Find the change in internal energy of 5lbm of oxygen
when the temperature changes from 100F to 120F,
Cv = 0.157 Btu/lbm-R.
a. 14.70 Btu
c. 16.80 Btu
b. 15.70 Btu
d. 147 Btu
Solution:
U = mCvT
T2 = 120F =[120F]+459.67 = 579.67 R
T1 = 100C = [100F]+459.67 = 559.67 R
m = 5 lbm
Cv = 0.157 Btu/lbm-R
= (5lbm)*(0.157 Btu/lbm-R)*(579.67-559.67 R)
= 15.70 Btu (b)
62. Water (Specific heat, Cv = 4.2 kJ/kg-K) is being heated
by 1500-W heater. What is the rate of change in
temperature of 1 kg of water?
a. 0.043 Kelvin/s
c. 0.357 Kelvin/s
b. 0.179 Kelvin/s
d. 1.50 Kelvin/s
Solution:
Q = mCvT
T = Q/mCv
Q = 1500 watts = 1.5 kw = 1.5 kJ/s
Cv = 4.2 kJ/kg-K
m = 1 kg
T = (1.5 kJ/s)/(1 kg * 4.2 kJ/kg-K)
= 0.357 K/s (c)
63. One kilogram of water (Cv = 4.2 kJ/kg-K) is heated by
300 Btu of energy. What is the change in temperature
in K?
a. 75.36 K
c. 73.80 K
b. 125.20 K
d. 17.96 K
Solution:
Q = mCvT
T = Q/mCv
m = 1 kg
Cv = 4.2 kJ/kg-K
Q = 300 Btu (1.055 kJ/Btu) = 316.50 kJ
T = 316.50 kJ / (1 kg * 4.2 kJ/kg-K)
= 75.36 K (a)
64. Determine the change in enthalpy per lb mass of
nitrogen gas as its temperature changes from 500F to
200F. (Cp = 0.2483 Btu/lbm-R)
a. 74.49 Btu/lbm
c. 68.47 Btu/lbm
b. 72.68 Btu/lbm
d. 63.78 Btu/lbm
Solution:
Q = h
h = mCp T ; h/m = Cp T
Cp = 0.2483 Btu/lbm
T2 = 200F =[120F]+459.67 = 659.67 R
T1 = 500C = [100F]+459.67 = 959.67 R
h/m = (0.2483 Btu/lbm) * (659.67-959.67 R)
= - 74.49 Btu/lbm (a)
65. Calculate the change in enthalpy as 1 kg of nitrogen is heated from
1000 K to 1500 K, assuming the nitrogen is an ideal gas at a constant
pressure. The temperature dependent specific heat of nitrogen is
Cp = 39.06 512 T^(-1.5) + 1072.7 T^(-2) 820.4 T^(-3) where Cp is in
kJ.kg-mol, and T is in K.
a. 600 kJ
b. 697.27 kJ
c. 800 kJ
d. 897.27 kJ
Solution:
Cp = h / T ; h = Cp * T
Cp = 39.06 512 T^(-1.5) + 1072.7 T^(-2) 820.4 T^(-3)
T : T2 = 1500 , T1 = 1000
h = Cp * T
66. What is the resulting pressure when one pound of air at
15 psia and 200F is heated at constant volume to 800F?
a. 15 psia
c. 36.4 psia
b. 28.6 psia
d. 52.1 psia
Solution:
P1/T1 = P2/T2
P2 = (P1*T2) / T1
P2 = ( 15 psia * (800+460) ) / (200+460)
= 28.64 psia (b)
