Chapter 26, Problem 73P
A coil of current-carrying Nichrome wire is immersed in a liquid. (Nichrome is a nickel-chromium-iron alloy commonly used in heating elements.) When the potential difference across the coil is 12 V and the current through the coil is 5.2 A, the liquid evaporates at the steady rate of 21 mg/s. Calculate the heat of vaporization of the liquid (see Module 18-4).

An electric current of 5 A passing through a resistor has a measured voltage of 6 V across the resistor. The resistor is cylindrical with a diameter of 2.5 cm and length of 15 cm. The resistor has a uniform temperature of 90°C and the room air temperature is 20°C. Assuming that heat transfer by radiation is negligible, determine the heat transfer coefficient by convection.
A typical flash bulb is rated at 310 mA and 2.90 V, the respective values of
current and voltage under operational conditions. If the resistance of the
filament when it is cold (To-20°C) is 1.12 , calculate its temperature when
the lamp is on.

A 1.00 mol sample of water vapour is enclosed in a rigid container equipped with a 9.97 Q electric resistance heater. When a current of 0.200 A is passed through the resistor for 100.0 s, the temperature of the apparatus was observed to increase by 0.465 K. Separate measurements on the evacuated container show that the heat capacity of the container and resistance heater is 60.50 J. K-1 Calculate the value of Cy for the gaseous water (water vapour).
