Aclosed system consisting of 4 lb of a gas undergoes a process during which the relation between pressure and volume is pvn 5 constant. the process begins with p1 5 15 lbf/in.2, 1 5 1.25 ft3/lb and ends with p2 5 53 lbf/in.2, 2 5 0.5 ft3/lb. determine (a) the volume, in ft3, occupied by the gas at states 1 and 2 and (b) the value of n. (c) sketch process 1–2 on pressure–volume coordinates.

V1=5ft3

V2=2ft3

n=1.377

Explanation:

PART A:

the volume of each state is obtained by multiplying the mass by the specific volume in each state

V=volume

v=especific volume

m=mass

V=mv

state 1

V1=m.v1

V1=4lb*1.25ft3/lb=5ft3

state 2

V2=m.v2

V2=4lb*0.5ft3/lb=   2ft3

PART B:

since the PV ^ n is constant we can equal the equations of state 1 and state 2

P1V1^n=P2V2^n

P1/P2=(V2/V1)^n

ln(P1/P2)=n . ln (V2/V1)

n=ln(P1/P2)/ ln (V2/V1)

n=ln(15/53)/ ln (2/5)

n=1.377

unlike the threaded fasteners which are used to clamp the machine members, power screws are used to transmit power. common applications of power screws are: screw jacks: to lift weight. lead screw of lathe: for axial movement of tool and its precise positioning.

d would be the most obvious choice to this question. leaders are supposed to herd their underlings like a shepherd to sheep. a leader should also listen to others when they are talking to one other to gain a better understanding of their mission and surroundings.
