a) 15 J
b) 20 J
c) 25 J
d) 30 J
View answer
Explanation: CS = 10 + 25*0.2 = 15 J.
11. Which of the following is the summation of a volume of 1 Kg of dry air and the water vapor in the air?
a) Humid volume
b) Partial volume
c) Dry volume
d) None of the mentioned
View answer
Explanation: Humid volume is the summation of a volume of 1 Kg of dry air and the water vapor in the air.
12. What is the humid volume of the system at 100oF with humidity 20%?
a) 18.6 ft3/lb
b) 22.4 ft3/lb
c) 26.5 ft3/lb
d) 29.4 ft3/lb
View answer
Explanation: V = (0.73T + 336)(1/29 + H/18) = (0.73*100 + 336)(1/29 + 0.2/18) = 18.6 ft3/lb.
13. What is the humid volume of the system at 200oF with humidity 40%?
a) 14.2 ft3/lb
b) 23.4 ft3/lb
c) 29.5 ft3/lb
d) 31.6 ft3/lb
View answer
Explanation: V = (0.73*200 + 336)(1/29 + 0.4/18) = 31.6 ft3/lb.
14. What is the humid volume of the system at 150oF with humidity 50%?
a) 12.4 ft3/lb
b) 19.5 ft3/lb
c) 27.7 ft3/lb
d) 36.1 ft3/lb
View answer
Explanation: V = (0.73*150 + 336)(1/29 + 0.5/18) = 27.7 ft3/lb.
