Air is contained in a variable-load piston-cylinder device equipped with a paddle wheel. initially, air is at 400 kpa and 17°c. the paddle wheel is now turned by an external electric motor until 75 kj/kg of work has been transferred to air. during this process, heat is transferred to maintain a constant air temperature while allowing the gas volume to triple. calculate the required amount of heat transfer in kj/kg.

Scientist have use computer models to create a series of maps that show how susceptible coastal cities in island countries are to the sea rising at different levels.the map shows that a 1 meter rise would swap cities all along the us eastern seaboard. a 6-meter sea level rise with sub merge a large part of florida. thermal expansion has already raise the oceans 10 to 20 centimeters the most likely cause,directly and indirectly, for such a rise in sea level is

The great sandini is a 60.0-kg circus performer who is shot from a cannon (actually a spring gun). you don’t find many men of his caliber, so you him design a new gun. this new gun has a very large spring with a very small mass and a force constant of 1100 n/m that he will compress with a force of 4400 n. the inside of the gun barrel is coated with teflon, so the average friction force will be only 40.0 n during the 4.00 m he moves in the barrel. at what speed will he emerge from the end of the barrel, 2.50 m above his initial rest position?
