G An insulated piston–cylinder device contains 4 L of saturated liquid water at a constant pressure of 175 kPa. Water is stirred by a paddle wheel while a current of 8 A flows for 45 min through a resistor placed in the water. One-half of the liquid is evaporated during this constant-pressure process and the paddle-wheel work amounts to 400 kJ.

The question is not complete and the complete question is;

An insulated piston-cylinder device contains 4 L of saturated liquid water at a constant pressure of 175 kPa. Water is stirred by a paddle wheel while a current of 8 A flows for 45 min through a resistor placed in the water. If one-half of the liquid is evaporated during this constant-pressure process and the paddle-wheel work amounts to 400 kJ, determine the voltage of the source. Also, show the process on a P-Vdiagram with respect to saturation lines.

Voltage of source = 175.33 V

I've attached an image of the P-Vdiagram of the process with respect to saturation lines.

Explanation:

To solve this question, we'll adopt the following assumptions.

- The kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible

-The thermal energy stored in the cylinder is negligible

-The cylinder is well insulated and thus heat transfer is negligible.

If the contents of the cylinder is taken as the system, the energy balance is;

Ein - Eout = ΔEsystem

Thus, [W(e-internal) + W(pw-internal)] - Wout = ΔU

Thus, IVΔt + W(pw-internal) = ΔH

= m(h2 - +1)

Now,looking at steam table A-5 attached to this answer, at P =175, x1 is calculated to be 0; dryness fraction, x2 = 0.5; vf = 0.001057m³/kg and hf = 487.01KJ/Kg and hg at saturation vapour = 2700.2

So, from this question v1=vf = 0.001057m³/kg and h1 = hf = 487.01KJ/Kg.

Also, h2 = hf + x2 (hg - hf) = 487.1 + 0.5(2700. 2 - 487.1) = 1593.65 KJ/Kg

The mass of the water is defined as;

M=V/v1

Volume(V) = 4L from the question. Since v1 is in m³/kg, let's convert V to m³. So V=4/1000 = 0.004

So, M = 0.004/0.001057 = 3.784kg

Now the formula for the voltage is ;

V = [M(h2 - h1) - W(pw-internal)] /(IΔt)

Δt=45minutes. We convert it to seconds to get 45x60 =2700 seconds

V = [[3.784 x (1593.65 - 487.1) - 400]/(8 x2700)] x 1000 = 175.33 V

answer would be letter choice (a),   a ball resting on a shelf. would be another example of potential energy   >   stored energy > not moving.

a ball spinning on a finger   >   kinetic energy > moving energy

a ball rolling on the ground   >   kinetic energy   > moving energy

a   ball flying through the air   > kinetic energy   >   moving energy

-first use of geothermal energy occurred more than 10,000 years ago in north america by american paleo-indians

-the first industrial use of geothermal energy began near pisa, italy in late 18th century

-in 1904, italian scientist piero ginori conti invented the first geothermal electric power plant in which steam was used to generate the power

-with the above experiment, the first geothermal plant in usa started in 1922 with a capacity of 250 kilowatts

-however, in 1946 first ground-source geothermal heat pump installed at commonwealth building in portland, oregon

-during the 1960’s, pacific gas and electric began operation of first large scale geothermal power plant in san francisco, producing 11 megawatts

-in 1973, when oil crisis began many countries began looking for renewable energy sources and by 1980’s geothermal heat pumps (ghp) started gaining popularity in order to reduce heating and cooling costs

-as effect of climate change started showing results, governments of various countries joined hands to fight against it, for which kyoto protocol was signed in japan in 1997, laid out emission targets for rich countries and required that they transfer funds and technology to developing countries, 184 countries have ratified it

hope this
