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

  • Height=h=500m
  • Acceleration=g=10m/s^2
  • Initial velocity=u=0
  • Speed of sound=c=340m/s
  • TIME TAKEN BY STONE TO HIT WATER=t
  • Time taken by sound to hear back=T

Now

\\ \sf\longmapsto h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

\\ \sf\longmapsto h=0t+\dfrac{1}{2}10t^2

\\ \sf\longmapsto 500=5t^2

\\ \sf\longmapsto t^2=100

\\ \sf\longmapsto t=10s

Now

\\ \sf\longmapsto h=cT

\\ \sf\longmapsto T=\dfrac{h}{c}

\\ \sf\longmapsto T=\dfrac{500}{340}

\\ \sf\longmapsto T=1.47\approx 1.5s

Total time:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto T_{net}=t+T=10+1.5=11.5s

Describe why cars are inefficient machines in terms of thermodynamics.
Alina [70]

Cars are the mechanical device which convert chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, the engine used in the automobiles car are very inefficient, they can only convert 30-40% of chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, since thermodynamics is the branch of science that deals with the conversion of energy, thus due to poor conversion rate of chemical energy into mechanical energy, cars are known as inefficient machine.

A 1.3-kg model airplane flies in a circular path on the end of a 23-m line. The plane makes
storchak [24]

(a) The plane makes 4.3 revolutions per minute, so it makes a single revolution in

(1 min) / (4.3 rev) ≈ 0.2326 min ≈ 13.95 s ≈ 14 s

(b) The plane completes 1 revolution in about 14 s, so that in this time it travels a distance equal to the circumference of the path:

(2<em>π</em> (23 m)) / (14 s) ≈ 10.3568 m/s ≈ 10 m/s

(c) The plane accelerates toward the center of the path with magnitude

<em>a</em> = (10 m/s)² / (23 m) ≈ 4.6636 m/s² ≈ 4.7 m/s²

(d) By Newton's second law, the tension in the line is

<em>F</em> = (1.3 kg) (4.7 m/s²) ≈ 6.0627 N ≈ 6.1 N
