By applying a pressure of 200atm, you can compress water to 99%of its usual volume. Sketch this process (not necessarily to scale) on aPV diagram, and estimate the work required to compress a liter of water by this amount. Does the result surprise you?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Work done at constant pressure is W=202.65Jand at variable pressure work done is W=100.8J.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

By applying a pressure of 200atm,water can be compressed to99%of its usual volume.

02

Calculation

To obtain work done on the system :W=-∫VtvfPdV…...(1)

Here P is pressure, ViandVfare initial volume and final volume.

At a pressure of 200atm, the volume of the water is reduced to 99%of its value at atmospheric pressure 1atm.

Assume that the reduction in volume is linearly proportional to the increase in pressure.

The pressure is calculated as :P=AV+B…...(2)

Here A and B are constant, P is pressure and V is volume.

At P=1atm, the volume is V=Vo.

And at P=200atm, the volume is V=99Vo100.

Let's take the standard temperature and pressure, P=1atm, equation (2) can be written as by substitute VoforV

I=AVo+B.…..(3)

For P=200atm,equation (2) can be written as, by substituting 99Vo100forV

200=A99Vo100+B…...(4)

Solve equation (3) and (4) for the value of A and B

A=-19900Voatm.m-3B=19901atm.

Now equation (1) can be written as

P=-19900VoV+19901…..(5)

Work required to compress 1 liter of water to 99%can be found by :

W=-∫10-30.99×10-3PdV……(6)

localid="1651133444001" W=-∫10-30.99×10-3-2.016×1012V+2.016×109dVW=-2.016×1012V22+2.016×109V10-30.99×10-3

Substitute localid="1651133451713" 1litrefor V to solve A and B

localid="1651133447933" A=-199001×10-3.101325Paa1ammatm.m3A=-2.016×1012atm.m-3

And similarly, for B, localid="1651133455574" B=2.016×109atm

Substitute AV+B for P in equation (6)

localid="1651133459614" W=-∫10-30.99×10-3(AV+B)dV……(7)

Substitute localid="1651133463066" 2.016×109atmforBand-2.016×1012atmm-3forAinequation(7)

localid="1651133466748" W=-∫10-30.99×10-3-2.016×1012V+2.016×109dVW=-2.016×1012V22+2.016×109V10-30.99×10-3W=100.8J

If constant pressure of localid="1651133470929" 200atm=2.0265×107Pais considered,

Work done will be localid="1651133474496" W=-PΔV=-PVf-Vi…..(8)

Substitute localid="1651133477862" 0.99VoforVfandVoforViinequation(8)

localid="1651133481243" W=-P0.99Vo-Vo…..(9)

Again substitute localid="1651133484260" -2.0265×107forPand1×10-3forVoinequation

localid="1651133487776" W=-2.0265×107×-0.01VoW=2.0265×107×-0.01×10-3W=202.65J

And the graph between pressure and volume is shown below which is followed by equation (5)

Hence, at constant pressure work done is W=202.65Jand at variable pressure work done is W=100.8J.

03

Final answer

Work done at constant pressure is W=202.65J and at variable pressure work done isW=100.8J.

Estimate how long it should take to bring a cup of water to boiling temperature in a typical 600-wattmicrowave oven, assuming that all the energy ends up in the water. (Assume any reasonable initial temperature for the water.) Explain why no heat is involved in this process.

Home owners and builders discuss thermal conductivities in terms of the value (Rfor resistance) of a material, defined as the thickness divided by the thermal conductivity:

R≡Δxkt

(a) Calculate the Rvalue of a 1/8-inch(3.2mm) piece of plate glass, and then of a 1mmlayer of still air. Express both answers in SI units.

(b) In the United States, Rvalues of building materials are normally given in English units,∘F⋅ft2⋅hr/Btu. A Btu, or British thermal unit, is the energy needed to raise the temperature of a pound of water 1∘F. Work out the conversion factor between the SI and English units for values. Convert your answers from part (a) to English units.

(c) Prove that for a compound layer of two different materials sandwiched together (such as air and glass, or brick and wood), the effective total Rvalue is the sum of the individual Rvalues.

(d) Calculate the effective Rvalue of a single piece of plate glass with a 1.0mmlayer of still air on each side. (The effective thickness of the air layer will depend on how much wind is blowing; 1mmis of the right order of magnitude under most conditions.) Using this effective Rvalue, make a revised estimate of the heat loss through a 1−m2single-pane window when the temperature in the room is 20∘Chigher than the outdoor temperature.

List all the degrees of freedom, or as many as you can, for a molecule of water vapor. (Think carefully about the various ways in which the molecule can vibrate.)

Calculate the total thermal energy in a gram of lead at room temperature, assuming that none of the degrees of freedom are "frozen out" (this happens to be a good assumption in this case).
