(a)
Interpretation:
Calculate the pressure of the cylinder content and determine whether heat is enough to vaporize any of water.
Concept introduction:
The pressure of the system will be equal to the force (F) per area (A) on the piston plus the atmospheric pressure as given by the following equation.
(b)
Interpretation:
Estimate the final system temperature, the volumes of the liquid and vapor phases present at equilibrium and the vertical distance travelled by the piston.
Concept introduction:
The pressure of the system will be equal to the force (F) per area (A) on the piston plus the atmospheric pressure as given by the following equation.
(c)
Interpretation:
Calculate the upper limit on the temperature and state the condition of the bar.
Concept introduction:
The pressure of the system will be equal to the force (F) per area (A) on the piston plus the atmospheric pressure as given by the following equation.
