In an energy-efficient home, a solar collector is used to provide heat energy. If the solar system releases 42,000 cal of heat when it cools from 50 oC to 48 degrees C, what is the mass (kg) of water in the solar collector (specific heat = 1.00 cal / g x degree C)?
What will be the final mass ratio (water/steam) when you mix together equal parts ice at 0 degrees C and steam at 100 degrees C? The specific heat of ice is 2100 J/kg*C, the specific heat of water is 4168 J/kg*C and the specific heat of steam is 2010 J/kg*C. The latent heat of fusion for water is 333 kJ/kg and the latent heat of vaporization is 2260 kJ/kg. (The answer will have no units)
Assume, the average radiation intake of the planet earth increases by 120 W/m² momentarily. The planet therefore leaves its thermal equilibrium and starts heating up (neglect additional thermal losses). The total weight of the planet is 6 x 1024 kg. Assume, that we have 1.1 x 109 km³ of sea water and the rest of the planet is rock. The heat capacity of sea water is 3.6 kJ/ kg K, the density is 1 t/m³. The heat capacity of rock is 1.1 kJ/ kg K, the density is 2.9 t/m². Take the cross section area of the planet as A = r² with r being 6500 km. How long does it take, until the temperature of the earth has risen by 3°C? Assume, the full mass of the planet is always on the same temperature. Why is the result much lower than you'd expect? Which of the assumptions is not realistic?
Jessica is walking down the NYC while eating a hot dog. Her walking is making her lose calories. Her eating the hot dog is making her gain calories. The rate as which she is losing calories per minute is defined as f(t)=t^2+5. The rate at which she is gaining calories per minute is defined as g(t) =10t+50. Before her walk, she had already eaten an entire pretzel which contained 300 calories. a.) From the 0th minute to the 8th minute, approximate how many calories Jessiva has lost using LRS approximation of 4 subintervals. b.)

Select all the correctly defined terms. (Hint: do not select the ones that are incorrectly defined) Law of conservation of energy presumes the total energy content of the universe is constant. Kinetic energy is attributed to the motion of the obicet and depends on the mass of the object and its velocity. O Potential cnergy is the energy associated with position or composition. Heat involves the transfer of energy between two objects due to a temperature difference. Work is a force acting over a distance Could also be transfer of cnergy from onc form to another
