Consider using the apparatus shown in Fig. 4-1(a), known as the Joule paddle wheel, to determine the specific heat at constant atmospheric pressure. The paddle wheel is driven by a slowly falling weight, and both have a temperature of 14.5°C. As a result of the work done by the 0.427 kg mass that falls 1.00 m, the temperature of 1 kg of water rises 1°C. Calculate cp.

In the piston-cylinder system shown in the figure, in the first state, the piston is located on the stoppers and the volume below it is 0.15 m3. There is 2 kg of water at a temperature of 40 oC in the cylinder. The cross-sectional area of the piston is 0.075 m2 and its mass is 35 kg. Atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa and gravitational acceleration is 9.76 m/s2. Then, heat is given to the water until it becomes dry saturated water vapor. Calculate the temperature of the water when the piston starts to move over the stoppers and the work done during the whole process.
A Block has the potential to produce up to 3000 MWh of geothermal energy when the project is developed to completion. In the region, the average geothermal temperature gradient is 20 °C/km, the maximum depth that can be reached using conventional drilling technology is 10 km, the average annual surface temperature is 25 °C and the rock under the surface in that region has a density of 2600 kg/m3 and a specific heat of 1000 J/kg.K.

A refrigerator has a coefficient of performance of 2.50, requires 150 W of electrical power to operate, and maintains a temperature of -4.00 °C within its interior compartment. How long would it take to cool a dozen 1.00 L of water in a plastic wrapper from 33.0 °C to -4.00 °C in this refrigerator? Any heat escaping the plastic should be ignored. Remember that 1.00 g/cm3 is the density of water.
