Answer:

a) i) The maximum pressure is approximately 122.37 bar

ii) The thermal efficiency is approximately 56.47%

iii) The mean effective pressure is approximately 20.974 bar

b) (b) Four types of internal combustion engine includes;

1) The diesel engine

2) The Otto engine

3) The Brayton engine

4) The Wankel engine

Explanation:

The parameters of the Otto cycle are;

The heat added, Q_{in} = 2,800 kJ/kg

The compression ratio, r = 8

The beginning compression pressure, P₁ = 1 bar

The beginning compression temperature, T₁ = 300 K

Cp = 1.005 kJ/kg·K

Cv = 0.718 kJ/kg·K

R = 287 kJ/kg·K

K = Cp/Cv = 1.005 kJ/kg·K/(0.718 kJ/kg·K) ≈ 1.4

T₂ = T₁×r^(k - 1)

∴ T₂ = 300 K×8^(1.4 - 1) ≈ 689.219 K

\dfrac{P_1\cdot V_1}{T_1}  = \dfrac{P_2\cdot V_2}{T_2}

P_2 = \dfrac{P_1\cdot V_1 \cdot T_2}{T_1 \cdot V_2}  = \dfrac{V_1}{V_2} \cdot  \dfrac{P_1 \cdot T_2}{T_1 } = r \cdot  \dfrac{P_1 \cdot T_2}{T_1 }

∴ P₂ = 8 × 1 bar × (689.219K)/300 K ≈ 18.379 bar

Q_{in} = m·Cv·(T₃ - T₂)

∴ Q_{in} = 2,800 ≈ 0.718 × (T₃ - 689.219)

T₃ = 2,800/0.718 + 689.219 = 4588.94 K

P₃ = P₂ × (T₃/T₂)

P₃ = 18.379 bar × 4588.94K/(689.219 K) = 122.37 bar

The maximum pressure = P₃ ≈ 122.37 bar

(ii) The thermal efficiency, \eta_{Otto}, is given as follows;

\eta_{Otto} = 1 - \dfrac{1}{r^{k - 1}}

Therefore, we have;

\eta_{Otto} = 1 - \dfrac{1}{8^{1.4 - 1}} \approx 0.5647

The thermal efficiency, \eta_{Otto} ≈ 0.5647

Therefore, the thermal efficiency ≈ 56.47%

(iii) The mean effective pressure, MEP is given as follows;

MEP = \dfrac{\left(P_3 - P_1 \cdot r^k \right) \cdot \left(1 - \dfrac{1}{r^{k-1}} \right)}{(k -1)\cdot (r - 1)}

Therefore, we get;

MEP = \dfrac{\left(122.37 - 1 \times 8^{1.4} \right) \cdot \left(1 - \dfrac{1}{8^{1.4-1}} \right)}{(1.4 -1)\cdot (8 - 1)} \approx 20.974

The mean effective pressure, MEP ≈ 20.974 bar

(b) Four types of internal combustion engine includes;

1) The diesel engine; Compression heating is the source of the ignition, with constant pressure combustion

2) The Otto engine which is the internal combustion engine found in cars that make use of gasoline as the source of fuel

The Otto engine cycle comprises of five steps; intake, compression, ignition, expansion and exhaust

3) The Brayton engine works on the principle of the steam turbine

4) The Wankel it follows the pattern of the Otto cycle but it does not have piston strokes

The 15-kg block A slides on the surface for which µk = 0.3. The block has a velocity v = 10 m/s when it is s = 4 m from the 10-k
sammy [17]

Answer:

s_max = 0.8394m

Explanation:

From equilibrium of block, N = W = mg

Frictional force = μ_k•N = μ_k•mg

Since μ_k = 0.3,then F = 0.3mg

To determine the velocity of Block A just before collision, let's apply the principle of work and energy;

T1 + ΣU_1-2 = T2

So, (1/2)m_a•(v_ao)² - F•s =(1/2)m_a•(v_a1)²

Plugging in the relevant values to get ;

(1/2)•(15)•(10)² - (0.3•15•9.81•4) =(1/2)(15)•(v_a1)²

750 - 176.58 = 7.5(v_a1)²

v_a1 = 8.744 m/s

Using law of conservation of momentum;

Σ(m1v1) = Σ(m2v2)

Thus,

m_a•v_a1 + m_b•v_b1 = m_a•v_a2 + m_b•v_b2

Thus;

15(8.744) + 10(0) = 15(v_a2) + 10(v_b2)

Divide through by 5;

3(8.744) + 2(0) = 3(v_a2) + 2(v_b2)

Thus,

3(v_a2) + 2(v_b2) = 26.232 - - - (eq1)

Coefficient of restitution has a formula;

e = (v_b2 - v_a2)/(v_a1 - v_b1)

From the question, e = 0.6.

Thus;

0.6 = (v_b2 - v_a2)/(8.744 - 0)

0.6 x 8.744 = (v_b2 - v_a2)

(v_b2 - v_a2) = 5.246 - - - (eq2)

Solving eq(1) and 2 simultaneously, we have;

v_b2 = 8.394 m/s

v_a2 = 3.148 m/s

Now, to find maximum compression, let's apply conservation of energy on block B;

T1 + V1 = T2 + V2

Thus,

(1/2)m_b•(v_b2)² + (1/2)k(s_1)² = (1/2)m_b•(v_b'2)² + (1/2)k(s_max)²

(1/2)10•(8.394)² + (1/2)1000(0)² = (1/2)10•(0)² + (1/2)(1000)(s_max)²

500(s_max)² = 352.29618

(s_max)² = 352.29618/500

(s_max)² = 0.7046

s_max = 0.8394m

Gold forms a substitutional solid solution with silver. Compute the number of gold atoms per cubic centimeter for a silver-gold
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Compute the number of gold atoms per cubic centimeter = 9.052 x 10^21 atoms/cm3

Explanation:

The step by step and appropriate substitution is as shown in the attachment.

From number of moles = Concentration x volume

number of moles = number of particles/ Avogadro's number

Volume = mass/density, the appropriate derivation to get the number of moles of atoms

Answer:

Sealing agent

Explanation:

Generally, when we have water leaks in almost any building or equipment, we use a sealant. However, this sealant could be of different types depending on the peculiarity of the leakage.

Thus, the correct answer is sealing agent.

For some transformation having kinetics that obey the Avrami equation (Equation 10.17), the parameter n is known to have a value
OleMash [197]

Answer:

t = 25.10 sec

Explanation:

we know that Avrami equation

Y = 1 - e^{-kt^n}

here Y is percentage of completion  of reaction = 50%

t  is duration of reaction = 146 sec

so,

0.50 = 1 - e^{-k^146^2.1}

0.50 = e^{-k306.6}

taking natural log on both side

ln(0.5) = -k(306.6)

k = 2.26\times 10^{-3}

for 86 % completion

0.86 = 1 - e^{-2.26\times 10^{-3} \times t^{2.1}}

e^{-2.26\times 10^{-3} \times t^{2.1}} = 0.14

-2.26\times 10^{-3} \times t^{2.1} = ln(0.14)

t^{2.1} = 869.96

t = 25.10 sec
