Chapter 7, Problem 1RQ
List five common automotive chemicals or products that may be considered hazardous materials.
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The list of five common automotive products or chemicals that are considered as hazardous materials.
Explanation of Solution
The materials that are harmful and danger to environment is known as hazardous materials. Conversely, the materials that are used in the shop (automotive service center) are not considered as hazardous until they are used and ready for disposal.
The list of five common automotive products or chemicals that are considered as hazardous materials are listed below:
- Asbestos- used as friction material in brake and clutch.
- Used oils- petroleum based oils.
- Coolants- coolants that contains anti-freezing elements.
- Lead-acid batteries.
- Spilled fuel

Refrigerant-134a enters a compressor at 180 kPa as a saturated vapor with a flow rate of 0.35 m3/min and leaves at 900 kPa. The power supplied to the refrigerant during the compression process is 2.35 kW. What is the temperature of R-134a at the exit of the compressor?
The temperature of R-134a at the exit of the compressor is °C.
Air enters the compressor of a gas-turbine plant at ambient conditions of 100 kPa and 25°C with a low velocity and exits at 1 MPa and 347°C with a velocity of 90 m/s. The compressor is cooled at a rate of 1500 kJ/min, and the power input to the compressor is 250 kW. Determine the mass flow rate of air through the compressor. The inlet and exit enthalpies of air are 298.2 kJ/kg and 628.07 kJ/kg.
The mass flow rate of air is kg/s.
Consider a 1000-W iron whose base plate is made of 0.5-cm-thick aluminum alloy 2024-T6 (ρ = 2770 kg/m3 and cp = 875 J/kg·°C). The base plate has a surface area of 0.03 m2. Initially, the iron is in thermal equilibrium with the ambient air at 22°C. Assuming 90 percent of the heat generated in the resistance wires is transferred to the plate, determine the minimum time needed for the plate temperature to reach 240°C.
The minimum time needed for the plate temperature to reach 240°C is s.

- A 4-m × 5-m × 6-m room is to be heated by a baseboard resistance heater. It is desired that the resistance heater be able to raise the air temperature in the room from 5 to 25°C within 10 min. Assuming no heat losses from the room and an atmospheric pressure of 100 kPa, determine the required power of the resistance heater. Assume constant specific heats at room temperature. The properties of air are R = 0.287 kJ/kg·K and cv = 0.718 kJ/kg·K (Table A-2a). The required power of the resistance heater is kW.arrow_forwardI need solve without AI and chatgptarrow_forwardAn ordinary egg can be approximated as a 5.5-cm-diameter sphere.
