- The height of the Washington Monument is measured to be 170.00 m on a day when the temperature is 35.0 . What will its height be on a day when the temperature falls to -10.0 ? Although the monument is made of limestone, assume that its coefficient of thermal expansion is the same as that of marble. Give your answer to five significant figures.arrow_forwardIn 1993, the U.S. government instituted a requirement that all room air conditioners sold in the United States must have an energy efficiency ratio (EER) of 10 or higher. The EER is defined as the ratio of the cooling capacity of the air conditioner, measured in British thermal units per hour, or Btu/h, to its electrical power requirement in watts. (a) Convert the EER of 10.0 to dimensionless form, using the conversion 1 Btu = 1 055 J. (b) What is the appropriate name for this dimensionless quantity? (c) In the 1970s, it was common to find room air conditioners with EERs of 5 or lower. State how the operating costs compare for 10 000-Btu/h air conditioners with EERs of 5.00 and 10.0. Assume each air conditioner operates for 1 500 h during the summer in a city where electricity costs 17.0 per kWh.arrow_forwardIn some countries, liquid nitrogen is used on dairy trucks instead of mechanical refrigerators. A 3.00-hour delivery trip requires 170 L of liquid nitrogen, which has a density of 808 kg/m3. (a)Calculate the heat needed in kilocalories to evaporate this amount of liquid nitrogen and raise its temperature to 2.50°C. (You must use cp, and you can assume it is constant over the temperature range.) This is the amount of cooling the liquid nitrogen supplies. _____________________ kcal (b)What is this in kilowatt-hours? _________ kW · h (c)How much cooling in kilocalories would be obtained from melting an identical mass of 0°C ice? ____________kcalarrow_forward

(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? Assume that the specific heat of air is 1020 J/kg.K and that 1.0 L of air has a mass of 1.3 x 10-3 kg.

- During the winter, the inside of an average house is maintained at 20 °C, while the outside temperature is 0 °C. Assuming that the only mechanism of heat transfer is conduction, the walls are 10 cm thick and the heatconductivity of the walls is 0.5 W/(Km). a) Calculate the heat flux from the room to the surroundings in W/m2. b) To reduce the heat loss through the walls, the material should be changed to an insulator material. Thenew overall conductivity will be 0.1 W/(Km); the thickness of the walls is maintained. Calculate the reductionof the heat flux through the walls compared to the initial case.arrow_forwardIn some countries, liquid nitrogen is used on dairy trucks instead of mechanical refrigerators.
