1. A room is filled with saturated steam at 100°C. Now a 5-kg bowling ball at 25°C is brought to the room. Heat is transferred to the ball from the steam, and the temperature of the ball rises to 100°C while some steam condenses on the ball as it loses heat (but it still remains at 100°C). The specific heat of the ball can be taken to be 1.8 kJ/kg · C. Solve for the mass of steam that condensed during this process. (3 DECIMAL IN FINAL ANSWER PLS)
A piston-cylinder device initially contains CO2 at 200 kPa and 400°C and the total enclosed volume is 300 litres. Due to heat loss, the piston moves downwards to a position where it sits on a pair of stoppers and its final enclosed volume is 150 litres. Further heat loss leads to the pressure being reduced to 160kPa. Workout 1) the final temperature, 2) the total work done by CO2 and 3) the total heat transferred to CO2. Also make some comments on the result of heat. 4) Create a schematic p-v diagram of the process The following assumptions are to be made: CO2 is a perfect gas and its molecular mass is 44kg/kmol. The ratio of specific heat capacities, γ (gamma) is 1.3 The volume occupied by the stoppers is to be ignored. There is no leakage in the system There is no friction between the cylinder and piston walls and the piston moved slowly at the same speed therefore, no acceleration. For the conversion from Celsius to Kelvin, use 273 Use 8314.5 J/kmol.K for the universal gas constant

Q2. The majority of houses in İzmir is equipped with air-conditioners for keeping the inside temperature of houses at comfortable levels during hot summer days. Consider a hot summer day, the outdoor temperature is 42 °C, an air-conditioner runs to keep a room at 22 °C. The room is not well-insulated and therefore absorbs heat through its walls at a rate of 400 kJ/min. There are also electronic equipments in the room generating 600 W of heat. The cooling fluid inside the air-conditioner, DuPont Freon 12 enters into the compressor as a saturated vapor at 362 kPa and leaves it at 1000 kPa and 60 °C.

What is the minimum power input to the compressor for the same refrigeration process.
