Consider an engine that has a piston in the cylinder that can ignore friction. The bore (diameter) of the piston is 100mm. 3 MPa of gas in the engine cylinder expanded and the final pressure became 0.1 MPa. At this time, the moving distance of the piston is 80mm, and it is said to expand in a process indicated by a straight line on the P-V diagram. Find the day of expansion (kJ) in this process.arrow_forward

The unit consists of a bowl and a base that rotates the bowl around a stationary mixing paddle. The walls of the bowl contain an unknown mixture that absorbs heat from the ice cream. The bowl must be frozen (-20°C) before use. Unfortunately, your friends have lost the instructions and can't remember how long to operate the unit. You tell them not to worry since you have mastered energy conservation problems and can calculate the amount of time required to freeze the ice cream. Looking at the box, you find the specifications for the unit: a) Inner surface area of freezing bowl: 600 cm2; b) Heat transfer coefficient for bowl:h = 0.025 J / (cm2 s .°C); c) Power required to stir the bowl (100% efficiency):25 W; d) Amount of ice cream mixture added: 1 kg; e) The rate of heat transfer is between the bowl and the milk.

Initially the piston face is at x1, and the spring exerts no force on the piston. As a result of heat transfer, the gas expands, raising the piston until it hits the stops. At this point the piston face is located at x2, and the heat transfer ceases. The force exerted by the spring on the piston as the gas expands varies linearly with x according to ???????=?? . Friction between the piston and the cylinder wall can be neglected. The acceleration due to gravity is ?=9.806 ?/?2. Other information is given on thefigure.a. What is the initial pressure of the gas, in kPa?b. Determine the work done by the gas on the piston, in J.c.
