2. A piston-cylinder device contains 2.4 kg of nitrogen initially at 120 kPa and 27°C. The nitrogen is now compressed slowly in a polytropic process during which PV1.3 = constant until the volume is reduced by one-half. Determine the work done and the heat transfer for this process.
1. 1.25 m³ of saturated liquid water at 225°C is expanded isothermally in a closed system until its quality is 75 percent. Determine the total work produced by this expansion, in kJ.
An undamped single-degree-of-freedom system is subjected to dynamic excitation as shown in Figure 1.• System properties: m = 1, c = 0, k = (6π)2.• Force excitation: p(t) = posin(ωt) where po = 9 and ω = 2π.• Initial conditions: u(t = 0) = 0 and ̇u(t = 0) = 0.Please, complete Parts (a) through (d) using any computational tool of your preference. The preferred toolis MATLAB. Print and turn in a single pdf file that will include your code/calculations and your plots.(a) Generate the solution using a linear interpolation of the load over each time step (note that hereyou can use the undamped coefficients). Plot the displacement response for the first 4 seconds andcompare to the exact closed form solution. Repeat using the following time step sizes, ∆t = 0.01,0.05, 0.15, 0.20 seconds. Include the closed form solution and the solutions for different ∆t values in asingle plot. Please, provide your observations by comparing the closed form solution with the solutionsderived using the four…
