If 122.6 kJ of heat are added to 9.00 x 10 g of water at 22.0°C. what is the final temperature of the water? Specific heat of water at 1.00atm and 20.0°C is 4.186 kJ/kg-K. (Refer to Table 14.1.)
An iron rod with an initial length of 13.65 m has its temperature raise from 10°C to 31.74°C. If an iron has a coefficient of thermal expansion of 12 times Fr..10 to 6th power 1/Celsius what is the changing in the length of the rod?
A parcel of air with a volume of 9.3 x 10 km that contains 4.8 x 10 kg of water vapor rises to an altitude where all the water in the parcel condenses and then freezes. What is the change in temperature of the parcel of air due to freezing? Assume the density of air at the condensation altitude is 7.2 x 10 g/m. The specific heat of air is 0.17 cal/g Co, the latent heat of vaporization of water is 540 cal/g, and the latent heat of fusion of water is 80 cal/g.) Express the answer in standard seientific nötation. AT= x 10
If 31.0 g of milk at a temperature of 4.05°C is added to a 260-g cup of coffee at a temperature 91.0°C, what is the final temperature of the mixture? Assume coffee has a specific heat of 4.19 ✕ 103 J/(kg · K) and milk has a specific heat of 3.93 ✕ 103 J/(kg · K).
The basal metabolic rate is the rate at which energy is produced in the body when a person is at rest. A 75 kg (165 lb) person of height 1.75 m (5.7 ft) would have a body surface area of approximately 1.90 m2. What is the net amount of heat this person could radiate per second into a room at 19.0 °C (about 66.2 °F) if his skin's surface temperature is 30.0 °C? (At such temperatures, nearly all the heat is infrared radiation, for which the body's emissivity is 1.0, regardless of the amount of pigment.)
An underground gasoline tank can hold 1.12 103 gallons of gasoline at 52.0°F. Suppose the tank is being filled on a day when the outdoor temperature (and the temperature of the gasoline in a tanker truck) is 97.0°F. When the underground tank registers that it is full, how many gallons have been transferred from the truck, according to a non-temperature-compensated gauge on the truck? Assume the temperature of the gasoline quickly cools from 97.0°F to 52.0°F upon entering the tank. (The coefficient of volume expansion for gasoline is 9.6 10-4 (°C)−1.)
When resting, a person has a metabolic rate of about 3.88 x 105 joules per hour. The person is submerged neck-deep into a tub containing 4.62 x 103 kg of water at 26.9 °C. If the heat from the person goes only into the water, find the water temperature in degrees Celsius after half an hour.

A closed box is filled with dry ice at a temperature of -81.3 oC, while the outside temperature is 21.5 oC. The box is cubical, measuring 0.392 m on a side, and the thickness of the walls is 4.40 × 10-2 m. In one day, 3.93 × 106 J of heat is conducted through the six walls. Find the thermal conductivity of the material from which the box is made.
