A great deal of effort, time, and money has been spent in the quest for a so-called perpetual-motion machine, which is defined as a hypothetical machine that operates or produces useful work indefinitely and/or a hypothetical machine that produces mole work or energy than it consumes. Explain, in terms of the first law of thermodynamics, why or why not such a machine is likely to be constructed.
A 75-kg sprinter accelerates from rest to a speed of 11.0 m/s in 5.0 s. (a) Calculate the mechanical work done by the sprinter during this time. (b) Calculate the average power the sprinter must generate. (c) If the sprinter converts food energy to mechanical energy with an efficiency of 25%, at what average rate is he burning Calories? (d) What happens to the other 75% of the food energy being used?
Suppose a woman does 500 J of work and 9500 J of heat transfer occurs into the environment in the process. (a) What is the decrease in her internal energy, assuming no change in temperature or consumption of feed? (That is, there is no other energy transfer.) (b) What is her eficiency?
(a) How much heat transfer is necessary to raise the temperature of a 0.200kg piece of ice from 20.0C to 130C, including the energy needed for phase changes? (b) How much time is required for each stage, assuming a constant 20.0kJ/s rate of heat transfer? (c) Make a graph of temperature versus time for this process.
What is the net work output of a heat engine that follows path ABBA in the figure above, with a straight line from B to D? Why is the work output less than for path ABCDA? Explicitly show how you follow the steps in the Problem Solving Strategies for Thermodynamics.
€69. Integrated Concepts (a) A large electrical power facility produces 1600 MW of “waste heat.” which is dissipated to the environment in cooling towers by warming air flowing through the towers by 500C. What is the necessary flow rate of air in m3/s ? (b) Is your result consistent with the large cooling towers used by many large electrical power plants?
If you add boiling water to a cup at room temperature, what would you expect the final equilibrium temperature of the unit to be? You will need to include 1he surroundings as pan of the system. Consider the zeroth law of thermodynamics.
What is the change in internal energy of a system which does 4.50105J of work while 3.00106J of heat transfer occurs into the system, and 8.00106J of heat transfer occurs to the environment?
Integrated Concepts One 30.0C day the relative humidity is 75.0%, and that evening the temperature drops to 20.0C, well below the dew point. (a) How many grams of water condense from each cubic meter of air? (b) How much heat transfer occurs by this condensation? (c) What temperature increase could this cause in dry air?
