A gas with a density of 1.0 lb/ft3 weighs 4.0 lbf on the Moon, where the acceleration of gravity is 5.47 ft/s2.Determine its weight, in lbf, and volume, in ft3, on Mars, where g = 12.86 ft/s2.
A closed system consists of 0.5 kmol of liquid water and occupies a volume of 4 x10 -3 m3 .Determine the weight of the system, in N, and the average density, in kg/m3 , at location where the acceleration of gravity is g= 9.81 m/s2.
A closed system consisting of 2 lb of a gas undergoes a process during which the relation between pressure and volume is pVn = constant. The process begins with p1 = 35 lbf/in2, V1 = 14 ft3 and ends with p2 = 100 lbf/in2. The value of n = 1.3.Determine the final volume, V2, in ft3, and determine the specific volume at states 1 and 2, in ft3/lb.
