10 kg gas is contained in a vertical piston-cylinder assembly by a piston weighing 40 Kg and having a face
area of 60 cm². The atmosphere exerts a pressure of 101.3 kPa on the top of the piston. An electrical resistor
transfers energy to the gas in the amount of 5.3 kJ as the elevation of the piston increases by 0.6 m. The
piston and cylinder are poor thermal conductors and friction can be neglected.
1. Sketch a figure of the process
2. Determine the change in internal energy of the gas, in kJ, assuming it is the only significant internal
energy change of any component present.

A gas is contained in a vertical piston-cylinder assembly by a piston with a face area of 50 in² and weight of 100 lbf. The atmosphere
exerts a pressure of 14.7 lb-/in² on top of the piston. A paddle wheel transfers 3 Btu of energy to the gas during a process in which the
elevation of the piston increases slowly by 1 ft. The piston and cylinder are poor thermal conductors, and friction between the piston
and cylinder can be neglected.
