Jennifer and Mark were planning a picnic for later in the afternoon. Jennifer baked a cake and was running out of time before the event and needed the cake to cool faster so she could ice it. Mark bought some sodas for the party and needed to cool them so they would be refreshing for their guests. a) Jennifer decided to stick the cake in the refrigerator instead of setting it out on the counter to cool, because she said it would cool faster. Mark believed it didn't matter where she put it, as long as it was out of the oven it would cool at the same rate. What would your suggestion to Jennifer be to help her ice the cake before the party? (Who do you agree with and why?)

4) A ground source heat pump heats a building by extracting heat from the ground and pumping it into the building. Define: Qc = heat extracted from the ground, Qn= heat pumped into the building, W = electric energy used by the heat pump, Tc= temperature of the ground, T = temperature of building (Qc, Qn, and W are positive by definition). Assume Tr > Tc. a) Draw a diagram showing energy flow in and out of the heat pump. b) Write a general expression for the change AS in the entropy of the "universe", that is the heat pump plus the cold and hot reservoirs, in terms of the quantities defined above. Now assume ideal (reversible) operation, and take Te= 10 °C and Tp= 20 °C. What is the coefficient of performance (ČOP) of the heat pump? By what factor would this change if we had Tc = 0 °C instead?
A student drops two metallic objects into a 120-g steel container holding 150 g of water at 25°C. One object is a 206-g cube of copper that is initially at 83°C, and the other is a chunk of aluminum that is initially at 5.0°C. To the surprise of the student, the water reaches a final temperature of 25°C, precisely where it started. What is the mass of the aluminum chunk? kg eBook

A certain mass, m, of water has thermal energy added to it until the water is at the boiling point. Additional thermal energy is added until the entire mass, m, has been phased changed into steam. a) The temperature of the steam will be less than that of the water at the boiling point. b) The temperature of the steam will be greater than that of the water at the boiling point. c) The temperature of the steam will be the same as that of the water at the boiling point. d) The temperature of the steam will be zero. e) The temperature of the steam will be 2256000K.

If the objects are put in thermal contact and allowed to come to thermal equilibrium, which one will experience the larger temperature change? a) The one with the higher initial temperature b) The one with the lower initial temperature c) The one with the larger mass d) The one with the smaller mass e) They will have equal temperature changes, one getting hotter, one colder.
20:36 M Q4. A substance takes in energy of Q 1 point to increase its temperature by AT. Which formula can calculate the heat capacity (C) of the substance? * C-Q ΔΤ C = Q/AT C- ΔΤ/Q Q5. The more massive a substance, 1 point the the heat capacity. * smaller same larger Q6. The specific heat capacity of a 1 point substance is defined as: * the amount of energy required for substance of 1 kg to increase the temperature by 1 °C. the amount of energy for a substance required to increase the temperature by 1 °C. the volume of substance to store 1 °C of heat.

At 1:00 PM, Sally puts into a refrigerator a can of beer that has been sitting in a room temperature 70°F. The temperature in the refrigerator is 40°F. Fifteen minutes later the temperature of the beer has fallen to 60°F. At some later time, Sally removes the beer from the refrigerator to the room, where at 2:00 PM the temperature of the beer is 60°F. At what time did Sally remove the beer from the refrigerator?
