1. A closed vertical cylinder containing 0.3 kg of nitrogen at 90 °C is fitted with a weighted, frictionless piston so that a constant pressure of 275 kPa is maintained on the gas. The nitrogen is stirred by a paddle wheel inserted through the cylinder wall until the absolute temperature of the gas is doubled. During the process, 20 kJ of heat is transferred from the nitrogen to the surroundings. Determine the amount of paddle-wheel work required for this process. [Ans: -101.1 kJ]

First Law of Thermodynamics Conservation of Energy - Closed Systems.
1. A closed vertical cylinder containing 0.3 kg of nitrogen at 90 °C is fitted with a weighted, frictionless piston
so that a constant pressure of 275 kPa is maintained on the gas. The nitrogen is stirred by a paddle wheel
inserted through the cylinder wall until the absolute temperature of the gas is doubled. During the process,
20 kJ of heat is transferred from the nitrogen to the surroundings. Determine the amount of paddle-wheel
work required for this process.
[Ans: -101.1 kJ]
2. A closed system contains 30 g of a gas. How much heat (in Joules) is added to or rejected by the system to
produce 5000 N-m of work while the stored energy decreases by 200 J/g?
