A solid body accepts heat in the amount of 500 J. But at outlet it is measured that it has the same amount of energy. Why? not sufficient information none of the given because body is in transient regime because the process does not depend on time because it is solid body therefore does not accept heat

QUESTION TWO (a) Consider the process of heating water on top of an electric range.i. What are the forms of energy involved during this process?ii. What are the energy transformations that take place?(b) A classroom that normally contains 40 people is to be air-conditioned with window air-conditioning units of 5-kW cooling capacity. A person at rest may be assumed to dissipate heat at a rate of about 360 kJ/h. There are 10 light bulbs in the room, each with a rating of 100 W. The rate of heat transfer to the classroom through the walls and the windows is estimated to be 15,000 kJ/h. If the room air is to be maintained at a constant temperature of 21°C, determine the number of window air-conditioning unitsrequired.(c) Consider two closed systems A and B. System A contains 3000 kJ of thermal energy at 20°C, whereas system B contains 200 kJ of thermal energy at 50°C. Now the systems are brought into contact with each other. Determine the direction of any heat transfer between the two…
Why solar energy is called sustainable source of energy? Explain why it is considered a clean energy source?
The steam entering the turbine in a coal-burning power plant is heated to 500 celsius. The steam is cooled and condensed to water at 80 celsius. Use the formula in the footnotes of 7-2 in your book to find the ideal efficiency of the power plant. Remember that you must convert Celsius temperatures to Kelvin before using the formula. Show all your work below.
