A 5-kg saturated liquid water contained in a piston-cylinder arrangement at 200 kPa is heated by passing a current of 8 A through an electric resistance heater kept within the cylinder for 46 min. Water is stirred by a paddle wheel which does a work of 500 kJ. If one-half of the liquid is evaporated at constant pressure, what is the voltage of the electric source?
2) Two glass bulbs, one on the left with a volume of 2 liters and the other on the right with avolume of 6 liters, are connected to one another by a thin tube that is initially closed by astopcock. The bulb on the left has 0.1 moles of ideal gas, and the bulb on the right isevacuated. The system is in thermal equilibrium with the surroundings at 300K. When thestopcock is opened, the gas flows out to fill both bulbs. Calculate A for this process. If wewere to insert a propeller to extract work as the gas flows from left to right, what is themaximum amount of work that we could possibly extract?
Mr Chua experimented on water movement within a rigid tank. The rigid tank isdivided into two equal parts by a partition. Initially, one side of the tank contains 5.0kg of water at 200 kPa and 25ºC, and the other side is empty. The partition is thenremoved, and the water expands into the entire tank. The water is allowed toexchange heat with its surroundings until the temperature in the tank returns to theinitial value of 25ºC. Determine:a) the volume of the tank.b) the final pressure of the tank.
Ms Png works on a piston-cylinder system which contains 0.05 m3 of nitrogen gasinitially at 200 kPa. At this state, a linear spring that has a spring constant of 150kN/m is touching the piston, but no force is exerting on it. Heat is then transferredto the nitrogen gas, causing the piston to rise and to compress the spring until thevolume inside the cylinder increases to 0.25 m3.a) Determine the final pressure inside the cylinder.b) Sketch the system on a P – V diagram.c) Calculate the total work done of the system.d) Deduce the work done against the spring to compress it.Given cross-sectional area of the piston = 0.25 m2Force applied by linear spring, F = kxk = spring constantx = displacement of the piston/spring
A frictionless piston–cylinder device, shown in initially contains 0.01 m3 of argon gas at 400 K and 350 kPa. Heat is now transferred to the argon from a furnace at 1200 K, and the argon expands isothermally until its volume is doubled. No heat transfer takes place between the argon and the surrounding atmospheric air, which is at 300 K and 100 kPa. Determine the useful work output.
A piston–cylinder device, initially containing 0.25-kg steam at 3.5 MPa, is superheated by 4°C, i.e., the saturation temperature is raised by 4°C. Afterwards, the steam loses heat to the surroundings such that the piston moves down, hitting the stops; the cylinder contains saturated liquid water at this point. Hint: what is the type of boundary work done here? Is the work done by or done on the system? The cooling continues until the cylinder contains water at 205°C. Determine (a) the final pressure, in kPa, (b) the qualityat the final state, (b) the boundary work from state 1 to state 2, in kJ, (c) the amount of heat transferred when the piston first hits the stops, in kJ, (d) and the total amount of heat transferred for the system, in kJ. Is this heat added to or removed from the system?
Air is contained in a piston-cylinder arrangement with an initial volume of 0.02 m³ and at an initial temperature of 77°C. In this state, a manometer installed in the system is 400 kPa. Heat is added in the amount of 42 kJ and work is done by a paddle wheel until the temperature reaches 527°C. If the pressure is kept constant, how much work of the paddle wheel should be added to the gas? Consider the properties of the gas as constants; take the system is well thermally insulated.

I just need the drawing of both figure, no need solution. 1. A piston–cylinder device initially contains 0.07 m3 of nitrogen gas at 130kPaa and 1800C. The nitrogen is now expanded to a pressure of 80kPaa polytropically with a polytropic exponent whose value is equal to the specific heat ratio. Determine the final temperature ( 0C) and the boundary work (kJ) done during this process. 2. At a certain process, the specific heat at polytropic process of air is 0.3075kJ/kg- k. Under the same process, air initially at STP is being compressed until the pressure becomes 200kPaa. Determine the final temperature (0C) of air and the heat transferred during compression (kJ/kg).
Initially, a rigid tank contains 500L of water at 300°C. By volume, the tank contains 60% liquid and 40% vapor. At the bottom of the tank, as shown, a valve is opened and half of the mass of water is withdrawn which is in the liquid phase. Heat transfer takes place such that the temperature within the tank is constant. Determine the heat transfer in kJ required to withdraw half of its mass and maintain its temperature.
