- Please solve this question in thermodynamicsarrow_forwardWhat is dynamics and how does dynamics affect our daily life?arrow_forwardAir is contained in a piston cylinder arrangement as shown in Fig. The piston can be assumed to be massless, frictionless, and perfectly insulated. 10 kg of dry ice (solid CO2) is placed on top of the piston. The initial conditions for air inside the cylinder are Pı=121 kPa, Tı= 300 K. Dry ice sublimates gradually, and its mass reduces to 5 kg. Ambient air is always at room temperature (27°C) and atmospheric pressure. (Given: R=287 J/kg ·K, g = 9.8 m/s², Cp/Cy for air = 1.4; Neglect all heat transfer to the dry ice block.) a) Assuming the cylinder to be perfectly insulated, calculate the specific work done for the process. b) Assuming the cylinder to be perfectly conducting, what is the heat required per unit mass of air to complete the process? c) Plot the processes described in (a) and (b) together on a P- v diagram. From this plot, which process appears to have more work? Explain.arrow_forward
- What is the difference between the classical and the statistical approaches to thermodynamics?arrow_forwardDuring a non-flow thermodynamic process(1-2) executed by a perfect gas, the heat interaction is equal to the work interaction (Q1-2 = W1-2) when the process is A Isentropic B Polytropic C Isothermal D Adiabaticarrow_forwardDeduce for the case of a perfect gas the relationship between the gas constant and the specific heats at constant pressure and at constant volume. The specific heat at constant pressure (cp) and the gas constant (R) of a perfect gas are 1.033 kJ/kg K and 108.2 J/kg K respectively. Find the ratio of specific heat at constant pressure to that at constant volume.arrow_forward
- The volume and temperature of air (assumned to be an ideal gas) in a closed vessel is 2.87 m3 and 300 K, respectively. The gauge pressure indicated by a manometer fitted to the wall of the vessel is 0.5 bar. If the gas constant of air is R= 287 J/kgK %3D and the atmospheric pressure is 1 bar, the mass of air (in kg) in the vessel isarrow_forwardThe initial state of 1.00 mol of a dilute gas is P1 = 3.00 atm, V1 = 1.00 L, and Eint 1 = 456 J and its final state is P2 = 2.00 atm, V2 = 3.00 L, and Eint2 = 912 J. The gas is first cooled at constant volume until it reaches its final pressure. It is then allowed to expand at constant pressure until it reaches its final volume. (a) Illustrate this process on a PV diagram and calculate the work done by the gas. (b) Find the heat absorbed by the gas during this process.arrow_forwardThermodynamics Explain the relationships between systems constants for a perfect gas.arrow_forward
