Water initially at 300 kPa and 0.5 m^3/kg is contained in a piston-cylinder device fitted with stops so that the water supports the weight of the piston and the force of the atmosphere. The water is heated until it reaches the saturated vapor state and the piston rests against the stops. With the piston against the stops, the water is further heated until the pressure is 600 kPa. On the P-vP−v and T-vT−v diagrams, sketch, with respect to the saturation lines, the process curves passing through both the initial and final states of the water. Label the states on the process as 1, 2 and 3. On both the P-vP−v and T-vT−v diagrams, sketch the isotherms passing through the states and show their values, in ^\circ{} ∘ C, on the isotherms.

Tom is having a problem with his washing machine. he notices that the machine vibrates violently at a frequency of 1500 rpm due to an unknown rotating unbalance. the machine is mounted on 4 springs each having a stiffness of 10 kn/m. tom wishes to add an undamped vibration absorber attached by a spring under the machine the machine working frequency ranges between 800 rpm to 2000 rpm and its total mass while loaded is assumed to be 80 kg. a) what should be the mass of the absorber added to the machine so that the natural frequency falls outside the working range? b) after a first trial of an absorber using a mass of 35 kg, the amplitude of the oscillation was found to be 10 cm. what is the value of the rotating unbalance? c) using me-3.5 kg.m, find the optimal absorber (by minimizing its mass). what would be the amplitude of the oscillation of the absorber?
