A piston held by a pin in an insulated cylinder, shown in Fig. P5.130 contains 2 kg

Question:

A piston held by a pin in an insulated cylinder, shown in Fig. P5.130 contains 2 kg water at 100°C, quality 98%. The piston has a mass of 102 kg, with cross-sectional area of 100 cm2, and the ambient pressure is 100 kPa. The pin is released, which allows the piston to move. Determine the final state of the water, assuming the process to be adiabatic.
