Chapter 8, Problem 30ICA
The specific heats of aluminum and iron are 0.214 and 0.107 calories per gram degree Celsius [cal/(g °C)], respectively. If we add the same amount of energy to a cube of each material of the same mass and find that the temperature of the aluminum increases by 30 degrees Fahrenheit [°F], how much will the iron temperature increase in degrees Fahrenheit [°F]?

A motor has circular cylinders with a 3.875 inch diameter.
The height of the cylinder is 4.7 inches and has an ideal gas
The piston moves up in the cylinder and compresses the ideal gas. At the end of compression, the cylinder has a volume of 7.37 cubic inches
The amount of gas and the temperature of the gas stay the same during compression and the initial pressure in the cylinder is 1.2 atmosphere [atm].
Find the pressure after compression in units of pounds-force per square inch [psi].
An insulated, constant-volume system containing 1.36 kg of air receives 53 kJ of paddle work. The initial temperature is 27 C. Determine (a) the final temperature [1 decimal place] and (b) the change of internal energy [whole number].
1. Refrigerant R-22 with the mass of 2 kg is located inside the sealed container, initially saturated vapor at 6.8 bar. Heat was added to refrigerant and final pressure reached 20 bar according to pv=const. Neglecting the kinetic and potential energy changes determine:
Internal energy change in [J]
Heat added to the refrigerant in [J] and work done by fluid in [J].
3.draw the Temperature-volume diagram showing all stages.
4.What do you think about the final stage condition? Is it gas, liquid-gas, or liquid stage?

There are actually several formal definitions of pound. One classification system defines a pound-mass (analogous to kg in SI units) and a pound-force (lbf) (analogous to a Newton); this is formally called English Engineering units but also commonly used in US Customary System units. The “pound” in the “pounds per square inch” of psi refers to pound-force. Hence, psi has units of force per area. Note that 1 lbf is defined as the gravitational force generated by 1 lb (mass) by multiplying it by the standard gravitational acceleration at the earth’s surface. Starting with just the two everyday conversion approximations every Canadian should know (1.00 kg ≈ 2.20 lb (mass) and 1.00 inch ≈ 2.54 cm), derive an approximation of 1.00 psi in Pa through unit conversions only (show each step).arrow_forwardSome scientists believe that the collision of one or more large asteroids with the Earth was responsible for the extinction of the dinosaurs. The unit of kiloton is used to describe the energy released during large explosions. It was originally defined as the explosive capability of 1000 tons of trinitrotoluene (TNT) high explosive. Because that expression can be imprecise depending on the explosive's exact chemical composition, the kiloton subsequently has been redefined as the equivalent of 4.186 x 1012 J. In the units of kiloton, calculate the kinetic energy of an asteroid that has the size (box-shaped, 13 x 13 x 25 km) and composition (density, 2.4 g/cm) of an asteroid. Kinetic energy is defined by U. = mv? where m is the object's mass and v is its speed. Objects passing through the inner solar system generally have speeds in the range of 20 km/s.
