Problem 3: A capacitor of capacitance C = 2 μF has been charged so that the potential difference between its plates is V0 = 85 V. The capacitor is then connected to a resistor of resistance R = 5.5 kΩ. The switch S is closed, and the capacitor begins to discharge. C = 2 μF V0 = 85 V R = 5.5 kΩ Calculate the time constant τ of the circuit in seconds. Calculate the charge Q0 on the capacitor before the switch is closed, in coulombs. Calculate the current I0 immediately after the switch is closed, in amperes. Calculate the potential difference VC in volts between the capacitor plates at time t = 5.0 ms after the switch is closed. Calculate the time T in s after which the charge on the capacitor has decreased to one fourth its maximum value.

A substance whose state is pecified by P,V,T can exist in two distinct phases. At a given temp T the two phases can coexist if the pressure is P(T).

The following information is known about the two phases. At the temps and pressures where they can coexist in equilibrium,

i) There is no difference in the specific volume of the two phases

ii) there is no difference in the specific entropy of the two phases

iii) the specific heat cp and the volume expansion coefficient a(alpha) are diffrent for the two phases

a) Find dP(T)/dT as a fuction of T.

b) What is the qualitative shape of the transition region in the P-V diagram? In what way is it different from that of an ordinary gas-liquid transition? ( The phase transition we have described is a second-order transition.)

Hydrogen, acting as a van der Waals gas (EOS shown below), is compressed in an isothermal closed system process from 6.236m3/kg to 0.629m3/kg at 300K. What is the change in specific entropy of the gas? (use the entropy change relation in chapter 12)

P = RT/( v − b) − a/( v^2) (1)

a = 27R^2Tcrit^2/(64Pcrit) (2)

b = RTcrit/ (8Pcrit) (3)

Following example 12-7 in the book the change in internal energy of a van der Waals gas for an isothermal process can be derived (the result is shown below). Using the definition of boundary work (wb = R P dv) and conservation of energy what is the amount of heat which is rejected by the compression process?

u2 − u1 = a (1/v1 − 1/v2)

(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.
