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? 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. (b) How much heat is lost per hour if the respiration rate is 20 breaths per minute?

What is the flux expressed as a fraction of the energy flux due to thermal re-radiation of absorbed solar energy? If radioactive decay were the only heat source for the Earth, what would the Earth’s temperature be?
A food product containing 80% moisture content is being frozen. Estimate the specific heat of the product at -6 ° C when 80% of the water is frozen. The specific heat of the dry product is 2 kJ / (kg ° C). it is assumed that the specific heat of water at -10 ° C is the same as the specific heat of water at 0 ° C, and the specific heat of ice follows the function Cp ice = 0.0062 Freezing point + 2.0649.
