I often make tea in my microwave oven. I know that it takes two minutes to bring the temperature of a cup of water from room temperature to just about boiling: ready for the teabag. I looked up the characteristics of a microwave oven. Typically their power rating is about 1000 W, but I know that this is the power consumed from the power company, not the power delivered to the water. I looked up the efficiency of microwave ovens, and found that it is about 64%, meaning that a typical oven delivers 640 W to the water. I also looked up the frequency of the microwaves that an oven uses, and found thatf= 2,450 MHz.
(a) How much energy is delivered to the water in the making of a cup of tea?
(b) What is the wavelength of the microwave?
(c) What is the energy of one microwave photon?
(d) How many microwave photons are absorbed by the water in making a cup of tea?
A heat engine has a solar collector receiving 600 Btu/h per square foot, inside
which a transfer medium is heated to 800 R. The collected energy powers a
heat engine that rejects heat at 100 F. If the heat engine should deliver 8500
Btu/h, what is the minimum size (area) of the solar collector?

Rather than dissipate the energy, it could be used for practical purposes.a. A typical person can maintain a steady energy expenditure of 400 W on a bicycle.

Find the maximum possible efficiency for such an engine.arrow_forwardMany decisions are made on the basis of the payback period: the time it will take through savings to equal the capital cost of an investment. Acceptable payback times depend upon the business or philosophy one has. (For some industries, a payback period is as small as two years.) Suppose you wish to install the extra insulation. If energy cost $1.00 per million joules and the insulation was $4.00 per square meter, then calculate the simple payback time.
