Chapter 23, Problem 4A
What is condensation, and why is it also a warming process?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
To Explain: Condensation and that it is a warming process.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction: Condensation is a process to convert the vapors into liquid.
When heat is absorbed by the surface, the vapors get converted into liquid. As some heat from the surface is absorbed, this process is a warming process.
Conclusion:
The process of changing vapours phase into liquid phase is known as condensation. It is a warming process as the heat is taken by the surface.

You are present for the testing of the ride, in which an empty 150 kg car is sent along the entire ride. Near the end of the ride, the car is at near rest at the top of a 100 m tall track. It then enters a final section, rolling down an undulating hill to ground level. The total length of track for this final section from the top to the ground is 250 m. For the first 230 m, a constant friction force of 370 N acts from computer-controlled brakes. For the last 20 m, which is horizontal at ground level, the computer increases the friction force to a value required for the speed to be reduced to zero just as the car arrives at the point on the track at which the passengers exit. (a) Determine the required constant friction force (in N) for the last 20 m for the empty test car. Write AK + AU + AE int = W+Q + TMW + TMT + TET + TER for the car-track-Earth system and solve for…arrow_forward
