Thank you livioflores, but I would like if you could tell me the
precedence of this question, take for example from which book was
extracted from, or if there is a solution manual for that particular
question, let me give you more questions. I think these questions were
extracted from a book of thermodynamics, but I would like to know
which one, the name and the author and I would also like to know if
there is any solution manual available for that particular book over
the internet. Here is another question.
8.13 A cylinder fitted with a piston contains 3kg of water at 500kPa,
600C. The piston has a cross-section area of .1m^2 and is restrained
by a linear spring(force proportional to distance moved) with a spring
constant of 10KN/m. The system is allowed to cool until the pressure
inside drops to 150kPa, as heat transfers to the room at 20C.
Calculate the net change of entropy, system plus surroundings, for
this process.
Above is the question, but I don?t want the answer from that question.
I would like to know the original source of that question, take for
example from which thermodynamic book was extracted from and most
important if the manual of solution for that particular book is over
the internet available for me to purchase. The question above is from
chapter 8 and number 13 and the one that I mentioned before is from
chapter 8 number 11. Thank you
