Consider a Carnot cycle executed in a closed system with 0.6 kg of air. The temperature limits of the cycle are 300 and 1100 K,

and the minimum and maximum pressures that occur during the cycle are 20 and 3000 kPa. Assuming constant specific heats, determine the net work output per cycle.

Answer:

63.8 kJ

Explanation:

The net work output per cycle is the difference in heat input and heat output. The heat input and heat output are expressed as a function of volume ratios, while volume is expressed as a function of pressure and pressure as a function of temperature.

R = 287 J/kg.K, k = 1.4

Hence the net work input (W) is given as:

W=Q_{in}-Q_{out}\\\\W=mR[T_Hln\frac{V_2}{V_1} -T_Lln\frac{V_3}{V_4}]\\\\=mR[T_Hln\frac{P_1}{P_2} -T_Lln\frac{P_4}{P_3}]\\\\=mR[T_Hln(\frac{P_1}{P_3}(\frac{T_L}{T_H} )^\frac{k}{k-1})  -T_Lln(\frac{P_1}{P_3}(\frac{T_L}{T_H} )^\frac{k}{k-1})]\\\\=mR(T_H-T_L)ln(\frac{P_1}{P_3}(\frac{T_L}{T_H} )^\frac{k}{k-1})\\\\Substituting\ values:\\\\W=mR(T_H-T_L)ln(\frac{P_1}{P_3}(\frac{T_L}{T_H} )^\frac{k}{k-1})=0.6*287(1100-300)ln(\frac{3000*10^3}{2-*10^3}(\frac{300}{1100} )^\frac{1.4}{1.4-1})\\\\

W=63.8\ kJ

1)why do we get electric shock while holding a live wire barefooted and not when wearing rubber shoes?
katrin2010 [14]
Electricity is always going to take the path of least resistance to ground. The rubber in your shoes is not a conductor of electricity, therefore you are not completing the circuit and you don't get shocked. Your bare feet, on the other hand ARE conductors of electricity, so when you hold the wire, you complete the circuit and become the path of least resistance to ground... ZAP!
