This is the second part of a two-part problem. The piston/cylinder in the figure contains 0.5 kg of water with a pressure of P=250 kPa, and a specific internal energy of 2537.21 kJ/kg. The cylinder is connected by a valve (initially closed) to an empty tank with a volume of VT = 0.5 m³. The valve is opened and the water is heated to a final equilibrium temperature of 500°C in the combined piston/cylinder and tank system. What is the final volume in the piston/cylinder (not including the tank) in m³? Include 5 significant figures in your answer (5 decimal places).

Question
This is the second part of a two-part problem. The piston/cylinder in the figure
contains 0.5 kg of water with a pressure of P=250 kPa, and a specific internal
energy of 2537.21 kJ/kg. The cylinder is connected by a valve (initially closed) to
an empty tank with a volume of VT = 0.5 m³. The valve is opened and the water is
heated to a final equilibrium temperature of 500°C in the combined piston/cylinder
and tank system. What is the final volume in the piston/cylinder (not including the
tank) in m3? Include 5 significant figures in your answer (5 decimal places).
