Steam at 75 kPa and 13 percent quality is contained in a spring-loaded piston-cylinder device, as shown in the figure, with an initial volume of 5.28 m^3. Steam is now heated until its volume is 13.20 m^3 and its pressure is 300 kPa. Determine the heat transferred to and the work produced by the steam during this process.
