In meteorology, an explanation of ”dry air heats up faster than moist air” is often provided to explainwhy dry areas of the country (central U. S.) seem to ”heat up faster” than coastal parts of the country(eastern U. S.). Is this statement true? Provide a calculation to support your answer. Assume that you haveair that is completely dry (mixing ratio of zero), and air that is moist (vapor pressure of 2000 Pa). Both airsamples are at 20oC and have the same total pressure (100,000 Pa) and volume (1 m3).

Apiston-cylinder with a volume of 0.25 m3 holds 1 kg of air (r 0.287 k/kgk) at a temperature of 100 c. heat transfer to the cylinder causes an isothermal expansion of the piston until the volume triples. how much heat is added to the piston-cylinder?

Which from the following instrument is commonly used to detect the high pitch butzing sound in bearings? [clo4] a)-digital ultrasonic meter b)-infrared camera c)-spectroscopic d)-vibrometer

Agas contained within a piston-cylinder assembly e end nation about same energy states, 1 and 2, where pi 10 bar, v undergoes two processes, a and b, between the sam 0.1 m3, ui-400 kj and p2 1 bar, v2 1.0 m2, u2 200 kj: process a: process from 1 to 2 during which the pressure- volume relation is pv constant process b: constant-volume process from state 1 to a pressure of 2 bar, followed by a linear pressure-volume process to +20 0 state 2 kinetic and potential energy effects can be ignored. for each of the processes a and b, (a) sketch the process on p-v coordinates, (b) evaluate the work, in kj, and (c) evaluate process the heat transfer, in kj
