Chapter 15, Problem 48P

(a)

To determine

The rate of evaporation of water in grams per second from the wet towel, which is placed over a keg of beer needed to compensate the energy that is absorbed by the keg of beer from its surrounding at a rate of 20W, thereby cooling the keg.

(b)

To determine

The mass of water that evaporates in 2 h

during the rate of evaporation to cool down the keg of the beer at the same rate at which energy is being absorbed.
