Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 5ICA
ICA 10-5
The worksheet shown here was designed to calculate the total pressure felt by an object submerged in a fluid as a function of the depth to which the object is submerged. The user will enter the surface pressure (in units of atmospheres), specific gravity of the fluid, and the gravity of the planet (in units of meters per second squared). All user input is shown in red. The worksheet will calculate the surface pressure in units of pascals, the density of the fluid in kilograms per cubic meter, and depth in units of feet. All conversions are shown in orange. Finally, the worksheet will calculate the total pressure in units of atmospheres.
- a. What formula should be typed in cell C8 to convert the surface pressure in cell C4 from atmospheres to pascals?
- b. What formula should be typed in cell C9 to determine the density in units of kilograms per cubic meter?
- c. What formula should be typed into cell B12 that can then be copied clown column B to convert the depth from units of feet to units of meters?
- d. What formula should be typed into cell C12 that can then be copied down column C to calculate the total pressure in units of atmospheres?

A piston–cylinder device contains 50 kg of water at 250 kPa and 25°C. The cross-sectional area of the piston is 0.1 m2. Heat is now transferred to the water, causing part of it to evaporate and expand. When the volume reaches 0.26 m3, the piston reaches a linear spring whose spring constant is 100 kN/m. More heat is transferred to the water until the piston rises 20 cm more.

Determine the work done during this process.
The work done during this process is kJ.
A 4-m × 5-m × 7-m room is heated by the radiator of a steam-heating system. The steam radiator transfers heat at a rate of 10,000 kJ/h, and a 100-W fan is used to distribute the warm air in the room. The rate of heat loss from the room is estimated to be about 5000 kJ/h. If the initial temperature of the room air is 10°C, determine how long it will take for the air temperature to rise to 25°C. Assume constant specific heats at room temperature. The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kPa·m3/kg·K (Table A-1). Also, cv = 0.718 kJ/kg·K for air at room temperature (Table A-2).
Steam enters the radiator system through an inlet outside the room and leaves the system through an outlet on the same side of the room. The fan is labeled as W sub p w. The heat is given off by the whole system consisting of room, radiator and fan at the rate of 5000 kilojoules per hour.
