin30&cos30\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}cos 60&-sin60&0\\sin60&cos60&60\0&0&1\end{array}\right]

The angles can be evaluated and left in the surd form.

How is the fuel introduced into the Diesel engine?
Ugo [173]

Answer:

diesel fuel is pumped at high pressure to the injectors which are responsible for entering the fuel into the combustion chamber,

when the piston is at the top the pressure is so high that it explodes the fuel (diesel) that results in a generation of mechanical power
