Answer:

Answer and Explanation:

SPECIFIC HEAT :

  • Specific heat is denoted by c_v
  • It is the heat required for increasing the temperature of a substance which has mass of 1 kg.
  • Its SI unit is joule/kelvin
  • It is physical property
  • It can be calculated by c_v=(Q)/(m\Delta T), here Q is heat energy m is mass of gas and \Delta T  is change in temperature.

The pressure in an automobile tire depends on thetemperature of the air in the tire. When the air temperature is25°C, the pressure gage reads 210 kPa. If the volume of the tire is 0.025 m3, determine the pressure rise in the tire whenthe air temperature in the tire rises to 50°C. Also, determinethe amount of air that must be bled off to restore pressure toits original value at this temperature. Assume the atmosphericpressure to be 100 kPa.

Answers

Answer:

The pressure rise in the tire when the air temperature in the tire rises to 50°C is 337.43 KPa.

The amount of air that must be bled off to restore pressure 0.007 Kg

Explanation:

Knowing

T1 = 25°C = 298 K

T2 = 50°C = 323 K

volume of the tire = V = 0.025 m^(3)

P = 210 kPa (gage)

Pabs = 210 + 101 = 311 KPa

Before the temperature rise

P1 V1 = m1 R1 T1

m1 = (P1 V1)/(R1 T1) = (310 * 10^(3) * 0.25 )/(287 - 298) = 0.091 Kg\n \n

After the temperature rise

P2 = (m2 * R * T2)/(V2) = (0.091 *287*323 )/(0.025) = 337.43 KPa

after bleeding the pressure and the volume returns  to its first value

P1 = P2 and V1 = V2

then

(m2 * R * T2)/(V) = (m1 * R * T1)/(V)

m2 = (m1*T1)/(T2)

m2 = (0.091*298)/(332) = 0.084 Kg\n\n

mbleed = m1 - m2 --> mbleed = 0.91 - 0.84 = 0.007 Kg

P2 = 337.43 KPa

mbleed = 0.007 Kg

Yield and tensile strengths and modulus of elasticity . with increasing temperature. (increase/decrease/independent)

Answers

Answer:

Yield strength, tensile strength decreases with increasing temperature and modulus of elasticity decreases with increasing in temperature.

Explanation:

The modulus of elasticity of a material is theoretically a function of the shape of curve plotted between the potential energy stored in the material as it is loaded versus the inter atomic distance in the material. The temperature distrots the molecular structure of the metal and hence it has an effect on the modulus of elasticity of a material.

Mathematically we can write,

E(t)=E_o[1-a(T)/(T_m)]

where,

E(t) is the modulus of elasticity at any temperature 'T'

E_o is the modulus of elasticity at absolute zero.

T_(m) is the mean melting point of the material

Hence we can see that with increasing temperature modulus of elasticity decreases.

In the case of yield strength and the tensile strength as we know that heating causes softening of a material thus we can physically conclude that in general the strength of the material decreases at elevated temperatures.

One piece of evidence that supports the Theory of Plate Tectonics is the discovery of what in both South America and Africa? The ancient atmosphere in both places was identical. The rates of weathering of rock are similar. Fossil remains of the same land-dwelling animal. Plants on both continents have similar flowers.

Answers

Answer: Fossil remains of the same land-dwelling animal.

Explanation: Fossil remains which were found to belong to same land dwelling animals, in South America and Africa was used as evidence to help support the theory of Tectonics plates, what this theory simply means is that the whole continents of earth were once fused together until a tectonic plate caused it’s division. Since same remains were found in Africa and South America this shows that both continents were once fused together.

Answer:

Fossil remains of the same land-dwelling animal

Explanation:

Fossil remains tell us where the animals once lived and how by the movement of plate spearated their remaind that was burried thousands of years ago.

Propane (C3H8) burns completely with 150% of theoretical air entering at 74°F, 1 atm, 50% relative humidity. The dry air component can be modeled as 21% O2 and 79% N2 on a molar basis. The combustion products leave at 1 atm. Determine the mole fraction of water in the products, in lbmol(water)/lbmol(products).

Answers

Answer:

y=0.12 lbmol(water)/lbmol(products)

Explanation:

First we find the humidity of air. Using humidity tables and the temperature we find that is 0.01 g water/L air.

Now we set the equation assuming dry air:

C_(3)H_(8)+7.5(O_(2)+3.76N_(2)) \longrightarrow 3CO_(2)+4H_(2)O+2.5O_(2)+28.2N_(2)

With this equation we have almost all moles that exit the reactor, we are just missing the initial moles of water due to the humidity. So we proceed to calculate it with the ideal gas law:

PV=nRT

Vair=867.7L

With the volume and the fraction of water, we can calculate the mass of water:

0.01 * 867.7=8.677 g of water

Now we calculate the moles of water:

8.677 g / 18 g/mol = 0.48 moles of water

Now we can calculate the total moles of water in the exit of the reactor:

0.48 + 4 = 4.48 moles of water

And finally we just need to sum all moles at the exit of the reactor and divide:

3 moles of CO2 + 2.5 moles of O2+ 4.48 moles of H2O + 28.2 moles of N2

And we have 38.18 moles in total, then:

4.48/38.18=y=0.12 moles of water/moles of products

As the relation moles/moles is equal to lb-moles/lb-moles, we have our fina result:

y=0.12 lbmol(water)/lbmol(products)

For some transformation having kinetics that obey the Avrami equation (Equation 10.17), the parameter n is known to have a value of 2.1. If, after 146 s, the reaction is 50% complete, how long (total time) will it take the transformation to go to 86% completion?

Answers

Answer:

t = 25.10 sec

Explanation:

we know that Avrami equation

Y = 1 - e^(-kt^n)

here Y is percentage of completion  of reaction = 50%

t  is duration of reaction = 146 sec

so,

0.50 = 1 - e^(-k^146^2.1)

0.50 = e^(-k306.6)

taking natural log on both side

ln(0.5) = -k(306.6)

k = 2.26* 10^(-3)

for 86 % completion

0.86 = 1 - e^{-2.26* 10^(-3) * t^(2.1)}

e^{-2.26* 10^(-3) * t^(2.1)} = 0.14

-2.26* 10^(-3) * t^(2.1) = ln(0.14)

t^(2.1) = 869.96

t = 25.10 sec
