Answer:
Hi
Final temperature = 250.11 °C
Final volume = 0,1 m3.
Process work = 0
Explanation:
The specific volume in the initial state is: v = 0.1m3/2 kg = 0.05 m3/kg.
This volume is located between the volumes as saturated liquid and saturated steam at 20 °C. For this reason the water is initially in a liquid vapor mixture. As the piston was blocked the volume remains constant and the process is isometric, also known as isocoric process, so the final temperature will be the water temperature at a saturated steam of v=0.05m3/kg, which is obtained by using steam tables for water, by linear interpolation. As follows, using table A-4 of the Cengel book 7th Edition:
v=0.05 m3/kg
v1=0.057061 m3/kg
T1=242.56°C
v2=0.049779 m3/kg
T2=250.35°C
T=
The process work is zero because there is no change in volume during heating:
W=PxΔv=Px0=0
where
W=process work
P=pressure
Δv=change of volume, is zero because the piston was blocked so the volume remains constant.

Answer:
Explanation:
The energy of Mass-Spring System the sum of the potential energy of the block plus the kinetic energy of the block:
Where:
There are two cases, the first case is when the spring is compressed to its maximum value, in this case the value of the kinetic energy is zero, since there is no speed, so:
The second case is when the block passes through its equilibrium position, in this case the elastic potential energy is zero since , so:
Now, let's find the energy of the system when the block is replaced by one whose mass is twice the mass of the original block using the previous data:
Where in this case:
Therefore:
