Atank with constant volume contains 2.27 kg of a mixture of water phases (liquid-vapor). in the initial state the temperature and the quality are 127 °c and 0.6, respectively. the mixture is heated until the temperature of 160 oc is reached. illustrate the process in a t-v diagram. then, determine (1) the mass of the vapor in kg at the initial state, (2) the final pressure in kpa.

An electric kettle is made out of stainless steel, weighs two pounds (when empty) and is equipped with a heating element that consumes 2 kw of electricity. assuming that the water and the kettle are at the same uniform temperature at any moment of time, calculate the shortest possible time to bring 2 quarts of water from room temperature to the onset of boiling
