Question:

A cylinder piston assembly contains \(2.5 \mathrm{~kg}\) of water inside it at a temperature of \(25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). The cylinder is well insulated and its area of cross-section is \(0.45 \mathrm{~m}\). A pressure equivalent of 6 bar is applied on water by the piston. Heat is supplied to cylinder by an electric heater at the rate of \(1.2 \mathrm{~kW}\). Calculate the time elapsed if the piston rises through a distance of \(1.6 \mathrm{~m}\). Also calculate the quality of steam.
