- One mole of neon gas is heated from 300. K to 420. K at constant pressure. Calculate (a) the energy Q transferred to the gas, (b) the change in the internal energy of the gas, and (c) the work done on the gas. Note that neon has a molar specific heat of c = 20.79 J/mol K for a constant-pressure process.arrow_forwardIn some countries, liquid nitrogen is used on dairy trucks instead of mechanical refrigerators. A 3.00-hour delivery trip requires 200 L of liquid nitrogen, which has a density at 808kg/m3. (a) Calculate the heat transfer necessary to evaporate this amount of liquid nitrogen and raise its temperature to 300C. (Use cp and assume it is constant over the temperature range.) This value is the amount of cooling the liquid nitrogen supplies. (b) What is this heat transfer rate in kilowatthours? (c) Compare the amount of cooling obtained from melting an identical mass at 0C ice with that from evaporating the liquid nitrogen.arrow_forward(a) People often think of humid air as "heavy." Compare the densities of air with 0% relative humidity and 100% relative humidity when both are at 1 atm and 30 . Assume that the dry air is an ideal gas composed of molecules with a molar mass of 29.0 g/mol and the moist air is the same gas mixed with water vapor. (b) As discussed in the chapter on the applications of Newton's laws, the air resistance felt by projectiles such as baseballs and golf balls is approximately FD=CpAv2/2 , where p is the mass density of the air, A is the cross-sectional area of the projectile, and C is the projectile's drag coefficient. For a fixed air pressure, describe qualitatively how the range of a projectile changes with the relative humidity. (c) When a thunderstorm is coming, usually the humidity is high and the air pressure is low. Do those conditions give an advantage or disadvantage to home-run hitters?arrow_forward
- Unreasonable Results (a) How many moles per cubic meter of an ideal gas are there at a pressure of 1.001014N/m2 and at 0C ? (b) What is unreasonable about this result? (c) Which premise or assumption is responsible?arrow_forwardA hand—driven tire pump has a piston with a 2.50cm diameter and a maximum stroke of 30.0 cm. (a) How much work do you do in one stroke if the average gauge pressure is 2.40105N/m2 (about 35 psi)? (b) What average force do you exert on the piston, neglecting friction and gravitational force?arrow_forwardOne mole of neon gas is heated from 300. K to 420. K at constant pressure. Calculate (a) the energy Q transferred to the gas, (b) the change in the internal energy of the gas, and (c) the work done on the gas. Note that neon has a molar specific heat of c = 20.79 J/mol K for a constant-pressure process.arrow_forward
- Atmospheric pressure amp Mt. Everest is 3.30104N/m2. (a) What is the partial pressure of oxygen there if it is 20.9% at me air? (b) What percent oxygen should a mountain climber breathe so that its partial pressure is the same as at sea level, where atmospheric pressure is 1.01105N/m2 ? (c) One of the most severe problems for those climbing very high mountains is the extreme drying of breathing passages. Why does this drying occur?arrow_forwardWater in an electric teakettle is boiling. The power absorbed by the water is 1.00 kW. Assuming the pressure of vapor in the kettle equals atmospheric pressure, determine the speed of effusion of vapor from the kettles spout if the spout has a cross-sectional area of 2.00 cm2. Model the steam as an ideal gas.arrow_forward€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?arrow_forward
- A cylinder containing three moles of nitrogen gas is heated at a constant pressure of 2 atm. The temperature of the gas changes from 300 K to 350 K as a result of the expansion. Find work done (a) on gas, and (b) by the gas by using van der Waals equation of state instead of ideal gas law.arrow_forwardConstruct Your Own Problem Consider a new model of commercial airplane having its brakes tested as a part of the initial flight permission procedure. The airplane is brought to takeoff speed and then stopped with the brakes alone. Construct a problem in which you calculate the temperature increase of the brakes during this process. You may assume most of the kinetic energy of the airplane is converted to thermal energy in the brakes and surrounding materials, and that little escapes. Note that the brakes are expected to become so hot in this procedure that they ignite and, in order to pass the test, the airplane must be able to withstand the fire for some time without a general conflagration.arrow_forwardUsing Table 15.4, verify the contention that if you toss 100 coins each second, you can expect to get 100 heads or 100 tails once in 21022 years; calculate the time to twodigit accuracy.arrow_forward
