Textbook Question
Chapter 19.2, Problem 2R
A major hazard involved with water heaters is that they operate under whatever pressure the serving water utility supplies. Water stays liquid at temperatures higher than the normal boiling point of 212°F (100°C). If the high-temperature limit control failed to operate for whatever reason, should a pipe burst or a faucet be opened, the pressure would instantly drop to normal atmospheric pressure, causing the superheated water to turn into ______________ that could result in ______________. To prevent this from happening, water heaters are equipped with pressure/temperature relief valves.

First-order Low-pass RC Filter Analysis
The first-order low-pass RC filter shown in figure 1 below represents all voltages and currents in the time domain. It is of course
possible to solve for all circuit voltages using time domain differential equation techniques, but it is more efficient to convert the
circuit to its s-domain equivalent as shown in figure 2 and apply Laplace transform techniques.
