Assume that all of the heater's power goes into heating of water.arrow_forwardEstimate how long (in seconds) it should take to bring a cup of water to boiling temperature in a typical 700-watt microwave oven, assuming that all the energy ends up in the water. Something to think about: why is no heat involved in this process? The heat capacity of water is 75.29J/K/mol. A cup of water is about 250mL. Assume the water is at 25°C to start with (typical room temperature). Relative tolerance +/- 2% Sarrow_forwardThe concrete slab of a basement is 11m long, 8 m wide and 0.2 m thick.

- In very cold weather, a significant mechanism for heat loss by the human body is the energy expended in warming the air taken into the lungs with each breath. (a) On a cold winter day when the temperature is - 20 ℃, what amount of heat is needed to warm body temperature (37 ℃) the 0.60 L of air exchanged with each breath?

Did you use the given final temperature for each of the three materials?arrow_forward
- A pronghorn antelope can run at a remarkable 18 m/sm/s for up to 10 minutes, almost triple the speed that an elite human runner can maintain. For a 32 kgkg pronghorn, this requires an astonishing 3.4 kWkW of metabolic power, which leads to a significant increase in body temperature. If the pronghorn had no way to exhaust heat to the environment, by how much would its body temperature increase during this run? (In fact, it will lose some heat, so the rise won't be this dramatic, but it will be quite noticeable, requiring adaptations that keep the pronghorn's brain cooler than its body in such circumstances.) Assume the efficiency of the pronghorn to be equal to that of human.arrow_forwardOccasionally, huge icebergs are found floating on the ocean's currents. Suppose one such iceberg is 120 km long, 35 km wide, and 230 m thick. (a) How much heat would be required to melt this iceberg (assumed to be at 0°C) into liquid water at 0 °C? The density of ice is 917 kg/m³. (b) The annual energy consumption by the United States is about 1.10 x 1020 J. If this energy were delivered to the iceberg every year, how many years would it take before the ice completely melted?arrow_forwardTo help keep his barn warm on cold days, a farmer stores 837 kg of solar-heated water (Lf = 3.35E+5 J/kg) in barrels. For how many hours would a 1.91 kW electric space heater have to operate to provide the same amount of heat as the water does, when it cools from 15.0 to 0 °C and completely freezes?arrow_forward
