Unit two The first law of thermodynamic aS Work Done = F *dx dw =P. dy «The total work done developed by the gas to move the piston from (1) to (2) dias te Wiz = fy Pav -Q) «the area under the curve is used to calculate the work done Ex(2):In a cyclic process, heat transfers are + 14.7 kJ, — 25.2 kJ, — 3.56 kJ and + 31.5 kJ. What is the network for this cyclic process? Ex (3): A slow chemical reaction takes place in a fluid at the constant pressure of 0.1MPa. The fluid is surrounded by a perfect heat insulator during the reaction which begins at state 1 and ends at state 2, The insulation is then removed and 105 KJ of heat flow to the surroundings as the fluid goes to state 3, The following data are observed for the fluid at states 1, 2 and 3. State v(m) t °C) 10.003 20 20.3370 3.0.06 20 For the fluid system, calculate E2 and E3, if E1 = 0 Ex(3); During one cycle the working fluid in an engine engages in two work interactions: 15 kJ to the fluid and 44 kJ from the fluid, and three heat interactions, two of which are known: 75 kJ to the fluid and 40 kJ from the fluid. Evaluate the magnitude and direction of the third heat transfer. Ex(4): A domestic refrigerator is loaded with food and the door closed. During a certain period the machine consumes 1 kWh of energy and the internal energy of the system drops by 5000 kJ. Find the net heat transfer for the system. Ex(5): 1.5 kg of liquid having a constant specific heat of 2.5 kJ/kg K is stirred in a well-insulated chamber causing the temperature to rise by 15°C. Find AE and W for the process. Unit two The first law of thermodynamic Ex(6): The same liquid as in Ex(5) is stirred in a conducting chamber. During the process 1.7 kJ of heat are transferred from the liquid to the surroundings, while the temperature of the liquid is rising to 15°C. Find AE and W for the process. Ex(7): A system composed of 2 kg of the above fluid expands in a frictionless piston and cylinder machine from an initial state of IMPa, 100°C to a final temperature of 30°C. If there is no heat transfer, find the network for the process. Ex(8): A mixture of gases expands at constant pressure from 1MPa, 0.03 m? to 0.06 m? with 84 kJ positive heat transfer. There is no work other than that done on a piston. Find DE for the gaseous mixture. Ex(9):A man climbs on to a wall that is 3.6m high and gains 2268J ofpotential energy. What is the mass of the man? Ex(10): A 800g ball is pulled up a slope as shown in the diagram. Calculate the potential energy it gains. Ex(11): A rocket of mass 1.5x104kg accelerates at 220m/s2 for 29s from aninitial speed of 5200m/s. (a) How fast will be rocket be travelling after the 29s? (b) How much Kinetic Energy has the rocket gained? Ex (12): A lump of ice falls from an airplane as it comes in to land. If the ice hits the ground with a vertical speed of 85m/s, what was the height of the plane when the ice fell off? (Assume that friction can be ignored.)
