The barometer of a mountain hiker reads 729.66 mbars at the beginning of a hiking trip and 644.42 mbars at the end. Neglecting the effect of altitude on local gravitational acceleration, determine the vertical distance (meters) climbed. Assume an average air density of 1.20 kg/m3. (Use 2 decimal places for the final answer.)
6 kg of a compressible gas in a piston-cylinder loses 193 kJ towards the environment during an isobaric process. Determine the variation in internal energy (U2-U1) in kJ to 1 decimal place. Take the gas specific heat at constant pressure equal to cp=1.1 kJ/(kg K) and the specific heat at constant volume equal to cv=0.8 kJ/(kg K).

- According to Newton’s law of cooling, the rate at which the temperature of an object changes is proportional to the difference between its temperature and that of its surroundings. A cup of coffee at 200◦ in a room of temperature 70◦ is stirred continually and reaches 100◦ after 10 min. At what time was it at 120◦?arrow_forwardHumans are most comfortable when the temperature is between 65°F and 75°F. Express these temperature limits in °C. Convert the size of this temperature range (10°F) to K, °C, and R. Is there any difference in the size of this range as measured in relative or absolute units?arrow_forwardDuring an experimental test, gas in a cylinder undergoes an expansion and moves a piston. Pressure and volume data taken during the test is given in the table below. Find the thermodynamic work performed by the gas in the cylinder in the process of expanding from a volume of 0.50 liters to 1.20 liters. Use all of the data in the table in calculating the work.

- 2.5 liters of water at 60 degree Celsius is placed in a freezer. What amount of mass in kilograms has not yet transformed into solid ice if only 80 percent of the total Heat was removed?arrow_forwardSolve correctlyarrow_forwardIn a thermodynamic experiment, a given amount of air is heated at constant pressure from 1.7 m3, 25 0C and 97 kPa to 356 0C. It is then cooled at constant volume back to its initial temperature. Calculate the specific heat transfer in the cooling process placing the correct unit in SI and to 1 decimal place. Take Specific heat at constant pressure and constant volume for air as 1.006 kJ/kg K and 0.717 kJ/kg K respectively.arrow_forward
- A compressor requires a mechanical work rate equal to 77 kW for increasing the pressure of 40 kg/min of air from 178 kPa to 685 kPa. The inlet temperature of air is 332 K and thermal dissipation towards the environment amounts to 6 kW. Take the air specific heat constant cp=1.1 kJ/(kg K). If kinetic and potential energy differences can be neglected, determine the air temperature at outlet in K to 1 decimal place.arrow_forwardThe pressure from water mains located at street level may be insufficient for delivering water to the upper floors of tall buildings. In such a case, water may be pumped up to a tank that feeds water to the building by gravity. For an open storage tank atop a 300-ft-tall building, determine the pressure, in lbf/in² , at the bottom of the tank when filled to a depth of 20 ft. The density of water is 62.2 lb/ft³, g = 32.0 ft/s2 , and the local atmospheric pressure is 14.7 lbf/in²arrow_forwardI need help with both of these. I think I may have miscalculated for both of these problems.arrow_forward
