ME-1101 Thermodynamics

Jul – Nov 2015


Tutorial – 1

1. Explain in your own words, the terms System, Property, State and Process

2. Classify the following entities as system, control volume or neither:


(a) Contents of a closed flask, (b) air inside a tyre being inflated, (c) sand in a sand clock,
(d) Air conditioner, (e) A spring in a machine.

3. Classify the following quantities as extensive or intensive:


(a) P, (b) T, (c) V , (d) E + PV, (e) PT/V, (f) P/T, (g) PV/T2

4. Discuss the path independence of the following


quantities, for the paths A-B-C, A-D-C, and A-C: D (1, 3) C (2, 3)
C C C C

P (bar)
(i)  pdV , (ii)  Vdp , (iii)  pdV  Vdp , (iv)  pdV  Vdp
A A A A

5. Which among the following integrals require the path A (1, 2) B (2, 2)
and limits for integration?
(i) sin x, (ii) tan x, (iii) log x, (iv) exp(x2)
V (m3)
RT
6. If   f (T ) dT  dV , is  a property?
V

7. A cylinder of 25.25 cm dia in which a


piston is retained by a spring contains 0.01
m3 of air. A mercury manometer connected to
the cylinder initially reads as shown in the
figure. The air now heated steadily until the
piston rises slowly a distance of 20 cm. At
any instant during this process, the bottom
surface of the piston and the mercury
meniscus in the open limb are at the same
level. Assume that the weight of the piston is
negligible and that the density of mercury is
13600 kg/m3 and that the atmospheric Air 10 cm
pressure is 1 bar. Find (a) the initial and the
final pressures of the air in the cylinder and
(b) the relation between the pressure p and
the volume V of the air.
