A piston-cylinder Carnot engine has 1 kg of air as the working fluid. Heat is supplied to the air at 800 K and rejected by the air at 300 K. At the beginning of the heat addition process, the pressure is 0.8 MPa and during heat addition the volume triples. (a) Calculate the net cycle work in kJ assuming air is an ideal gas with constant specific heats at 300 K.

Suppose you were asked to find the torque about point p due to the normal force n in terms of given quantities. which method of finding the torque would be the easiest to use?

The energy released by a chemical reaction can be measured using a calorimeter. when barium hydroxide octahydrate crystals are reacted with dry ammonium chloride inside of a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature of the 18.00 g of water in the calorimeter decreases from 30.0°c to 8.0°c. the equation for calculating energy absorbed or released by a reaction is: where q is the energy released or absorbed, m is the mass of water in the calorimeter, cp is the specific heat of water, and δt is the observed temperature change. if the specific heat of liquid water is 4.19 j/g·°c, how much energy was absorbed by the reaction?

What is the measure of a change in an objects velocity?
