- A weighted piston (total mass of 16.8 kg), resting on stops in a cylinder (radius of 0.05 m) divides a container into two regions. 0.075 kg of saturated liquid water at 50 °C is contained beneath the piston. The rest of the cylinder and container is evacuated. Heat is applied to the water until the piston is lifted off of the stops and moved a distance (y) of 0.6 m. As the piston reaches the mouth of the cylinder, the hermetic seal is broken and the cylinder contents can now expand to fill the remainder of the evacuated space. At this instant, no additional heat is added to or removed from the system. When the system fully equilibrates, its absolute pressure is measured to be 0.01 MPa. vacuum y (cc) BY-NC-SA Niel Crews. 2013 a) What is the state of the water when the piston begins to rise off of the stops? compressed liquid b) What is the water temperature when the piston reaches the mouth of the cylinder? 61.02432 °C c) What is the final volume of the water (after the seal is broken)?…arrow_forwardA cylindrical vessel with a diameter of 8 inches and 5 feet long contained acetylene at 300 psi gauge and 82°F.

- You wish to buy a new freezer for your basement. The primary use of the freezer will be to prepare ice for family parties. You have a very large family, with grandparents, parents, sisters, brothers, uncles, aunts, cousins, nephews, nieces, and grandchildren. As a result, family birthday parties are held every couple of weeks, and you need lots of ice for drinks. You want the freezer to convert 10.6 kg of water at 21.5°C to 10.6 kg of ice at −8.7°C in 2.00 h. But, in order to keep your electric bill down, you want the power rating of the freezer to stay below 100 W. From these requirements, you determine the minimum COP of the freezer that will satisfy your needs. (Consider that the specific heat of water is 4,186 J/(kg · °C), the specific heat of ice is 2,090 J/(kg · °C), the latent heat of fusion of water is 3.33 ✕ 105 J/kg, and the latent heat of vaporization of water is 2.26 ✕ 106 J/kg.)arrow_forwardA vertically arranged piston-cylinder assembly with a mass and area of a piston given as 55 kg and 0.011 m?, respectively is filled with 3.3 g of carbon dioxide (CO2).
