A piston has an external pressure of 13.0 ATM How much work has been done if the cylinder goes from a volume of 0.180 liters to 0.550 liters?

work = pressure x change in volume or w = P∆Vw = (8.00 atm)(0.610-0.170 L) = 8.00 * 0.440 = 3.52 atm-L
and 1 atm-L = 101.325 Joules, thus...
3.52 atm-L x 101.325 J/atm-L = 356.664 Joules = 357 Joules (3 significant figures)

A chemical reaction takes place 100 cm2 a piston is pushed out through 12 cm against an external pressure of 658 torr What is the t is the value for w for this reactionSign does matter in Joule?
I believe the answer to a chemical reaction taking place with 100 cm2 and a piston is pushed out through 12 cm against an external pressure of 658 torr, the value of w is 175.465 joules.
What does lifting a piston on a cylinder of a gas show?
increases,the volume increases
Why does applying pressure help in the liquefaction of gases?
The physical state of matter can also be changed by changing the pressure. In other words, the physical state of matter can also be changed by increasing pressure or decreasing pressure. For example, gases can be changed into liquids by increasing the pressure (accompanied by lowering of temperature). There is a lot of space between the particles of a gas. We can reduce the spaces between the particles by enclosing it in a cylinder and compressing it by pushing in the piston.
A piston in an engine compresses the gas into a small volume What is the pressure?
The pressure is higher than it was at first. A measurement cannot be given from these details.
What are the parts of a gas cylinder?
A cylinder is a basic geometric three dimensional figure. The base is a circle. A cylinder can be described as an enclosed tube. It cannot be classified as a polygon since all of the sides are not segments.
How do you convert atmosphere.liter into joule?
A piston has an external pressure of 10.0 . How much work has been done if the cylinder goes from a volume of 0.170 liters to 0.460 liters.
How are internal and external combustion different?
In terms of engines, an external combustion engine such as a steam engine burns fuel outside of the pressure cylinder used to drive the piston. An internal combustion engine such as a petrol or diesel engine burns the fuel inside the pressure cylinder used to drive the piston.
Difference between internal combustion engines and steam engines?
Internal combustion engine is where the fuel is ignited in the cylinder to make the piston move, petrol or diesel. A steam engine has an external pressure vessel to supply the steam to the cylinder to push the piston. the is no combustion in the engine as such.
Is piston cylinder process is constant pressure process or constan volume process?
A piston cylinder process actually includes two processes. The gas inside the piston undergoes both the constant pressure process and the contant volume process.
If a Master Cylinder piston applies pressure to a brake piston that has twice as much square area what will be the Force from the second piston?
Twice as much
Why piston rings are too loos on piston?
gas pressure has to get round the back of the ring to force it against the cylinder wall
How do you calculate which size cylinder bore is required for a hydraulic power pack?
First you need to know what force is required. The pressure the cylinder is going to work at. From this you can wok out the area of the piston and then the diameter of the piston. Force = Pressure x Area
What is a 2.0 liter engine?
A 2.0 liter engine means that the total volume of all the cylinders is 2.0 liters, or a different way to put it, a 4 cylinder that is a 2.0 liter has 0.5 liters of volume from when the piston is at the top of the cylinder to when it's at the bottom of the cylinder.
How are internal combustion engines and external combustion engines alike?
Essentially, they are the same, pressurised gas in a closed cylinder forcing a piston along which turns a crank via a con rod converting linear to rotary force. The main difference is how the pressurised gas is delivered: In an internal combustion engine, fuel and air are sucked into the cylinder, valves are closed, fuel/Air is ignited, combustion takes place, heat makes pressure. So the pressure by combustion is created inside the cylinder (internally) In an external combustion engine, the gas is pressurised prior to entering the cylinder, in the case of a (piston) steam engine, water is boiled (by coal or other fuel combustion) in a closed container (boiler) to create pressurised steam, which is then delivered to the cylinder under pressure. So the pressure by combustion is created outside the cylinder (externally)
If the volume of a cylinder-piston arrangement containing a gas is increased by a factor of eight and the temperature is doubled the pressure inside the piston will by a factor of?
Decrease, 4
What is engine force?
pressure in cylinder over piston area = force force over stroke = work
Working peinciple pf hydrualic cylinder?
Hydraulic fluid pressure cylinder with one hand and moving the piston to produce work.
