Air in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes a process from state 1, where t1= 300 k, p1= 100 kpa, to state 2 where t2=500 k, p2=650 kpa. using the ideal gas model for air, determine the change in specific entropy between these states, in kj/kg*k, if the process occurs

a) without irreversibilities

b) with irreversibilities

The filament of an incandescent lamp has a temperature of 2000k. calculate the fraction of radiation emitted in the visible light band if the filament is approximated as blackbody

Carbon dioxide gas expands isotherm a turbine from 1 mpa, 500 k at 200 kpa. assuming the ideal gas model and neglecting the kinetic and potential energies, determine the change in entropy, heat transfer and work for each kilogram of co2.

A5 kg block of fe is dropped into a very large vat of water. the fe and water initial temperatures are 95 and 25 c, respectively. the fe final temperature is 25 c and the water can be treated as a thermal reservoir,. treated as a thermal reservoir take the water to be the system and determine the entropy generation. report vour answer in kj/k.
