..P15 A horizontal cylinder 10 cm in diameter contains helium
gas at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. A piston
keeps the gas inside a region of the cylinder 20 cm long. (a) If you
quickly pull the piston outward a distance of 12 cm, what is the
approximate temperature of the helium immediately afterward?
What approximations did you make? (b) How much work did
you do, including sign? (Note that you need to consider the
outside air as well as the inside helium in calculating the amount
of work you do.) (c) Immediately after the pull, what force must
you exert on the piston to hold it in position (with the helium
enclosed in a volume that is 20 + 12 = 32 cm long)? (d) You
wait while the helium slowly returns to room temperature,
maintaining the piston at its current location. After this wait,
what force must you exert to hold the piston in position?
(e) Next, you very slowly allow the piston to move back into
the cylinder, stopping when the region of helium gas is 25 cm
long.…

- The clear plastic bottles used for carbonated beverages (sometimes also called “soda,” “pop,” or “soda pop”) are made from poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET). The “fizz” in pop results from dissolved carbon dioxide (CO2); because PET is permeable to CO2, pop stored in PET bottles will eventually go “flat” (i.e., lose its fizz). A 20-oz. bottle of pop has a CO2 pressure of about 570 kPa inside the bottle, and the CO2 pressure outside the bottle is 7 kPa. Assuming conditions of steady-state, calculate the diffusion flux in cm3 at STP/cm2.s of CO2 through the wall of the bottle. The Permeability Constant of the PET bottle is 0.23 x 10^-13 cm3@STP.cm/cm2.s.Pa. Note: assume that each bottle has a surface area of 500 cm2 and a wall thickness of 0.07 cm.
