A piston encloses 1 lbm of water in an initial volume of 0.3 ft^3. The initial temperature is 120F. The piston leaves the stops at a pressure of 150 psia. The water is heated from it's initial state to a final temperature of 400F.

a) Draw the process on a P-v diagram with respect to saturation lines.

b) Evaluate the work done by the H2O.

c) Determine the volume occupied by the liquid at the initial state and when the piston leaves the stops.

A piston-cylinder assembly contains 2.5 kg of saturated refrigerant R-134a with a quality of 10 % at 0 °C (State 1). There is a linear spring mounted on the piston such that when the mixture is heated the pressure reaches 1000 kPa with a volume of 70 L just as the piston touches the stop (State 2). The system is then heated further until a pressure of 1200 kPa is reached (State 3). a) Find the volume of the refrigerant in State 1. b) Calculate the work done by the device during the process from State 1 to State 3. c) Calculate the heat transfer required for this process. Also clearly indicate the direction of the heat transfer (whether into or out of the piston-cylinder system).

2.36 Is it worth it?: Andy is always looking for ways to make money fast. Lately, he has been trying to make money by gambling. Here is the game he is considering playing: The game costs $2 to play. He draws a card from a deck. If he gets a number card (2-10), he wins nothing. For any face card ( jack, queen or king), he wins $3. For any ace, he wins $5, and he wins an extra $20 if he draws the ace of clubs. Round answers to 2 decimal places.


a) Andy's expected profit per game is: $


b) Would you recommend this game to Andy as a good way to make money? Explain.

  • Yes, Andy could be lucky and might earn money in the long-run playing this game
  • No, we expect Andy to lose money each time he plays this game

In the carnival game​ Under-or-Over-Seven, a pair of fair dice is rolled​ once, and the resulting sum determines whether the player wins or loses his or her bet. For​ example, using method​ one, the player can bet $2.00 that the sum will be under​ 7, that​ is, 2,​ 3, 4,​ 5, or 6. For this​ bet, the player wins $2.00 if the result is under 7 and loses $2.00 if the outcome equals or is greater than 7.​ Similarly, using method​ two, the player can bet $2.00 that the sum will be over​ 7, that​ is, 8,​ 9, 10,​ 11, or 12.​ Here, the player wins $2.00 if the result is over 7 but loses $2.00 if the result is 7 or under. A third method of play is to bet ​$2.00 on the outcome 7. For this​ bet, the player wins $8.00 if the result of the roll is 7 and loses $2.00 otherwise.

Use C++

Black Jack

Create a program that uses methods and allows the user to play the game of blackjack against the computer dealer. Rules of Blackjack to remember include:

1. You need one 52 card deck of cards with cards from  2-Ace (4 cards of each number).

2. Jacks, Queens and Kings count as 10 points.

3. An Ace can be used as either 1 or 11 depending on what the user decides during the hand.

4. Draw randomly two cards for the "dealer" and display one of them while keeping the other hidden. Also, randomly draw two cards for the player and display them in view.

5. Allow the user to hit (randomly draw a card) as many times as they wish. If the player "busts" or gets over 21, the dealer automatically wins the players wager.

6. After the user "stands" or is satisfied with his total, the dealer must take a card if his total is 16 or below, and cannot take a card if his total is 17 or above.

7. If the dealer "busts" or goes over 21, the player wins back his wager plus his wager again. (Example - if a player bets $3 he gets back his original $3 plus an additional $3).

8. If neither the dealer or the player "busts" or goes over 21, then the highest total wins. Ties go to the dealer.

9. Note - the player should start with $20 in the bank and cannot wager more than he currently has in the bank.  

10.  Note - before each round the user can bet in whole dollars how much to wager or how much of the total in the bank to risk.

11. Allow the user to quit at any time. Of course, the user must quit if he/she runs out of money.

12. Remember, somehow ensure that the same card (example - 6 of spades) cannot be drawn twice in a single hand.
