2. A piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.8 kg of nitrogen gas at 160 kPa and 240 °C. The nitrogen gas is now expanded to a pressure of 100 kPa isothermally. Determine the work boundary during this process. 3. A frictionless piston-cylinder device contains 6 kg vapor at 600 kPa and 400 °C. When heat is transferred to the system, the vapor temperature is increasing up to 500 °C. Calculate the work net during this heat transfer process.

Air is contained in a vertical piston–cylinder assembly fitted with an electrical resistor. The atmosphere exerts a pressure of 101.325 kPa on the top of the piston, which has a mass of 50 kg and a face area of 0.10 m 2 . Electric current passes through the resistor, and the volume of the air slowly increases by 2 ft3 while its pressure remains constant. The mass of the air is 0.32 kg, and its specific internal energy increases by 20 Btu/lb. The air and piston are at rest initially and finally. The piston–cylinder material is a ceramic composite and thus a good insulator. Friction between the piston and cylinder wall can be ignored, and the local acceleration of gravity is g = 32.0 ft/s2 Determine the heat transfer from the resistor to the air, in Btu, for a system consisting of (a) the air alone, (b) the air and the piston. Also draw the schematic diagram. Hint: Refer to example
