(3 points)
An insulated 7.9m3 rigid tank contains air initially at 300 K and 192kPa.A46 heater running off a constant 116.8 V power source is used to heat the air. The heater is turned on
long enough for the pressure to increase to 384 kPa .
a) How much boundary work is done?
kJ
b) How long must the heater remain on (accounting for the fact that the specific heat is not constant)?
minutes
c) How long must the heater remain on assuming the specific heat is constant at a value taken from 300 K ?
minutes
