Marcie observes a boat floating on water and tries to explain to her mother why the boat is not moving. Which of the following explanations is the best to use? A. The force of gravity acting on the boat is the same as the force of the water pushing up. This means the forces acting on the boat are balanced. B. The force of gravity acting on the boat is the same as the force of the water pushing up. C. This means the forces are unbalanced. The force of the water pushing up on the boat is greater than the force of gravity pulling the boat down. This means the forces acting on the boat are balanced. D. The force of the water pushing up on the boat and the force of the boat pushing itself up allows the boat to float. The two forces are balanced.

1kg of water contained in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes two processes in series from an initial state where the pressure is 3.0 bar and the temperature is 150°c process 1-2: the water is compressed isothermally to a volume of 0.25 m^3 with 120 kj of work being done to the system. process 2-3: the water is heated at constant volume to a final pressure of 10 bar. a. find the change in internal energy for the system. b. calculate the amount of heat transferred, in kj. c. sketch both processes on a t-v diagram. (196.33 kj/kg, 76.33 kj)
