Chapter 5, Problem 5.42NP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The area of the collector needed to produce 1000 W of energy needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction: the heat collected by the solar can be calculated as follows:

  |wcycle|qh=ThTcTh

Here, wcycle is work done of the cycle, qh is heat applied, Th and Tc is temperature of hot and cold reservoir respectively.

A container contains ideal gas at 31C pressure of 40,000Pa and volume 2.65m^3. What will be the final temperature if the volume of the gas is compressed to 1.80m^3 and the pressure rises to 77,000 Pa? Show full work
A current of 1.55 A from a 110 V source was passed through a heater for 8.5 min. The heater was immersed in a water bath. What quantity of energy was transferred to the water as heat?
In an experiment, the combustion of a food was used to determined the caloric content of the food. First the calorimeter was calibrated to determine the heat capacity of the device. When a current of 1.25 A from at 12.5 V source was used to heat the calorimeter for 139 seconds, termperaturature increase of 3.75 °C was measured. Next, a 0.100 g food sample was burned in the same calorimeter, and a temperature increase of 5.23 °C was measures. Based on this experiment, what was the combusion heat (qc, in J) released as heat for this food sample? J? (Because the heat is known to be released, you do not need the mathematical sign).
