Long-term space missions require reclamation of the oxygen in the carbon dioxide exhaled by the crew. In one method of reclamation, 1.00 mol of carbon dioxide produces 1.00 mol of
oxygen, with 1.00 mol of methane as a by-product. The methane is stored in a tank under pressure and is available to control the attitude of the spacecraft by controlled venting. A single
astronaut exhales 1,08 kg of carbon dioxide each day. If the methane generated in the recycling of three astronauts' respiration during one week of flight is stored in an originally empty 165-L
tank at -45.0°C, what is the final pressure in the tank?

The Earth's atmosphere is composed of about 78 percent nitrogen, 21 percent oxygen, 0.9
percent argon, and 0.1 percent other gasses. To find out why these gasses are "trapped" in the
earth's atmosphere, consider a projectile with mass m that is about to launch vertically upward
from earth.
e. Ignore air resistance, show that the projectile can only escape the magnetie pull of the
earth if it is launched vertically upward with a kinetic energy greater than mgRearth, where
g = 9.80 m/s? and the earth's radius Rearth = 6378 km.
f. Compute the temperature required by a nitrogen molecule (molar mass 28.0 g/mol) and
an oxygen molecule (molar mass 32 g/mol) to achieve the average translational kinetie
energy required to escape earth?
g. Repeat part (b) for the moon, for which g = 1.63 m/s? and Rmoon = 1740 km.
h. Present your conclusion on the atmosphere of earth and moon based on the results from
parts (b) and (c).
A rocket is designed to produce 5 MN of thrust at sea level (assume ambient pressure of 0.1 MPa). The pressure in the combustion chamber is 7 MPa and temperature 2800 K. If the working fluid is assumed to be an ideal gas at room temperature with properties of N2 gas at room temperature (molecular weight 28 kg/kmole). Determine specific impulse, mass flow rate, characteristics velocity and throat diameter.(Take R=8314 J/kmole-K, specific heat ratio 1.4 and nozzle exit pressure as 0.1 MPa)

- Plasma spraying is a process used to coat the surface of a material with a protective layer to prevent material degradation. In a plasma spray process, the protective coating in powder form is injected into a plasma jet. The powder is then heated until the droplets coalesce and are propelled over the surface of the material. Once deposited on the surface of the material, the molten droplets solidify and form a protective coating layer. Consider a plasma spray process using alumina (k = 30 W/m K, ρ = 3970 kg/m³ and cp = 800 J/kg K) powder that is injected into a plasma jet at T∞ = 15,000 ° C and h = 10,000 W/m²·K. Alumina powder is made up of spherical-shaped particles with a mean diameter of 60 μm and a melting point of 2300 °C.Solving, the amount of time it would take for the particles, with an initial temperature of 20 °C, to reach their melting point from the time they are injected into the plasma jet is 5,25x10 -4 s.

MPaarrow_forwardNitrogen, the most abundant gas in the atmosphere (78%), is not necessary in the cardiovascular system and it causes no harm under typical atmospheric conditions. For instance, at standard atmospheric pressure nitrogen can absorb into your skin. This is not an issue until you dive underwater. Henry's Law (chemistry) states that the amount of gas that dissolves in a liquid is directly proportional to the gas' partial pressure. When the partial pressure of nitrogen increases, it will be absorbed into the blood stream. This is not particularly dangerous, although it can lead to a pleasant feeling called "nitrogen narcosis" in some people. The real danger is when the diver resurfaces. When the diver begins to ascend, the partial pressure of nitrogen decreases and nitrogen comes out of solution as small bubbles of gas in the bloodstream. The buildup of nitrogen can be removed from the body by passing nitrogen through the bloodstream and into the lungs where it is exhaled. However, this…arrow_forward
