A pressure cooker cooks a lot faster than an ordinary pan by maintaining a higher pressure and temperature inside. The lid of a pressure cooker is well sealed, and steam can escape only through an opening in the middle of the lid. The pressure relief valve consists of a spring-loaded disk that is positioned over this opening. Consider that a certain portion of a pressure cooker is initially filled with water and put on top of a stove (State - 1). Heat is added just until the pressure relief valve opens (State 2). Heat continues to be added until all of the liquid disappears (State 3).

a pressure cooker is well sealed, and steam can escape only through
