An elastic bar of length L = 1m and cross section A = 1cm2 spins with
angular velocity ω about an axis, as shown in the figure below. The
radial acceleration at a generic point x along the bar is a(x) = ω2x,
where ω= 100rad/s is the angular velocity. The bar is pinned on the
rotation axis at x = 0. A mass M = 1kg is attached to the right end of
the bar. Due to the radial acceleration, the bar stretches along x with
displacement function u(x). The displacement u(x) solves the BVP
(strong form) sketched below:

Heat is now transferred to the water, causing part of it to evaporate and expand. When the volume reaches 0.26 m3, the piston reaches a linear spring whose spring constant is 100 kN/m. More heat is transferred to the water until the piston rises 20 cm more. NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part.

The steam radiator transfers heat at a rate of 10,000 kJ/h, and a 100-W fan is used to distribute the warm air in the room. The rate of heat loss from the room is estimated to be about 5000 kJ/h. If the initial temperature of the room air is 10°C, determine how long it will take for the air temperature to rise to 25°C. Assume constant specific heats at room temperature. The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kPa·m3/kg·K (Table A-1). Also, cv = 0.718 kJ/kg·K for air at room temperature (Table A-2). Steam enters the radiator system through an inlet outside the room and leaves the system through an outlet on the same side of the room. The fan is labeled as W sub p w. The heat is given off by the whole system consisting of room, radiator and fan at the rate of 5000 kilojoules per hour.
