Consider the piston-cylinder assembly containing 0.20 kg of pure wate. The cross-sectional area of the piston is 0.50 m2, and its initial height is 0.7172 m above the base of the cylinder. The initial pressure is 1.0 bar. A spring with a linear spring constant, k = 1.62 x 105 N/m is attached to the piston. Initially the spring exerts no force on the very thin piston. A block of mass m= 20,408 kg, is then placed on the piston, causing the gas to compress, until the forces again balance. During the compression process, 6.17 x 105 J/kg of work is done on the system .(a) Precisely draw the process on a P-v diagram. Draw the area that represents the work. (b) How much heat, in J/kg, is transferred during the process? h₁ = 0.7172 m m=20,408 kg F = -kx atm= 1 bar A = 0.5 m² m₁ = 0.2 kg State 1 H₂O Consider the piston-cylinder assembly containing 0.20 kg of pure wate.
