pv'3= constant, until the pressure is 6.6. bar. Calculate the heat flow to or from the
cylinder walls, (i) When the gas is ethane (molecular weight 30), which has cp

The world's most active volcanoes, such as the Kilauea volcano in Hawaii, can disgorge about 5.00 X 105 m3 of 1100°C lava
per day. What is the rate of heat transfer (in MW) out of the earth by convection, if this lava has a density of 2800 kg/m3 and
eventually cools to 25°C? Assume that the specific heat of lava is the same as that of granite.
