Indigenous peoples sometimes cooked in watertight baskets by placing enough hot rocks into the water to bring it to a boil. What mass of 500°C rock must be placed in 3.00 kg of 19.0°C water to bring its temperature to 100°C, if 0.0400 kg of water escapes as vapor from the initial sizzle? You may neglect the effects of the surroundings and take the average specific heat of the rocks to be that of granite.

A 5000 kg African elephant has a resting metabolic rate of 2500 W. On a hot day, the elephant’s environment is likely to be nearly the same temperature as the animal itself, so cooling by radiation is not effective. The only plausible way to keep cool is by evaporation, and elephants spray water on their body to accomplish this. If this is the only possible means of cooling, how many kilograms of water per hour must be evaporated from an elephant’s skin to keep it at a constant temperature?
Following vigorous exercise, the internal body temperature of a 72.5-kg person is 40.0°C. At what rate, in watts, must the person transfer thermal energy to reduce the body temperature to 37.0°C in 30.0 min, assuming the body continues to produce energy at the rate of 150 W?
and the length of the copper section is 0.800 mm. Each segment has cross-sectional area 0.00700 m2m2. The free end of the brass segment is in boiling water and the free end of the copper segment is in an ice-water mixture, in both cases under normal atmospheric pressure. The sides of the rods are insulated so there is no heat loss to the surroundings. What mass of ice is melted in 6.00 min by the heat conducted by the composite rod?

At what rate in grams per hour does the ice melt? Assume no heat flows out the sides of the rod. Thermal conductivity of copper is 401 W/(m-K). Latent heat of fusion for water, Lf= 333.7 J/g. Water boils at 100°C
A 6.25 kg block ice at 0 degrees Celsius is being warmed on a glass stove top. The thermal conductivity of the glass is 1.00 W/ (m K) and the glass is 0.50 cm thick. If the radiator plate underneath the glass raises the temperature of the bottom of the glass to 125 degrees Celsius, how long would it take to completely melt the ice? Assume the ice remains a solid rectangle with a square base of side 15 cm as it melts. B. What is the rate of entropy change in Joules/ Kelvin/ seconds of the melting ice?
The world's deepest gold mine, which is located in South Africa, is over 5.1 km deep. Every day, the mine transfers enough energy by heat to the mine's cooling systems to melt 348114 kg of ice at 0.0 degrees Celsius. If the energy output from the mine is increased by 9.6 percent, to what final temperature will the 348114 kg of ice-cold water be heated? Latent Heat of fusion of Ice-3.33 × 105 J/kg Specific heat capacity of Water = 4186J/(kg. °C)
The American Burn Association states 3. You heat up an aluminum sphere of radius r, 1.27254 cm to 100 °C. You cool a 20.0 g copper ring to 0.00000 °C. The inner radius of the copper ring is r, 1.27000 cm. You then place the sphere on top of the ring and they are allowed to reach thermal equilibrium. Assume no heat loss to the surroundings. At the equilibrium temperature the sphere falls through the ring. (a) What is the thermal equilibrium temperature? (b) What was the amount of heat that was transferred between the ring and the sphere? (e) Which object lost the heat and which object gained the heat? (d) What is the mass of the aluminum sphere? Do not use the definition of density to solve for the mass. O
