How to find initial velocity without acceleration

2kg of refrigerant 134a undergoes a polytropic process in a piston-cylinder assembly from an initial state of saturated vapor at 2 bar to a final state of 12 bar, 80 degree c. a)determine the work for the process in kj. b)sketch the process on a p-v diagram.

If an astronaut takes an object to the moon the following is true (choose only one). a the mass will change but the weight will be the same. b both the mass and the weight of the object will be the same. c the weight will change but the mass will be the same. d both the mass and the weight of the object will change.

An insulated 40 ft^3 rigid tank contains air at 50 psia and 120°f. a valve connected to the tank is now opened, and air is allowed to escape until the pressure inside drops to 25 psia. the air temperature during this process is kept constant by an electric resistance heater placed in the tank. determine the electrical work done during this process.
