The cylinder in the figure(Figure 1) has a moveable piston attached to a spring. The cylinder's cross-section area is 10 cm2, it contains 0.0055 mol of gas, and the spring constant is 1500 N/m. At 21 ∘C the spring is neither compressed nor stretched.
How far is the spring compressed if the gas temperature is raised to 140 ∘C?
The A and B tanks given in the figure are separated from each other by the closed valve between them. The water vapor in tank A has a volume of 0.2 m, a temperature of 150 ° C and a pressure of 100 kPa. Tank B is filled with saturated water vapor at a volume of 0.3 m and a pressure of 300 kPa. Then, the valve between the tanks is opened and the final pressure is 175 kPa as a result of the mixing of the fluids in the tanks with each other and the transfer of sufficient . According to this;
a) Determine the temperature (° C) and phase of the fluid in the final state.
b) The amount of heat transfer at the end of the process (kJ)

(b) Then the molecules collide with one another more often. (c) Internal friction makes the collisions inelastic. (d) Heat is produced in the collisions.
