A certain balloon maintains an internal ...

A certain balloon maintains an internal gas pressure of `P_(0) = 100 k Pa` until the volume reaches `V_(0) = 20 m^(3)`. Beyond a volume of `20 m^(3)`, the internal pressure varies as `P = P_(0) + 2 k (V - V_(0))^(2)` where `P` is in kPa. `V` is in `m^(3)` and `k` is a constant `(k = 1 kPa//m^(3))`. Initially the balloon contains helium gas at `20^(@)C`, 100 kPa with a `15 m^(3)` volume. The balloon is then heated until the volume becomes `25 m^(3)` and the pressure is 150 kPa. Assume ideal gas behavior for helium. The work done by the balloon for the entire process in kJ is

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the work done by the balloon during the heating process as it expands from an initial volume of 15 m³ to a final volume of 25 m³. The work done can be calculated in two parts: from 15 m³ to 20 m³ where the pressure is constant, and from 20 m³ to 25 m³ where the pressure varies according to the given equation. ### Step 1: Calculate Work Done from 15 m³ to 20 m³ The pressure \( P_0 \) is constant at 100 kPa during this segment. The work done \( W_1 \) can be calculated using the formula: \[ W_1 = P_0 \int_{V_1}^{V_2} dV = P_0 (V_2 - V_1) \] Where: - \( P_0 = 100 \, \text{kPa} = 100 \times 10^3 \, \text{Pa} \) - \( V_1 = 15 \, \text{m}^3 \) - \( V_2 = 20 \, \text{m}^3 \) Substituting the values: \[ W_1 = 100 \times 10^3 \times (20 - 15) = 100 \times 10^3 \times 5 = 500 \times 10^3 \, \text{J} = 500 \, \text{kJ} \] ### Step 2: Calculate Work Done from 20 m³ to 25 m³ In this segment, the pressure varies according to the equation: \[ P = P_0 + 2k(V - V_0)^2 \] Where: - \( P_0 = 100 \, \text{kPa} \) - \( k = 1 \, \text{kPa/m}^3 \) - \( V_0 = 20 \, \text{m}^3 \) The work done \( W_2 \) can be calculated using: \[ W_2 = \int_{V_2}^{V_3} P \, dV = \int_{20}^{25} \left(100 + 2 \times 1 \times (V - 20)^2\right) dV \] Calculating the integral: \[ W_2 = \int_{20}^{25} \left(100 + 2(V - 20)^2\right) dV \] This can be split into two integrals: \[ W_2 = \int_{20}^{25} 100 \, dV + \int_{20}^{25} 2(V - 20)^2 \, dV \] Calculating the first integral: \[ \int_{20}^{25} 100 \, dV = 100 \times (25 - 20) = 500 \, \text{J} \] Calculating the second integral: Let \( u = V - 20 \), then \( dV = du \) and the limits change from \( 0 \) to \( 5 \): \[ \int_{0}^{5} 2u^2 \, du = 2 \left[\frac{u^3}{3}\right]_{0}^{5} = 2 \left[\frac{5^3}{3} - 0\right] = 2 \left[\frac{125}{3}\right] = \frac{250}{3} \, \text{J} \] Now, substituting back into \( W_2 \): \[ W_2 = 500 + \frac{250}{3} \, \text{J} = \frac{1500 + 250}{3} = \frac{1750}{3} \, \text{J} \] ### Step 3: Total Work Done Now, we can find the total work done \( W \): \[ W = W_1 + W_2 = 500 \, \text{kJ} + \frac{1750}{3} \, \text{J} \times \frac{1 \, \text{kJ}}{1000 \, \text{J}} = 500 + \frac{1.75}{3} \, \text{kJ} \] Calculating \( \frac{1.75}{3} \): \[ \frac{1.75}{3} \approx 0.5833 \, \text{kJ} \] So, \[ W \approx 500 + 0.5833 \approx 500.5833 \, \text{kJ} \] ### Final Answer The total work done by the balloon for the entire process is approximately: \[ \boxed{500.58 \, \text{kJ}} \]
