The cylinder contains mw = 1.80 kg of water at just under 100°C. The piston has a radius of r = 6.35 cm, mass of mp = 2.70 kg, and initially rests on the surface of the water. The heater transfers energy to the water at the rate of 150 W. The latent heat of vaporization of water is Lvap = 2.26 ✕ 106 J/kg, and the specific heat of steam is csteam = 2,010 J/(kg ° C). The top of the piston is exposed to atmospheric pressure.

Here is the complete question.

The cylinder contains mw = 1.80 kg of water at just under 100°C. The piston has a radius of r = 6.35 cm, mass of mp = 2.70 kg, and initially rests on the surface of the water. The heater transfers energy to the water at the rate of 150 W. The latent heat of vaporization of water is Lvap = 2.26 ✕ 106 J/kg, and the specific heat of steam is csteam = 2,010 J/(kg ° C). The top of the piston is exposed to atmospheric pressure.

Once the water  begins  boiling, how fast does the piston rise ( in mm/s)?

thus, once the water begins boiling, the speed of the piston rise is 8.73  mm/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

1.80 kg

radius  r = 6.35 cm

2.70 kg

rate of energy transfer = 150 W

latent heat of vaporization of water

specific heat of steam is

From the given information;

the speed rise of the piston can be perceived to be of the same rate at which the height of the steam above the water is also increasing due to boiling.

Thus; volume of the gas  

Using the ideal gas law to replace the volume of the gas where the pressure and temperature are constant: we have;

However; the number of moles n in the mass of the gas to the molecular mass is ;

Replacing that into the above velocity formulae; we have:

where F  = PA and F is the product of atmospheric pressure and area of piston plus the weight of the piston; i.e

where;

Again;

i dont know if you cant find a way its best to actually add all of them start from 105 tho
