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

It takes 30 s to fill up the container. If the inlet pressure is 2 atm and the nozzle exit is 0.8 m above the hosea. What is the velocity (m/s) of water at the outlet stream and at the inlet stream?b. What is the water pressure (atm) at the outlet stream c. What is the mass flow rate of water (kg/s)?
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
As shown in the figure below, a hydraulic system has two pistons of different diameter and uses a liquid of density ? = 850 kg/m3. The smaller piston has a diameter of 5.5 cm and a mass of 1.6 kg and the larger piston a diameter of 14 cm and a mass of 2.8 kg. Determine h, the height difference between the two pistons.
Billy flew from New York to Cincinnati and had a closed container with a closed outlet to drink from. The container has a diameter of (D. = 5 cm) and height of (H. = 27 cm). The container is filled with 72% of water. The container's outlet has a diameter of (D. = 1 cm) and height of (H, = 30 cm). Last moment container was opened was in New York at an atmospheric pressure of 1072 hPA. When Billy landed in Cincinnati the atmospheric pressure was 850. When Billy opened the bottle once again water discharged because of difference in pressure. 1. Calculate instantaneous flow rate at the point when the closed containers outlet was opened. Assume pressure in the closed container is the difference between cities = 222 hPa and air pressure in Cincinnati 0. Figure 1: Do = Icm Ho = 30 cm %3D 27 = H. Cm Hw Dc =5 Cm
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
c) Consider a U-tube whose arms are open to the atmosphere. Now equal volumes of water and light oil (dersity=49.3 kg/m?) are poured from different arms. Air Oil Water 30 in A person blows fromthe oil side of the U-tube until the contact surface of the two fluids mmves to the bottomof the U-tube, and thus the liquid levels in the two arms are the same. If the fluid height in each am is 30 in, determine the gage pressure the person exerts onthe oil by blowing.
