Since Volume Is Constant, Use Charles' Law On Constant Volume
Since Volume Is Constant, Use Charles' Law On Constant Volume
Solution:
Since volume is constant, use Charles’ Law on constant volume
processes.
P1/T1=P2/T2
Note: P and T should be absolute.
P2=48.99 psia
P2g=48.99-14.7
P2g=34.29 psig
1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2
then,
P2 = (P1V1T2)/(T1V2)
P2 = (14.7 psia x100 ft^3 x 660 k)/(460 k x 1 ft^3)
P2 = 2109.13 psia

Here is the method.
Since PV = nRT
PV/(nT) = R
PV/T=constant
P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2
(740)(400)/(18+273)=(760)V2/(0+273)
V2=365.3 cc

Answer: A 0.01925 kg
B 0.7123 kg
C 1.886 kPa
mass 1 = P1V1/R1T1
P(abs) = P(atm) - P(vac) = 20 mm Hg = 2666 pascal
R= 2077.67 pa. m^3/kg. K
mass of helium remaining in the tank
T3 = 10 C + 273 = 283 K
p3 = nRT3/V
p3 = .01925 kg x (2077.67 pa. m^3/kg. K) x (283 K) / (6m^3)
p3 = 1886.43779 Pa
p3 = 1.886 kPa

Lift Load = Buoyancy Force = (Weight of air inside balloon if it were
filled with outside dry air) - (Weight of actual gas inside balloon)
Density of gas = (absolute pressure)(Molecular Weight of Gas) /
[(Specific Gas Constant)(absolute temperature)]

10. A gas initially at 15 psia and 2 ft³ undergoes a process to 90 psia and 0.60 ft³, during which the
enthalpy increases by 15.5 Btu; Cv = 2.44 Btu/ lb . °R. Determine (a) Change in U; (b) Cp and (c) R
Given:
P1 = 15 psia
V1 = 2 ft³
Cv = 2.44 Btu/ lb . °R
P2 = 90 psia
V2 = 0.60 ft³
Change in H = 15.5 Btu
Solution:
b. k = Change in H/Change in U
= 15.5/11.05
= 1.40
Cp = kCv
= 1.40 ( 2.44 Btu/lb . °R)
= 3.42 Btu/lb . °R
c. Cp = Cv + R
R = Cp – Cv
= 3.42 – 2.44
11. For a certain gas R=0.277 kJ/ kg.K and k=1.384 (a) What are the value of
Cp and Cv ? (b) What mass of this gas would occupy a volume of 0.425 cu m
at 517.11 kPa and 26.7degree Celsius (c) If 31.65 kJ are transferred to this
gas at constant volume in (b) , what are the resulting temperature and
pressure?
Part (a):
R = Cp - Cv and k = Cp/Cv
0.277 = Cp - Cv
Part (b):
Part (c)
This means the temperature increased by 16.58 degrees.
(When you are dealing with deltaTs, the difference is the same for
Kelvin or Centigrade.)
