A 1-m3 tank holds a two-phase liquid-vapor mixture of carbon dioxide at – 17 °C. The quality of the mixture is 70%. For saturated carbon dioxide at – 17 °C, vf = 0.9827×10-3 m3/kg and vg =1.756×10-2 m3/kg. Determine the masses of saturated liquid and saturated vapor, each in kg. What is the percent of the total volume occupied by saturated liquid?

a)  

b)  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Volume of tank

Temperature of

Quality of the mixture

Specific Volume constants at

Generally the equation for Specific Volume is mathematically given by

Generally the equation for Mass is mathematically given by

Generally the Mass of saturated Vapor is mathematically given by

Generally the Mass of saturated Liquid is mathematically given by

b)

Generally the equation for Volume is mathematically given by

Therefore Percentage of liquid

the minimum constant speed at which she can catch the train is 2.7 m/s

given:

acceleration = 0.6

time = 4.5 s

to find:

velocity = ?

formula used:

from 1st kinematic equation we get,

v = u + at

u = initial speed of train = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the train

a = acceleration of the train

t = time

solution:

from 1st kinematic equation we get,

v = u + at

u = initial speed of train = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the train

a = acceleration of the train

t = time

v = 0 + (0.6 × 4.5)

v = 2.7 m/s

the minimum constant speed at which she can catch the train is 2.7 m/s
