The compound system in the sketch below contains a gas (Cv0 = 2.5 mR) on both sides of an internal wall. As heat is transferred across the wall, the piston moves to the right until the gases obtain thermal equilibrium at T2. During this process the shaft force Fshaft maintains the pressure for system B constant at 3 bar. Also, PA1 = 10 bar, TA1 = 1000 K, VA = 1 liter, and PB1 = 3 bar, TB1 = 300 K, and VB1 = 1 liter. Determine (i) the heat capacities at constant volume and at constant pressure for the gas: Cv0 and Cp0; (ii) the missing thermodynamic state properties: T2, PA2, and VB2; (iii) the heat transferred from system A to B, QA-B, the pressure work out of system B, WB and the shaft work, WS. Do not neglect the affects of atmospheric pressure, P0 = 1 bar.
