Quiz #3

1) 50 pts - A group of 50 mechanical engineers had a seminar in a

conference room which is 12 m wide by 10 m long and a ceiling
height of 3 m. The room is completed sealed off and well
insulated. Each person is estimated to give off 150 kcal per hour
of heat and occupies a volume of 0.20 m3. The room has an initial
pressure of 101.3 kPa and temperature of 16oC. Calculate the room
temperature after 10 minutes. 1 BTU = 252 cal.
2) 25 pts - A cylindrical pressure vessel in a sugar milling plant
contains air at a pressure of 140 kPag and temperature of 20oC.
Find the final gauge pressure if the air is heated to 40oC. Take
the atmospheric pressure as 759 mmHg.
3) 25 pts - A tank contains 80 ft3 of air at a pressure of 350 psi.
If the air is cooled until its pressure and temperature decrease
to 200 psi and 70oF respectively, how much is the change in
internal energy in BTU?
4) 20 pts – Convert the following values.
a. 45 kW-hr is equal to ____ BTU.
b. 15 bars is equal to ___ kgf/cm2.
c. 16oR is equal to ____ oK.
d. 60 kph is equal to ____ fps.
