Dr. Thermo, only has one bottle of neon. However, he needs to run two experiments, each requiring its own bottle. Therefore, he

plans to connect the two bottles together and open the valves on each so that each bottle is partially filled. He wants to know how the enthalpy of the gas will change when he performs this operation. Each bottle has an internal volume of 43.8 L, is completely rigid, and fully insulated. At the start, the full bottle has a pressure of 1.1 MPa, the second bottle is completely evacuated, and both are at room temperature (298 K). After the valves are opened, the two bottles come to equilibrium at 346 kPa. You can assume that neon behaves ideally during this process.
a. Dr. Thermo wants you to derive an equation for H(P.V) and then use that equation to determine the change in enthalpy by integration, showing him all your work.
b. Being a thermo wiz, you know there is another (and easier) way to perform this calculation. Verify your answer to part a using this easier way.

Solution:

The data provided in the question are :

$V_1 = V_2 = 43.8\ L$

             = $ \frac{43.8}{1000}\ m^3$

$ P_1 = 1.1\ MPa$   and   $ P_2 = 0$

Initial pressure of neon = 1.1 MPa

Final Pressure =  346 kPa

Initial temperature of neon = 298 K

$P_1V_1=mRT_1$

$ 1.1 \times 10^6 \times \frac{43.8}{1000} =  m \times \frac{8314}{MM}\times 298$

Molecular mass of neon = 20.1797 g/mole

m = 0.3924 kg

For final temperature:

$P_fV_f=mRT_f$

$V_f = 2 \times \frac{43.8}{1000}$

$ 346 \times 1000 \times 2 \times \frac{43.8}{1000} = m \times \frac{8314}{20.1797} \times T_f$

$ \therefore T_f = 187.48\ K$

a). From first law of thermodynamics :

δQ = δU + δW

Tds = dU + PdV

or dH =  dTs + VdP

As system is insulator,  Tds = 0

$ \Delta H = \left( \frac{P_1V_1-P_2V_2}{\gamma - 1} \right)^{\gamma}$      as  $PV^{\gamma}$  = constant

$P_1V_1^{\gamma}= PV^{\gamma}$

$V= \left( \frac{P_1V_1^{\gamma}}{P} \right)^{\frac{1}{\gamma}}$

Substituting in VdP and integrating, the above equation is obtained.

So, γ = 1.67 (mono atomic neon)

$ \Delta H = 1.67 \times \frac{(1.1 \times 10^6 \times 0.0438 - 346 \times 10^3 \times 2 \times 0.0438)}{1.67-1}$

$ \Delta H = 44942.63\ J$

$ \Delta H = 44.942\ kJ$

b). Easier way is :

$ \Delta H = mC_P\Delta T$

$ \Delta H = 0.3924 \times C_P(T_f-T_1)$

$C_P = \frac{\gamma R}{\gamma-1}$

     $= \frac{1.67 \times 8314}{0.67 \times 20.1797}$

     = 1026.92 J/kg-K

$ \Delta H = 0.3924 \times 1026.92 (187.48-298)$

      $ = -44.585\ kJ$

The negative sign indicates decrease in enthalpy.

The answer by easier way is very near to the value in part (a).

Error (%) =  $ \frac{44.942-44.585}{44.942}  \times 100$

              = 0.015 %   (which is negligible)

Therefore, both the answers are same.

What are some advantages of generating electrical energy from tides instead of from fossil fuels
harina [27]

Answer:

Efficent at low speeds.

Explanation:

Since water is 1,000 times more dense than air, electricity can generated from tides much more efficiently at slower speeds than wind turbines can.

Write torsion equation and explain the importance of each components.<br>​
Elanso [62]
The equations are based on the following assumptions

1) The bar is straight and of uniform section
2) The material of the bar is has uniform properties.
3) The only loading is the applied torque which is applied normal to the axis of the bar.
4) The bar is stressed within its elastic limit.

Nomenclature

T = torque (Nm)
l = length of bar (m)
J = Polar moment of inertia.(Circular Sections) ( m^4)
J' = Polar moment of inertia.(Non circluar sections) ( m^4 )
K = Factor replacing J for non-circular sections.( m^4)
r = radial distance of point from center of section (m)
ro = radius of section OD (m)
τ = shear stress (N/m^2)
G Modulus of rigidity (N/m^2)
θ = angle of twist (radians)

An 800-kg drag racer accelerates from rest to 390 km/hr in 5.8 s. What is the net impulse applied to the racer in the first 5.8
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Impulse =14937.9 N

tangential force =14937.9 N

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of car m= 800 kg

initial velocity u=0

Final velocity v=390 km/hr

Final velocity v=108.3 m/s

So change in linear momentum P= m x v

           P= 800 x 108.3

 P=86640 kg.m/s

We know that impulse force F= P/t

So F= 86640/5.8 N

F=14937.9 N

Impulse force F= 14937.9 N

We know that

v=u + at

108.3 = 0 + a x 5.8

a=18.66\ m/s^2

So tangential force F= m x a

F=18.66 x 800

F=14937.9 N
