10. Methane enters a compressor at 14 psia with a very low velocity and is compressed to 55 psia.
The entering methane has a density of 0.04 lb /ft. The methane leaves the compressor with a
velocity of 250 fps. The flow rate is 0.38 lb/s. Assuming a quasi-equilibrium process in which
pu133=constant, calculate the work done on the methane in hp.
