Which one of the following statements is FALSE?

Your answerChoose one option.

For an ideal gas, the enthalpy is independent of pressure.

For a real gas going through an adiabatic reversible process, the process equation is given by

, where P is the pressure, V is the volume and

is the ratio of the specific heats of the gas at constant pressure and constant volume.

For an ideal gas undergoing a reversible polytropic process

, the equation connecting the pressure, volume and temperature of the gas at any point along the process is

, where

is the gas constant and

is the mass of the gas.

Any real gas behaves as an ideal gas at sufficiently low pressure or sufficiently high temperature.

Consider a fully adiabatic piston-cylinder arrangement as shown in the figure. The piston is massless and cross-sectional area of the cylinder is A. The fluid inside the cylinder is air (considered as a perfect gas), with

being the ratio of the specific heat at constant pressure to the specific heat at constant volume for air. The piston is initially located at a position

. The initial pressure of the air inside the cylinder is

, where

is the atmospheric pressure. The stop

is instantaneously removed and the piston moves to the position

, where the equilibrium pressure of air inside the cylinder is

What is the work done by the piston on the atmosphere during this process?

In an ideal orthogonal cutting experiment (see figure), the cutting speed V is 1 m/s, the rake angle of the tool

, and the shear angle,

, is known to be

Applying the ideal orthogonal cutting model, consider two shear planes PQ and RS close to each other. As they approach the thin shear zone (shown as a thick line in the figure), plane RS gets sheared with respect to PQ (point R1 shears to R2, and S1 shears to S2).

Assuming that the perpendicular distance between PQ and RS is

m, what is the value of shear strain rate (in s

) that the material undergoes at the shear zone?

A CNC machine has one of its linear positioning axes as shown in the figure, consisting of a motor rotating a lead screw, which in turn moves a nut horizontally on which a table is mounted. The motor moves in discrete rotational steps of 50 steps per revolution. The pitch of the screw is 5 mm and the total horizontal traverse length of the table is 100 mm. What is the total number of controllable locations at which the table can be positioned on this axis?
