33. A pressure of 1.52 105 Pa forces a gas to compress from a volume of 5.00 103 m3 to a volume of 2.50 103 m3.

m3. How much work is done on the gas, in Nm?

W = 380. Nm

34. A gas in a cylinder with a cross-sectional area of 60.0 cm2 holds the piston at a height of 5.00 cm when a force of 18.0 N is applied. Then, under the same force, the gas expands in a quasi-static process to a height of 7.50 cm. a. What is the gass original volume in m3? b. What is the original pressure on the gas in N/m2 (Pa)?
3000 N/m V = 3.00 10-4 m3

c. What is the final volume (in m3) of the gas?

V = 4.50 10-4 m3 W = 0.450 J

d. How much work does the gas do, in J? 35. A gas expands as Figure (a) shows. a. How much work does the system do in step 1?
W1 = 1.5 105 J W2 = 6.0 105 J

b. How much work does it do in step 2? c. How much work does it do overall?
Wtotal 900000 J ( 9.0 105 J)

(a) 36. Find the work done by a gas following one cycle as shown in Figure (b) for a. each step.
Step W1 = Step W2 = Step W3 = 1: 1.05 106 J 2: 0J 3: 6.0 105 J

b. the entire cycle.

Wtotal = 4.5 105 J 0.408 41%

37. A Carnot engine has a hot reservoir at a temperature of 490 K and a cold reservoir at a temperature of 290 K. What is its efficiency? 38. If the hot reservoir of a Carnot engine is at room temperature (24 C), what must be the temperature of the cold reservoir for the engine to have an efficiency of 50%?
-124.7 C

39. If a ships steam propulsion boilers produce 1.20 MW of thermal energy at full power, and the propulsion plant is 15% efficient, how much power is discharged to the sea via the seawater cooling system?
= 1.02 MW

-125 C
