Question

2.44 As shown in Fig. P2.44, a gas contained within a piston-

cylinder assembly, initially at a volume of 0.1 m³, undergoes a constant

pressure expansion at 2 bar to a final volume of 0.12 m³, while being

slowly heated through the base. The change in internal energy of the

gas is 0.25 kJ. The piston and cylinder walls are fabricated from heat-

resistant material, and the piston moves smoothly in the cylinder. The

W/m² K, local atmospheric pressure is 1 bar.
