Question

A piston/cylinder assembly contains 1 kg of liquid water at 20 deg C and300 kPa. A linear spring is mounted on the piston such that when the water is heated,

the pressure reaches 3 MPa with a volume of 0.1 m³. 1. Determine the final temperature of the water. 2. Is it appropriate to use the ideal gas law during this process?Justify your answer. 3. Sketch the process on a T-v diagram 4. Sketch the process on a P-v diagram 5. Determine the work that is done during this process. 6. Is this work done on the water? Or by the water on the piston?
