An adiabatic piston-cylinder device equipped with a spring maintains the pressure inside

An adiabatic piston-cylinder device equipped with a spring maintains the pressure inside at 300 kPa when the volume is 0, and 3000 kPa when the volume is 5 m3. The device is connected to an air supply line maintained at 2000 kPa and 327C, and initially the volume is 0. Determine the final T (and quality if appropriate) when valve is opened and steam in the line is allowed to enter the cylinder until the pressure inside matches that in the line. Also determine the total work produced during this adiabatic filling process. Assume constant specific heats. Fiaton Cylinder Valve Supply ine
