3.1. A thin-walled metal container of volume V contains a gas at high pressure. Connected to the container is a capillary tube and stopcock. When the stopcock is opened slightly, the gas leaks slowly into a cylinder equipped with a nonleaking, frictionless piston, where the pressure remains constant at the atmospheric value Po. (a) Show that, after as much gas as possible has leaked out, an amount of work W = -Po(Vo – V) has been done, where Vo is the volume of the gas at atmospheric pressure and temperature. (b) How much work would be done if the gas leaked directly into the atmosphere?

The pressure in an automobile tire depends on the temperature of the air in the tire. When the air temperature is 25 degC, the pressure gage reads 210 kPa. If the volume of the tire is 0.025 m^3, the pressure rises in the tire when the air temperature in the tire rises to 50 degC. Determine the amount of air, in kg, that must be bled off to restore pressure to its original value at this temperature. Assume the atmospheric pressure to be 100 kPa
hi, can you solve this question ? The A and B tanks given in the figure are separated from each other by the closed valve between them. The water vapor in tank A has a volume of 0.2 m3, a temperature of 150 ° C and a pressure of 100 kPa. Tank B is filled with saturated water vapor in a volume of 0.3 m3 at a pressure of 300 kPa. Then, the valve between the tanks is opened and the final pressure is 175 kPa as a result of the mixing of the fluids in the tanks with each other and sufficient heat transfer. According to this:a) Temperature (C) and phase of the fluid in the final state;b) Find the amount of heat transfer in the process result.
b. Two cylinders are filled with liquid water (p = 998 kg/m³), and connected by a pipe line with a closed valve. Cylinders A (inside diameter = 42.75 cm) and B (inside diameter = 55 cm) contain 125 kg and 450 kg of water, respectively. The height h as indicated in Fig. 3 is 0.85 m. Determine the pressure (in kPa) of cylinder A and cylinder B on either side of the valve. If the valve is opened such that water flows to an equilibrium between the two cylinders, find the final pressure (in atm) at the valve location. Assume Po= 100 kPa. k Po B g Figure 3 Po A
There is 3.5 L saturated liquid water at 175 kPa pressure in the frictionless moving piston-cylinder system shown in the figure. The heat given to the system is 500 kJ and the electrical work is 1320 kJ. Since half of the water evaporates at constant pressure; a) Write the energy balance equation (First Law), b) Calculate the mass (kg) of water, c) Calculate the required shaft work (kW), d) Show the process in T-v and P-v diagrams, including saturated liquid and saturated vapor curves
Refrigerant 134a expands in a piston-cylinder assembly from p₁= 200 lb/in² and T₁ = 140°F to p₂ = 30 lb/in² and T₂ = 80 °F. The mass of refrigerant is 0.46 lb. During the process, the work done by the refrigerant is 4.32 Btu. Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Determine the initial volume of the refrigerant, V₁, in ft³, and the heat transfer for the process, in Btu. Step 1 * Your answer is incorrect. Determine the initial volume of the refrigerant, V₁, in ft³. V₁= 0.105743 ft3
EXTRA CREDIT PROBLEM: Oxygen is flowing steadily in a pipe that is gaining or losing heat from the surroundings at 200 °C. The measured values for the pressure and temperature at two locations (A and B) along the pipe are shown below. Assuming that oxygen is an ideal gas, establish the direction of the flow of oxygen in the pipe. Neglect work during this process.
