Chapter 3 Fossil Fuel Resources and Use 3.1 A person's primary energy needs are supplied exclusively by burning oil (with an energy content of 3.85 × 107 J/L). If a person's average power consumption is 12 kW, how long would it take that person to use one barrel of oil (158.97 liters)? Solution The power 12 kW is the same as energy consumed at a rate of 12,000 J/s. Thus the amount of oil required per second is (12,000 J/s)/(3.85 × 107 J/L) = 3.12 × 10–4 L/s. Thus to consume...

Draw a Carnot cycle diagram and describe the event occurring at each step - ANSWER- I) Reversible Isothermal Expansion II) Reversible Adiabatic Expansion III) Reversible Isothermal Compression IV) Reversible Adiabatic Compression The boiling point of water at a pressure of 50 atm is 538 K. Compare the theoretical efficiencies of a steam engine operating between: 1) The boiling point of water at 1 atm 2) 50 atm, assuming the temperature of the sink to be 308 K - ANSWER- 1) P(1)=1 atm T(C...

Asked to find volumetric flow rate of gas - what equation could you use? Correct Answer: PV=mRT - Pv=RT - V(rate) = m(rate)*R*T/P====remember v=V(rate)/m(rate) How do you calculate feet of air from inches of H20? Correct Answer: Convert inches of H20 to feet of H20 and then multiply by (density water/density air) - counterintuitive. What is a good way of manipulating the equation for velocity through a pitot tube in handbook? Correct Answer: v=(2g(p0-p1/y))^1/2 can be changed to v= (2gh)1...
