examples.
4.State the first law of thermodynamics for a closed system undergoing a cycle.
5.What is the difference between an adiabatic and an isentropic process? Are all
adiabatic processes isentropic?

7. State the disadvantages of 1st law of thermodynamics?
8. Prove that PdV = Cp dT-Vdp- CvdT
9. Prove that Cp-Cv = R
10. Work done by a system follows V= 150/P m3,where p is in bar. Compute work done
on or by the system as pressure increases to 15 to 120bar.Also indicate whether it is a
compression process or expansion process.
11. A system of volume V contains a mass of gas at pressure p and temperature T. The
macroscopic properties of the system obey the following relationship:
(P+ a/V2 ) (V-b) = mRT where a, b and R are constants.
Obtain an expression for the displacement work done by the system during a
constant temperature expansion from volume V1 to Volume V2.Calculate the work
done by a system which contains 10kg of this gas expanding from 1m3 to 10m3 at a
temperature of 293K.Use the values a = 15.7x10Nm 4, b=1.07x10-2 m3 and R= 0.278
KJ/kg-K.
12. 0.085m3 drum contains saturated water and water vapour at 334ᵒC. Find the mass if
each of their volumes are equal.
13. Find the internal energy of vapour at 10bar and x = 0.95 in a vessel of 0.03m 3
capacity. Due to heat loss by radiation, the pressure of the steam falls to
3bar.Determine the quality of steam in the final state and the heat loss to radiation.
Neglect the volume of water present.
14. 80kJ of heat are supplied to a system at constant volume. The system rejects 85KJ of
heat at constant pressure and 15KJ of work is said to be done on it. The above two
processes are then followed by adiabatic process to complete the cycle. Find
adiabatic work and internal energy at all end states if initial value is 90KJ.
15. During a process of heat transfer per degree increase of temperature follows 3KJ/ᵒC
and work transfer per degree increase of temperature follows 3-0.2tKJ/ᵒC. Calculate
change in internal energy if the temperature increases from 100ᵒC to 200ᵒC.
