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.

36. GO A copper pipe with an outer radius of 0.013 m runs from an outdoor wall faucet into the interior of a house. The temperature of the faucet is 4.0 °C, and the temperature of the pipe, at 3.0 m from the faucet, is 25 °C. In fifteen minutes, the pipe conducts a total of 270 J of heat to the outdoor faucet from the house interior. Find the inner radius of the pipe. Ignore any water inside the pipe.
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
Ice cubes are used to chill a soda with a mass msoda = 0.300 kg at 15.0 °C. The ice is at 0 °C, and the total mass of the ice cubes is 0.020 kg. Assume that the soda is kept in a foam container so that heat loss can be ignored, and that the soda has the same specific heat as water. Find the final temperature when all ice has melted.
A styrofoam cooler (k = 0.030 W/(m-°C) has outside dimensions of 0.170 m x 0.250 m x 0.260 m, and an average thickness of 2.0 cm. How long will it take for 1.10 kg of ice at -5.0°C to melt (to water at 0°C) in the cooler if the outside temperature is 34.0°C? Assume that ice temperature increases linearly from -5.0°C to 0°C.

The air temperature above coastal areas is profoundly influenced by the large specific heat of water. One reason is that the energy released when 1 cubic meter of water cools by 1.0°C will raise the temperature of an enormously larger volume of air by 1.0°C. Estimate that volume of air. The specific heat of air is approximately 1.0 kJ/kg ? °C. Take the density of air to be 1.3 kg/m3.
To make a secure fit, rivets that are larger than the rivet hole are often used and the rivet is cooled (usually in dry ice) before it is placed in the hole. A steel rivet 1.877 cm in diameter is to be placed in a hole 1.875 cm in diameter at 15 ∘C.To what temperature must the rivet be cooled if it is to fit in the hole? A small immersion heater is rated at 375 W . The specific heat of water is 4186 J/kg⋅C∘.Estimate how long it will take to heat a cup of soup (assume this is 250 mL of water) from 19 ∘C to 72 ∘C. Ignore the heat loss to the surrounding environment. A 52 g ice cube at its melting point is dropped into an insulated container of liquid nitrogen.

The "steam" above a freshly made cup of instant coffee is really water vapor droplets condensing after evaporating from the hot coffee. What is the final temperature of 205 g of hot coffee initially at 98.0°C if 3.18 g evaporates from it? The coffee is in a Styrofoam cup, and so other methods of heat transfer can be neglected. Assume that coffee has the same physical properties as water; its latent heat of vaporization is 539 kcal/kg and its specific heat is 1.00 kcal/(kg · °C).
