Answer:
Technician B only is correct
Explanation:
The last stage of gears found between the vehicle transmission system and the wheels is the final drive ratio. The function of the final drive gear assembly is to enable a gear reduction control stage to reduce the rotation per minute and increase the wheel torque, such that the vehicle performance can be adjusted and the final gear ratio can be between 3:1 and 4.5:1 not 1:1
Therefore, technician B only is correct
A piston-cylinder device contains 0.1 kg of hydrogen gas (PG model: cv=10.18, k = 1.4, R= 4.12 kJ/kg-K) at 1000 kPa and 300 K. The gas undergoes an expansion process and the final conditions are 500 kPa, 270 K. If 10 kJ of heat is transferred into the gas from the surroundings at 300 K, determine (a) the boundary work (Wb), and (b) the entropy generated (Sgen) during the process
Answer:
(a) 151.84 kJ
(b) 2.922 kJ/K
Explanation:
(a) The parameters given are;
Mass of hydrogen gas, H₂ = 0.1 kg = 100 g
Molar mass of H₂ = 2.016 g/mol
Number of moles of H₂ = 100/2.016 = 49.6 moles
V₁ = mRT/P = 0.1×4.12×300/1000 = 0.1236 m³
P₁/P₂ = (V₂/V₁)^k
V₂ = (P₁/P₂)^(1/k)×V₁ =0.1236 × (1000/500)^(1/1.4) = 0.3262 m³
Boundary work done = (V₂ - V₁)(P₂ + P₁)/2 = (0.3262 - 0.1236)*(500 + 1000)/2 = 151.84 kJ
(b) Entropy generated ΔS = Cv · ㏑(T₂/T₁) + R ·㏑(v₂/v₁)
=10.18 × ㏑(270/300) + 4.12 ·㏑(0.3262/0.1236) = 2.922 kJ/K.
