test 2.0 Flashcards
For heating a home, does electrical-resistance baseboard
heating or a heat pump use less electricity? Explain.

For a control volume at steady state, mass can accumulate
within the control volume.

Flow work is the work done on a flowing stream by a
paddle wheel or piston.

An open feedwater heater is a special type of a counterflow
heat exchanger.



An internal irreversibility within a gearbox is (a) chemical
reaction, (b) unrestrained expansion of a gas, (c) mixing, (d)
friction.



Referring to the list of Sec. 5.3.1, significant irreversibilities
present during operation of a household refrigerator include
(a) inelastic deformation, (b) chemical reaction, (c) heat transfer
through a finite temperature difference, (d) none of the above.

As velocity decreases in a diffuser, pressure decreases.

The maximum thermal efficiency of any power cycle
operating between hot and cold thermal reservoirs at 10008C
and 5008C, respectively, is 50%.

what is a property
a quantity is a property if, and only if, its change in value between two states is independent of the process linking the two states, we conclude that the integral represents the change in some property of the system
Where mass crosses the boundary of a control volume, the
accompanying energy transfer is accounted for by the
internal energy of the mass only.

A significant increase in pressure can be achieved by
introducing a restriction into a line through which a gas or
liquid flows.

entropy applies to any process between states
since entropy is a property, that value of entropy change applies to any process between the states – internally reversible or not
A cell phone initially has a fully charged battery. After a
period of cell phone use, the battery is recharged to its initial
state. The quantity of electricity to recharge the battery is
(a) less than, (b) equal to, (c) greater than the quantity
required to operate the phone. Explain.

The hot and cold streams of cross-flow heat exchangers
flow in the same direction.

When an isolated system undergoes a process, the values
of its energy and entropy can only increase or remain the
same.

A _____________ is a device that introduces a restriction
into a line to reduce the pressure of a gas or liquid.

The Clausius statement of the second law denies the
possibility of transferring energy by heat from a cooler to a
hotter body.



In this book the flow at control volume inlets and exits is
normally taken as one-dimensional.

An ideal gas in a piston-cylinder assembly expands
isothermally, doing work and receiving an equivalent amount
of energy by heat transfer from the surrounding atmosphere.
Is this process of the gas in violation of the Kelvin–Planck
statement of the second law? Explain.

System integration is the practice of combining components
to achieve an overall objective.
