The switch in the circuit shown below has been closed for a long time before it is opened at t = 0. Find the voltage v(t) across the capacitor for t ? 0. Assume R1 = 8 k?, R2 = 24 k?, R3 = 3 k?, Is = 0.5 mA, Vs = 3.2 V, C = 0.05 ?F.


v(0) = V0 = Is ×(R1 || R2) + Vs×R2/(R1 + R2) = 5.4 V
v(?) = Vinf = Vs×R2/(R1 + R2) = 2.4 V
Req = R3 + (R1 || R2) = 9 k?
? = ReqC = 0.00045 s
v(t) = [Vinf + (V0 - Vinf)e-2222.2222t] u(t) = [2.4 + (5.4 - 2.4)e-2222.2222t] u(t) = [2.4 + 3e-2222.2222t] u(t) V

An insulated compressor uses 25 hp of power to compress air from 14.7 psia to 80 psia. The air enters at 75oF, and the volumetric flow rate at the inlet is 2.50 ft3/s. Determine the temperature of the air exiting the compressor.

Given: P1 = 14.7 psia; T1 = 75oF; P2 = 80 psia; W?= ?25 hp=?17.67 Btu/s; V?= 2.50 ft3/s; Air (Take State 1 as the inlet, State 2 as the outlet.) Assume: Q?=0 (insulated). For a compressor, assume steady-state, steady-flow, single-inlet, single-outlet flow, with ?KE = ?PE = 0
