The attached figure shows a gas contained in a vertical piston– cylinder assembly, where D = 10 cm. A vertical shaft whose cross-sectional area is 0.8 cm2 is attached to the top of the piston. The total mass of the piston and shaft is 25 kg. While the gas is slowly heated, the internal energy of the gas increases by 0.1 kJ, the potential energy of the piston–shaft combination increases by 0.2 kJ, and a force of F = 1668 N is exerted on the shaft as shown in the figure. The piston and cylinder are poor conductors, and friction between them is negligible.The local atmospheric pressure is 1 bar and g = 9.81 m/s2. (Patm = 1 bar)
Determine, (a) the work done by the shaft, (b) the work done in displacing the atmosphere, and (c) the heat transfer to the gas, all in kJ.

A meter is used to measure the electrical energy in kWh consumed by both pumps over a six-hour period. Both pumps consume the same kWh of electrical energy over the pumping period. If we know that pump #1 has an efficiency of 40% and pump #2 has an efficiency of 80%, what can we say about the volume of water moved by each pump? Assume both pumps use the same piping system, so hydraulic frictional losses are the same for both pumps. pump #1 moved twice as much water as pump #2 pump #2 moved twice as much water as pump #1 both pumps moved the same amount of waterarrow_forwardThe piston of a vertical piston-cylinder device containing a gas has a mass of 50 kg and a cross- sectional area of 0.04 m2, as shown in the figure.

The atmosphere exerts a pressure of 14.7 lbf/in² on top of the piston. A paddle wheel transfers 3 Btu of energy to the gas during a process in which the elevation of the piston increases slowly by 2 ft. The piston and cylinder are poor thermal conductors, and friction between the piston and cylinder can be neglected.

- A firearm can be modeled as a kind of heat engine, where the projectile acts as a piston that separates from the rest of the system during expansion. Consider a rifle with a 1.70 kg barrel made of iron [specific heat = 448 J/(kg °C)]. The rifle fires a 4.00 g bullet that exits the barrel with a speed of 350 m/s. When the propellant is ignited, 1.10% of the energy released goes into propelling the bullet (this is the thermal efficiency of the "engine"). The other 98.9% can be approximated as being entirely absorbed by the barrel, which increases in temperature uniformly for a short time before this energy is dissipated into the surroundings. What is this temperature increase (in °C)?
