3. 2 moles of an ideal gas at 17oC has a pressure of 760mm mercury, and is compressed once isothermally and then adiabatically until its volume is halved [in each case reversibly and from identical initial conditions]. The gas constant is 8.314J/kg. The density of the mercury is 13.60g/cm3 . [Express all your answers in MKS units e.g. volume in cubic meter, pressure in Pascal, Temperature in Kelvin, etc.]

Question 2: An electromagnetic projectile launcher has been built. You are tasked with developing a model for the velocity of the projectile.

The launcher stores energy in a capacitor, which is charged to a voltage, Vi prior to launch. The capacitor discharges to 2,000 V, Vf during the launch. The velocity of the projectile is measured for several different voltages as shown in the table.

1. Create an Excel scatter chart with trendline for data set, selecting the best mathematical model type. Show the trendline equation and goodness of fit R2 on the chart. Include title, labels, and other standard information to properly document the plot.

2. TKE, if the projectile is 30 kg for each launch and the capacitor is 2 F (farad).   Note: Energy remaining stored in the capacitor is not wasted, and can be used in the next launch; this is the residual or final energy stored in the capacitor. It may be helpful to record this for each event. From the problem statement, the residual voltage is 2000 V

3. Determine the energy, Ewaste, which does not transfer from stored energy in the capacitor to kinetic energy

(Ewaste represents energy converted to heat, sound, light, etc.)

Hint: Energy stored in a capacitor is given by the relationship     E = ½ CV2 where C is the capacitance (2 F) and V is the voltage. This is calculated from the various voltage values shown, and the units are Joules (J).      TKE = ½*mass*Velocity2   This velocity corresponds to the charge voltage actually used.

Finally, recall the Law of Conservation of Energy discussed in Lesson 2. Energy in any form remains constant (energy is neither created nor destroyed by changes form), so the total energy of this system must be unchanged. This means that independent of the form (electrical, kinetic, or wasted) the net change in energy must be zero!

                                    in simple terms:            Initial energy = Kinetic Energy + Final Energy + Wasted Energy

4. Show the fraction (percentage), Ewaste/Einitial for each launch.

5. Create a second scatter plot of the fraction loss vs Initial voltage. Include title, labels and other standard information to properly document the plot.

6. Using a trendline model, determine the polynomial which best describes the waste fraction as a function of initial voltage.

     (This is a perfect example of applying the curve fit "in a limited region"; is is not for all possible values of voltage)
