In an air conditioner, 12.65 MJ of heat transfer occurs from a cold environment in 1.00 h. (a) What mass of ice melting would involve the same heat transfer? (b) How many hours of operation would be equivalent to melting 900 kg ofice? (c) If ice costs 20 cents per kg, do you think the air conditioner could be operated more cheaply than by simply using ice? Describe in detail how you evaluate the relative costs.
A new temperature scale was invented: “x” scale and its unit [°x]. this newscale is defined in such a way that the melting and boiling points of water at theof the sea are its fixed points with values of 550 [°x] and 110 [°x], respectively. Awhat temperature interval on the “x” scale corresponds to an interval oftemperature of 10 [°C]?

You then need to drop the temperature of the coffee, initially at 90.0°C, to the ordered temperature. In order to simplify the calculations, you will start by assuming that coffee has the specific heat and density as if water. In the following parts, you will remove these simplifications. Solve now this problem assuming the density is 1.000 g/ml for coffee and its specific heat capacity is 4.184 J/(g ºC). If you had used ice cubes to cool the coffee, your calculation of q would have been a two- step process: (1) the ice at 0 oC first has to melt (energy added to go from solid to liquid; and then (2) to warm the liquid from 0 oC to the final temperature where q = mice cice + mwater cwater ∆T where cice = 2.11 J/ g . oC cwater = 4.184 J/ g . oC (Note: there is no ∆T for the first step since melting of the ice occurs at 0 oC, no temperature change) What…arrow_forward
