Students are asked to design an experiment to confirm that the pressure and volume of an ideal gas are inversely proportional. They use a cylinder containing an ideal gas that has a plunger equipped with a pressure sensor. They perform several trials, and in each trial they start with the gas at the same initial pressure and volume. The students then quickly push the plunger so that the gas achieves a different final pressure and volume. After analyzing their results, they determine that the final pressures and volumes do not follow an inversely proportional relationship. Which of the following refinements to the procedure would show the inverse proportionality between pressure and volume? A. Compress the gas slowly so that the temperature remains constant.
B. Perform more trials to obtain more data points.
C. Discard data points that do not show inverse proportionality between pressure and volume.
D. Compress the plunger even faster so that the compression is effectively instantaneous.

Air is to be preheated by hot exhaust gases in a cross-flow heat exchanger before it enters the furnace. air enters the heat exchanger at 95 kpa and 20°c at a rate of 0.6 m^3/s. the combustion gases (cp = 1.10 kj/kg°c) enter at 160°c at a rate of 0.95 kg/s and leave at 95°c. determine the rate of heat transfer to the air and its outlet temperature.
