Chapter 1.7, Problem 21P

A)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The change in internal energy (ΔU) of the steam has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The change in internal energy (ΔU) of the steam:

ΔU=M(U^2U^1)

Here, mass of the steam is M.

B)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The work done (WE) by the steam on the surroundings has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Calculate the work done (WE) by the steam on the surroundings.

WE=V1V2PdV=P(V2V1)=MP(V^2V^1)

Here, constant pressure is P, initial and final volume is V1andV2 respectively.

Since, the external pressure is constant P2=P.

Substitute P2 for P and rewrite the equation of work done by the steam

WE=MP2(V^2V^1)

C)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Describe the two example of machine that is converting the steam force into useful work.

Concept introduction:

Example of machine that is converting the steam force into useful work as follows:

  1. 1. Steam engine
  2. 2. Steam turbine
