An insulated cylinder fitted with a movable piston to maintain constant pressure initially contains 100 g of ice at -10 C. Heat is supplied to the contents at a constant rate by a 100 W heater. Make a graph showing temperature of the cylinder contents as a function of time starting at t = 0, when the temperature is -10 C and ending when the temperature is 110 C. ( c = 2.0 kJ/ kg K for specific heat of ice from -10 to 0 C and of the steam from 100 to 110 C)

A 0.2 m3 piston-cylinder initially contains 400 K air. A heavy frictionless piston maintains a pressure of 500 kPa abs. Then, a weakness in the cylinder wall blows out and creates a hole. Air escapes through the hole until the piston drops far enough to cover the hole. At that point, the volume is half the initial volume. During this process, 75 kJ of heat is transferred to the 100 kPa, 300 K surroundings. Using Cp = 1.005 kJ/kg-K and...
