1- A rigid tank which acts as a perfect heat insulator and which has a negligible heat capacity is divided into two unequal parts A and B by a partition. Different amounts of the same ideal gas are contained in the two parts of the tank. The initial conditions of temperature T, pressure P, and total volume V are known for both parts of the tank. Find expressions for the equilibrium temperature T and pressure P reached after removal of the partition. Assume that C, the molar heat capacity of the gas, is constant and that the process is adiabatic.

While the electric current (i) passes through the circuit part in the figure, the power consumed in the resistor of R1=5Ω is 20 Watt. Accordingly, if it is immersed in 100 ml of distilled water at 22°C in an insulated glass with a resistance of R2=7Ω, after how many minutes will the temperature of the water rise to 25°C?
For the statements in them, put T if they are true and F if they are false. b) ( ) An ideal diatomic gas loses energy in the form of heat Q. Since cp > cv, we can state that the gas loses less internal energy if the process is at constant volume thanin a process under constant pressure.c) ( ) Two gases A and B, of equal mass, are at the same temperature. the molar mass of gas A is greater than the molar mass of gas B. In this case, it is correct to state that the energy internal gas B is greater than that of gas A.d) ( ) For a diatomic gas with molecular rotation cv = (5/2)R and cp = (7/2)R. for highs At temperatures the atoms of the gas molecules begin to vibrate.

In this case, we can say that the variation of energy internal gas along the straight path ac is…
I just need the last problem at the bottom of the picture. When I submit the last problem by itself my question gets rejected because the value of the mass is required so I assume that you are supposed to refer to the previous problems to see that M=100Nm.
in a turbine gas expands such that the process is isentropic and the gas pressure decreases from 900kPa to 200kPa. Initial temperature of the gas is measured as 375°C. Determine the temperature of the gas after expansion. Assume the specific heat of gas as γ= 1.4. Determine the temperature of the gas after expansion if it were to be assumed specific heat of gas γ=1.3. Determine the % error in Temperature due to the wrong assumption of specific heat ratio.
Oxygen used in oxy-acetylene metal cutting was stored in a tank (empty tank weight is 20lb) whose volume is 45ft3. Initially, the gauge pressure reading of the tank was 30psi. After usage, the pressure reading falls to 15psi. Determine the final weight (lb) of the tank after the operation if the temperature in the tank remains constant at 75 degrees F.
