Helium expands polytropically through a gas turbine according to the process PV^1.419 = C. If the turbine produces 27.09 MW,. determine the heat transferred in kJ/s.
Please explain as much as possible such as specific energy input and output If 19.5 MJ can be produced by burning 0.5 kg of a certain fuel, and if an engine has a fuel consumption of 240 kg/MW·h, what is the efficiency of the engine?
2.1 Taking the recent World Energy Council and United Nations resource-base figures forthe total amount of fossil energy in the ground worldwide as 356,000 quads, how longwill it take to exhaust our fossil resources, assuming that we can recover one-half of theresource base and that usage grows at 3% per year? The world currently consumes about400 quads of primary energy per year, of which 85% is from fossil sources. (Hint: youwill need to account for the compounding, exponential growth effect of the 3% per yearincrease in consumption.)

When gasoline burns in an automobile engine, the heat released (325 J) causes the products CO₂ and H₂O to expand, which pushes the pistons outward. Excess heat is removed by the car's cooling system. If the work associated with the expanding gases is equal to 451 J, how much is the change in internal energy of the gases? How much is the change in internal energy of the piston?
