A mass of 4 kilograms of carbon dioxide (CO2) in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes two processes in series from an initial state where p1 = 0.5 MPa, T1 = 267°C: Process 1–2: Constant-temperature expansion until the volume is twice the initial volume. Process 2–3: Constant-volume heating until the pressure is again 0.5 MPa. Assuming ideal gas behavior, determine (a) the pressure at state 2, in MPa, (b) the temperature at state 3, in oC, and for each of the processes (c) the work and heat transfer, each in kJ.

Inspection for bearing condition will include: (clo4) a)-color b)-smell c)-size d)-none of the above

At steady state, air at 200 kpa, 325 k, and mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s enters an insulated duct having differing inlet and exit cross-sectional areas. the inlet cross-sectional area is 6 cm2. at the duct exit, the pressure of the air is 100 kpa and the velocity is 250 m/s. neglecting potential energy effects and modeling air as an 1.008 kj/kg k, determine ideal gas with constant cp = (a) the velocity of the air at the inlet, in m/s. (b) the temperature of the air at the exit, in k. (c) the exit cross-sectional area, in cm2
