(THERMODYNAMICS) A vertical cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston contains 1.5 kg of H2O initially at 100 °C, 400 kPa.  If the volume of the system reaches 0.5 m3, the piston hits a set of stops and is restrained from further upward travel. The system is heated to 200 C. (Use saturated water tables, steam tables, and superheated tables as necessary)

a)   If the piston reaches the stops, determine the temperature and pressure when the piston first touches but exerts no force on the stops.  If the piston doesn’t reach the stops, find the final volume.  Clearly show how you determined whether or not the piston reaches the stops.

b)   Calculate the heat and work for the entire process.

c)   Show the entire process on a T-v and P-v diagram including the saturation curve.

A closed and elevated vertical cylindrical tank with diameter 2.10 m contains water to a depth of 0.500 m . A worker accidently pokes a circular hole with diameter 0.0170 m in the bottom of the tank. As the water drains from the tank, compressed air above the water in the tank maintains a gauge pressure of 5.00×103 Pa at the surface of the water. Ignore any effects of viscosity.

A)Just after the hole is made, what is the speed of the water as it emerges from the hole? (v=____)

B)What is the ratio of this speed to the efflux speed if the top of the tank is open to the air? (v/vopen=________)

C)How much time does it take for all the water to drain from the tank? (t=_______)

D)What is the ratio of this time to the time it takes for the tank to drain if the top of the tank is open to the air? (t/topen=_______)

A 4.0 µF capacitor and a 5.0 µF capacitor are connected in series across a 1.5 kV potential difference. The charged capacitors are then disconnected from the source and connected to each other with terminals of like sign together. Find the charge on each capacitor (in mC) and the voltage across each capacitor (in V).
