- At 25.0 m below the surface of the sea, where the temperature is 5.00C, a diver exhales an air bubble having a volume of 1.00 cm3. If the surface temperature of the sea is 20.0C, what is the volume of the bubble just before it breaks the surface?arrow_forwardProblem 1: How long does it take to heat a cup of coffee in a 1000-Watt microwave oven? This means that energy is used at the rate of 1000 Joules per second. Assume that the coffee starts at a normal room temperature of 25°C. Step 1: Guess an answer. Step 2: Estimate the volume of the coffee in mL and the final temperature that you want to attain. Step 3: Assume coffee has the same density and thermal properties of water. Find its heat capacity (specific heat times mass) in appropriate units. Step 4: Use the heat capacity and the desired temperature change to find the energy required. Step 5: Calculate the time required using the energy and the microwave power. Pay attention to units and use Power = Energy/time. Step 5: Is your answer reasonable?arrow_forwardthe second pic is the available units to use in the answerarrow_forward

- 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 general, the cooling of a hot steel bar can be described by the following differential equation: dT = a(T- 20) dt %3D where the surrounding room temperature is 20°C and a is a constant that describes how easily heat can transfer between the bar and the environment. Your steel bar has been heated to 200°C and will be allowed to cool from 200°C in such a way that the ODE describes its temperature. The coefficient 'a' describes how quickly heat is dissipated, and is affected by things like insulation or airflow around the bar. You wish to determine the value of 'a' required to allow the bar to cool down to below 30°C within 4 minutes, to the nearest two decimal places. Use a for loop to test all values of the 'a' coefficient between 0 and -1. Use an appropriately high resolution to ensure that your answer converges with the true answer.
