1kg steam at pressure of 1 bar, contained in a cylinder of cross-sectional area 1.69 square meters, freely supports a movable, leakproof cover of fixed weight. the cylinder is heated externally to raise the temperature of the steam from 100 °cto 300 °c. assuming no heat loss to the environment, calculate the amount of heat required for this process.

Ariver flows from north to south at 8 km/h. a boat is to cross this river from west to east at a speed of 20 km/h (speed of the boat with respect to the earth/ground). at what angle (in degrees) must the boat be pointed upstream such that it will proceed directly across the river (hint: find the speed of the boat with respect to water/river)? a 288 b. 21.8 c. 326 d. 30.2
