- If a gas is compressed isothermally, which of the following statements is true? (a) Energy is transferred into the gas by heat. (b) No work is done on the gas. (c) The temperature of the gas increases. (d) The internal energy of the gas remains constant. (e) None of those statements is true.arrow_forwardA heat pump used for heating shown in Figure P18.25 is essentially an air conditioner installed backward. It extracts energy from colder air outside and deposits it in a warmer room. Suppose the ratio of the actual energy entering the room to the work done by the devices motor is 10.0% of the theoretical maximum ratio. Determine the energy entering the room per joule of work done by the motor given that the inside temperature is 20.0C and the outside temperature is 5.00C.

(b) How much work in joules must be done for a heat transfer of 4186 kJ from the cold environment? (c) What is the cost of doing this if the work costs 10.0 cents per 3.60106J (a kilowatthour)? (d) How many kJ of heat transfer occurs into the warm environment? (e) Discuss what type of refrigerator might operate between these temperatures.arrow_forward
- Q - W=ΔU The internal energy of a system is initially 24 J. The system does 25 J of work. What is the system's final internal energy when a total of 35 J of energy is added to the system by heat?arrow_forwardAn air-filled cylinder with a movable piston has a heat reservoir in con- tact with it. The heat reservoir transfers 850 J of energy into the cylin- der. Due to the energy transfer, the piston does 437 J of work on the environment. What is the change in internal energy of the system?

- A compressor draws in 0.5 kgm/s of air with 7 m/s speed, 100 kPa pressure, and 0.95 m3/kgm. The air leaves at 5 m/s, 700 kPa and 0.19 m/kgm. The internal energy of the air leaving is 90 kJ/kgm greater than that of the air entering. The coolant absorbs heat from the air at the rate of 58 kW. Determine the work in kW.arrow_forwardA heat engine under development is expected to transfer heat from reservoir A to reservoir B. Which is a requirement for the two reservoirs? A) The temperature of reservoir A must be greater than the temperature of reservoir B. B) The temperature of reservoir A must be equal to the temperature of reservoir B. C) The internal energy of reservoir A must be greater than the internal energy of reservoir B. D) internal energy of reservoir A must equal the internal energy of reservoir B.arrow_forwardAn iron plate is held against an iron wheel so that a sliding frictional force of 50.

(a) Calculate the rate at which mechanical energy is converted to internal energy. (b) The plate and the wheel have masses of 5.0 kg each, and each receives 50% of the internal energy. If the system is run as described for 10. s and each object is then allowed to reach a uniform internal temperature, what is the resultant temperature increase?arrow_forward

During the compression, the gas releases 128 J of heat. What is the change in internal energy of the gas?arrow_forwardA power plant taps steam superheated by geothermal energy to 558 K (the temperature of the hot reservoir) and uses the steam to do work in turning the turbine of an electric generator. The steam is then converted back into water in a condenser at 305 K (the temperature of the cold reservoir), after which the water is pumped back down into the earth where it is heated again. The output power (work per unit time) of the plant is 125 megawatts. Determine (a) the maximum efficiency (as a decimal number between zero and one) at which this plant can operate and (b) the minimum amount of rejected heat that must be removed from the condenser every twenty-four hours.arrow_forward
