Chapter 17, Problem 35P
(II) A stoppered test tube traps 25.0cm3 of air at a pressure of 1.00 atm and temperature of 18°C. The cylindrically shaped stopper at the test tube’s mouth has a diameter of 1.50cm and will “pop off” the test tube if a net upward force of 10.0N is applied to it. To what temperature would one have to heat the trapped air in order to “pop off” the stopper? Assume the air surrounding the test lube is always at a pressure of 1.00 atm.

An ideal air conditioner keeps the temperature inside a roomat 21°C when the outside temperature is 32°C. If 4.8 kWof power enters a room through the windows in the form ofdirect radiation from the Sun, how much electrical powerwould be saved if the windows were shaded so only 500 Wenters?
A cylinder having a piston restrained by a linearspring (of spring constant 15 kN/m) contains 0.5kg of saturated vapor water at 120°C, as shown in
Fig. P5.55. Heat is transferred to the water, caus-ing the piston to rise. If the piston’s cross-sectional
area is 0.05 m2 and the pressure varies linearly withvolume until a final pressure of 500 kPa is reached,find the final temperature in the cylinder and theheat transfer for the process.
Soon after the Earth formed, heat released by the decay of radioactive elements raised the average internal temperature from 300 to 3000 K, at about which value it remains today. Assuming an average coefficient of volume expansion of 3.0 x 10-5 K -1 , by how much has the radius of the Earth increased since its formation? (Let r = 6400km be the present radius of the Earth.)
