Answer:64.10 Btu/lbm

Explanation:

Work done in an isothermally compressed steady flow device is expressed as

Work done = P₁V₁ In { P₁/ P₂}

Work done=RT In { P₁/ P₂}

where P₁=13 psia

          P₂= 80 psia

Temperature =°F Temperature is convert to  °R

T(°R) = T(°F) + 459.67

T(°R) = 55°F+ 459.67

=514.67T(°R)

According to the properties of molar gas, gas constant and critical properties table, R  which s the gas constant of air is given as 0.06855 Btu/lbm

Work = RT In { P₁/ P₂}

0.06855 x 514.67 In { 13/ 80}

=0.06855 x 514.67 In {0.1625}

= 0.06855 x 514.67  x -1.817

=- 64.10Btu/lbm

The required work therefore for this  isothermal compression is 64.10 Btu/lbm

marin [14]

Answer:

(a) Increases

(b) Increases

(c) Increases

(d) Increases

(e) Decreases

Explanation:

The tensile modulus of a semi-crystalline polymer depends on the given factors as:

(a) Molecular Weight:

It increases with the increase in the molecular weight of the polymer.

(b) Degree of crystallinity:

Tensile strength of the semi-crystalline polymer increases with the increase in the degree of crystallinity of the polymer.

(c) Deformation by drawing:

The deformation by drawing in the polymer results in the finely oriented chain structure of the polymer with the greater inter chain secondary bonding structure resulting in the increase in the tensile strength of the polymer.

(d) Annealing of an undeformed material:

This also results in an increase in the tensile strength of the material.

(e) Annealing of  a drawn material:

A semi crystalline material which is drawn when annealed results in the decreased tensile strength of the material.
