Paper Problem Set 9 due Thurs 12 May 05

1. Write out the solution to #5 from WebAssign Problem Set 9.0 thermo 2_043.

2. A process is shown for a gas. The pressure varies like P = k / V2 where k = 6.4 x 104 Pa•m6. At point A the volume is 0.20 m3.
(a) Find the pressure at point A.
(b) Find the pressure at point B where the volume is 0.80 m3.
(c) Find the work done as the gas expands from A to B.
(d) The internal energy is known to decrease by 80 kJ as the gas goes from A to B. What heat is added to the system?
