Question: Question 1 ) - A 0 . 5 - m 3 rigid tank contains air initially at 1 0 0 0 kPa and 2 2

Question 1)
- A 0.5-m3 rigid tank contains air initially at 1000 kPa and 22C. Air at 2000 kPa and 22C is slowly added until the pressure reaches 1500 kPa. Assume that the temperature in the tank does not change and that specific heats vary with temperature.
a}What is the initial mass of air in the tank, in kg? Round to three decimal places
b)What is the final mass of air in the tank, in kg? Round to three decimal places.
c)How much heat was removed, in kJ, to maintain the temperature, rounded to the nearest whole number
Question 2)
Saturated liquid water at 100 kPa enters a well-insulated pump and exits at 4 MPa. Assume that the inlet and outlet temperatures are the same.
a)How much work, in kJ/kg, is required? Report your answer to two decimal places using rounding.
Question 3)
R-134a enters a compressor as a saturated vapor at 80 kPa and exits at a pressure of 400 kPa. If 44 kJ/kg of work is required and 5 kJ/kg of heat is lost to the surroundings
a)What is the outlet temperature. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
Question 4)
Hot air at 400C and 150 kPa is to be used to produce saturated steam at 200C in an insulated, non-mixing heat exchanger. Water enters the heat exchanger at 20C while the air leaves at 350C. The mass flow rate of air is 0.8 kg/s, pressure drops are negligible, and specific heats for air are evaluated at the average air temperature.
a)What is the mass flow rate of water, in kg/s. Report your answer to four decimal places using rounding.
