AI Thread Summary
At 100°C and a pressure of 1.01 x 10^5 Pa, 1.00 kg of steam occupies 1.67 m^3, while 1.00 kg of water occupies 1.04 x 10^-3 m^3. To calculate the heat supplied, work done by the system, and increase in internal energy, the specific latent heat of vaporization (2.26 x 10^6 J kg^-1) is essential. The discussion emphasizes the need to calculate internal energy for both phases and the two enthalpies, which account for system energy and work done against the environment. The lack of examples in the textbook has made it challenging for participants to solve the problem effectively. Understanding these thermodynamic principles is crucial for accurate calculations.

Homework Statement


At 100°C and pressure of 1.01 x 10^5 pa,1.00kg steam occupies a volume of 1.67m^3.The volume of 1.00kg water is 1.04 x 10^-3 m^3.the specific latent heat of vaporisation of water at 100°C is 2.26 x 10^6 J kg^-1.When 1.00kg water changes into steam at 100°C and pressure of 1.01 x 10^5 pa,calculate

A)heat supplied
B)Work done by the system
C)Increase in internal energy of the system


Homework Equations


P(v2-v1).my book lack of example .So i try a lot of times but can't do it.help me


The Attempt at a Solution


I can't solve the question.The book din have this type of example.

You should be able to calculate the internal energy of the system for both cases.

You should also be able to calculate the two enthalpies. Recall that enthalpy is the system energy plus the work required to place the system within a given volume of constant pressure fluid. i.e. you must displace something else at that pressure and volume to contain the system, i.e. you must do work on the environment.
 
I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
