Chapter 10, Problem 10.27P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

A differential energy balance on water should be written and what happens to other 3% is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Equation for energy balance is,

MCVdTdt=QW

Where, M = mass, Cv = specific heat at constant volume, dTdt = rate of change temperature, Q = rate of heat transfer and W = rate of work done.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

An expression for the water temperature as a function of time should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Equation for energy balance is,

MCVdTdt=QW

Where, M = mass, Cv = specific heat at constant volume, dTdt = rate of change temperature, Q = rate of heat transfer and W = rate of work done.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The time to reach the boiling point should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Equation for energy balance is,

MCVdTdt=QW

Where, M = mass, Cv = specific heat at constant volume, dTdt = rate of change temperature, Q = rate of heat transfer and W = rate of work done.
