Question 55 - The differential equation is 3 dy / dt + 2y = 1 with y(0) = 1. (a) The Laplace transformation, L for given terms are : L (dy / dt) = sY(s) - y(0), L(y) = Y(s), L(1) = 1 / s. Use such transformation to find Y(s). (b) The initial value theorem states that : When t approaches 0 for a function of y(t), it is equal to a function of sY(s) when s approaches infinity. Use the initial value theorem as a check to the answer found in part (a).

Answer / kang chuen tat (malaysia - pen

Answer 55 - (a) For the equation 3 dy / dt + 2y = 1, its Laplace transformation is 3 [ sY(s) - y(0) ] + 2Y(s) = 1 / s, 3 (sY - 1) + 2Y = 1 / s, 3sY - 3 + 2Y = 1 / s, 3sY + 2Y = 1 / s + 3, Y (3s + 2) = (1 + 3s) / s. Y = Y(s) = (1 + 3s) / [ s (3s + 2) ]. (b) Initial value theorem states that y(0) = sY(infinity), then 1 = s (1 + 3s) / [ s (3s + 2) ] = (1 + 3s) / (3s + 2) approaches 1 when the value of s approaches infinity. The checking is correct.

THERMODYNAMIC - EXAMPLE 10.2 : A cylinder with a movable piston contains 0.1 mole of a monoatomic ideal gas. The piston moves through state a, b and c. The heat Q, changes from state c to a is + 685 J. The work W, changes from state c to a is - 120 J. The work, W performed from state a to b then to c is 75 J. By using the first law of thermodynamic, U = Q + W where U is the internal energy : (a) Determine the change in internal energy between states a and c. (b) Is heat added or removed from the gas when the gas is taken along the path abc? (c) Calculate the heat added or removed when the gas is taken along the path abc?
