A piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.6 kg of water with a volume of 0.1 m3 . The mass of the piston is such that it maintains a constant pressure of 1000 kPa. The cylinder is connected through a valve to a supply line that carries steam at 5 MPa and 500 o C. Now the valve is opened and steam is allowed to flow slowly into the cylinder until the volume of the cylinder doubles and the temperature in the cylinder reaches 280 o C, at which point the valve is closed. The pressure remains constant during the process. Determine: (a) The mass of steam that has entered (in kg). (b) The amount of heat transfer (in kJ).

The passage that directs air to the lungs is called a. diaphragm. b. larynx. c. bronchi. d. pharynx.
