Arigid tank of volume v is subdivided into two parts with volumes v1 = v/3 and v2 = 2v/3 using a rigid partition. volume v1 contains an ideal gas at 800◦c and pressure p1 while volume v2 is completely evacuated. now the partition between the two volumes is removed, upon which the ideal gas expands into the entire tank. heat is then applied to the gas until its pressure becomes equal to its initial pressure p1. determine the final temperature of the gas.

Which of the following is an easy way to remember the modified “x” tire rotation? a. nondrive wheels straight, cross the drive wheels b. drive wheels straight, cross the nondrive wheels c. drive wheels crossed, nondrive wheels straight d. drive wheels crossed, nondrive wheels crossed

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
