An insulated cylinder fitted with a movable piston to maintain constant pressure initially contains 100 g of ice at -10 C. Heat is supplied to the contents at a constant rate by a 100 W heater. Make a graph showing temperature of the cylinder contents as a function of time starting at t = 0, when the temperature is -10 C and ending when the temperature is 110 C. Let c = 2.0 kJ/kg K for specific heat of ice from -10 to 0 C and of the steam from 100 to 110 C. The specific heat of water between 0 C and 100 C is c = 4.18 X 103 J/kg K. The value of Lv = 2257 X 103 J/ kg and Lf = 333.5 X 103 J/kg

A cylinder fitted with a piston has an initial volume of 0.1 m3 and contains nitrogen at 150 kPa, 25 0C. The piston is moved, compressing the nitrogen until the pressure is 1 MPa and the temperature is 150 0C. During this compression process heat is transferred from the nitrogen, and the work done on the nitrogen is 20 kJ. Determine the amount of this heat transfer.
