How spring force balances the loads on the piston


Solve the below problem:

Q: A piston/cylinder contains R-12 at -30°C, x =20%. The volume is 0.2 m3. It is known that V stop=0.4 m3, and if the piston sits at the bottom, the spring force balances the other loads on the piston. It is now heated up to 20°C. Find the mass of the fluid and show the P-v diagram. Find the work and heat transfer.
