Nitrogen in a horizontal piston-cylinder assembly expands from an initial volume of 0.10 m3 to a final volume of 0.5 m3 as the gas is heated for 5 minutes by an electrical resistance heater consuming 1 kW of electric power. If the pressure remains constant at 150 kPa, and 70 kJ of heat is lost from the cylinder during the expansion process, determine
