Question: H W - 6 ( i ) A gas ( m = 0 . 0 0 4 k g ) is contained in a closed,

HW-6(i)
A gas (m=0.004kg) is contained in a closed, vertical piston-cylinder
device; mass of the piston is 50 kg and the area of the piston is 0.01m2.
Assume that atmospheric pressure of 100 kPa acts outside the piston and
acceleration due to gravity is 9.81ms2. The gas has an initial volume of
0.0050m3(State 1). The cylinder is then slowly cooled with a heat transfer
of 1.95 kJ from the cylinder to the surroundings until the gas volume
decreases to 0.0025m3(State 2).
Find the change in specific internal energy of the gas, in kJkg.
H W - 6 ( i ) A gas ( m = 0 . 0 0 4 k g ) is
