Estimate the energy needed to compress the water


A frictionless piston-cylinder system contains 10kg of water at 20C at atmospheric pressure. An external force F is then applied on the piston until the pressure inside the cylinder increases to 100atm. assuming the coefficient of compressibility of water remains unchanged during compression, estimate the energy needed to compress the water isothermally. Answer: 29.4 J
