Answer:
a. 9947 m
b. 99476 times
c. 2*10^11 molecules
Explanation:
a) To find the mean free path of the air molecules you use the following formula:
R: ideal gas constant = 8.3144 Pam^3/mol K
P: pressure = 1.5*10^{-6} Pa
T: temperature = 300K
N_A: Avogadros' constant = 2.022*10^{23}molecules/mol
d: diameter of the particle = 0.25nm=0.25*10^-9m
By replacing all these values you obtain:
b) If we assume that the molecule, at the average, is at the center of the chamber, the times the molecule will collide is:
c) By using the equation of the ideal gases you obtain:
Answer:
(a) Calculate the rod base temperature (°C). = 299.86°C
(b) Determine the rod length (mm) for the case where the ratio of the heat transfer from a finite length fin to the heat transfer from a very long fin under the same conditions is 99 percent. = 0.4325m

Answer:
The temperature attains equilibrium with the surroundings.
Explanation:
When the light bulb is lighted we know that it's temperature will go on increasing as the filament of the bulb has to constantly dissipates energy during the time in which it is on. Now this energy is dissipated as heat as we know it, this heat energy is absorbed by the material of the bulb which is usually made up of glass, increasing it's temperature. Now we know that any object with temperature above absolute zero has to dissipate energy in form of radiations.
Thus we conclude that the bulb absorbs as well as dissipates it's absorbed thermal energy. we know that this rate is dependent on the temperature of the bulb thus it the temperature of the bulb does not change we can infer that an equilibrium has been reached in the above 2 processes i.e the rate of energy absorption equals the rate of energy dissipation.
Steady state is the condition when the condition does not change with time no matter whatever the surrounding conditions are.
Answer:
Suction and exhaust processes do not affect the performance of Otto cycle.
Explanation:
Step1
Inlet and exhaust flow processes are not including in the Otto cycle because the effect and nature of both the process are same in opposite direction.
Step2
Inlet process or the suction process is the process of suction of working fluid inside the cylinder. The suction process is the constant pressure process. The exhaust process is the process of exhaust out at constant pressure.
Step3
The suction and exhaust process have same work and heat in opposite direction. So, net effect of suction and exhaust processes cancels out. The suction and exhaust processes are shown below in P-V diagram of Otto cycle:
Process 0-1 is suction process and process 1-0 is exhaust process.
