An electric motor drives a stirrer fitted with a horizontal cylinder. The cylinder of 40 cm diameter contains a fluid restrained by a frictionless piston. During the stirring of fluid for 15 min the piston moves outward slowly by a distance of 30 cm against the atmospheric pressure of 1 bar. The current supplied to the mo- or is 0.5 amp. from a 24-V lead-acid accumulator. If the conversion efficiency from lectrical work to mechanical work output is 90%, estimate the work done on the notor, stirrer and the atmosphere.
