(2a) -A cylinder contains a gas at 200°C, volume 5 liters and a pressure of 2.2MPa. The polytropic process index value (n) of the gas in its initial state is 1.1. Assume the gas constant for the gas is 188.Jkg-1K-1. Calculate the initial mass of the gas. The gas is then cooled to a temperature of 310. At this temperature the pressure is 1.7 MPa. Find the polytropic process index value (n) for the gas after it has been cooled.

Question
(2a) -A cylinder contains a gas at 200°C, volume 5 liters and a pressure of 2.2MPa. The polytropic process
index value (n) of the gas in its initial state is 1.1. Assume the gas constant for the gas is 188.Jkg-1K-1.
Calculate the initial mass of the gas.
The gas is then cooled to a temperature of 310. At this temperature the pressure is 1.7 MPa. Find the
polytropic process index value (n) for the gas after it has been cooled.
(2b)- A gas is stored in a cylinder that has a volume of 1 liters. The gas is stored at a temperature of 380K
and pressure 240mpa. The gas is then released into the air at sea level. Calculate the final temperature
of the gas and the polytropic process index value (n) of the gas.
