One easy way to reduce heating (and cooling) costs is to add extra insulation in the attic of a house. Suppose a single-story cubical house already had 15 cm of fiberglass insulation in the attic and in all the exterior surfaces. If you added an extra 8.0 cm of fiberglass to the attic, by what percentage would the heating cost of the house drop? Take the house to have dimensions 10 m by 15 m by 3.0 m. Ignore air infiltration and heat loss through windows and doors, and assume that the interior is uniformly at one temperature and the exterior is uniformly at another.
Suppose you stand with one foot on ceramic flooring and one foot on a wool carpet, making contact over an area of 80.0 cm2 with each foot. Both the ceramic and the carpet are 2.00 cm thick and ale 10.0 on their bottom sides. At what rate must heat transfer occur from each foot to keep the top of the ceramic and carpet at 33.0 ?
Compare the rate of heat conduction through a 13.0-cm-thick wall that has an area of 10.0 m2 and a thermal conductivity that of glass wool with the rate of heat conduction through a 0.750-cm-thick window that has an area of 2.00 m2, assuming the same temperature difference across each.
To help prevent frost damage, 4.00 kg of water at 0 is sprayed onto a fruit tree. (a) How much heat transfer occurs as the water freezes? (b) How much would the temperature of the 200-kg tree decrease if this amount of heat transferred from the tree? Take the specific heat to be 3.35k J/kg. , and assume that no phase change occurs in the tree.
During heavy exercise, the body pumps 2.00 L of blood per minute to the surface, where it is cooled by 2.00C. What is the rate of heat transfer from this forced convection alone, assuming blood has the same specific heat as water and its density is 1050kg/m3 ?
A high-end gas stove usually has at least one burner rated at 14 000 Btu/h. (a) If you place a 0.25-kg aluminum pot containing 2.0 liters of water at 20.C on this burner, how long will it take to bring the water to a boil, assuming all the heat from the burner goes into the pot? (b) Once boiling begins how much time is required to boil all the water out of the pot?
The thermal conductivities of human tissues vary greatly. Fat and skin have conductivities of about 0.20 W/m K and 0.020 W/m K, respectively, while other tissues inside the body have conductivities of about 0.50 W/m K. Assume that between the core region of the body and the skin sin face lies a skin layer of 1.0 mm, fat layer of 0.50 cm, and 3.2 cm of other tissues. (a) Find the R-factor for each of these layers, and the equivalent R-factor for all layers taken together, retaining two digits. (b) Find the rate of energy loss when the core temperature is 37C and the exterior temperature is 0C. Assume that both a protective layer of clothing and an insulating layer of unmoving air a absent, and a body area of 2.0 m2.
Calculate the rate of heat conduction out of the human body, assuming that the core internal temperature is 37.0 , the skin temperature is 34.0 , the thickness of the fatty tissues between the core and the skin averages 1.00 cm, and the surface area is 1.40 m2.
An astronaut performing an extra-vehicular activity (space walk) shaded from the Sun is wearing a spacesuit that can be approximated as perfectly white ( e=0 ) except for a 5 cm × 8 cm patch in the form of the astronaut's national flag. The patch has emissivity 0.300. The spacesuit under the patch is 0.500 cm thick, with a thermal conductivity k 0.0600 W/m , and its inner surface is at a temperature of 20.0 . What is the temperature of the patch, and what is the rate of heat loss through it? Assume the patch is so thin that its outer surface is at the same temperature as the outer surface of the spacesuit under it. Also assume the temperature of outer space is 0 K. You will get an equation that is very hand to solve in closed form, so can solve it numerically with a graphing calculator, with software, or even by trial and error with a calculator.
What would the final temperature of the pan and water be in Example 1.7 if 0.260 kg of water were placed in the pan and 0.0100 kg of the water evaporated immediately, leaving the remainder to come to a common temperature with the pan?
The height of the Washington Monument is measured to be 170.00 m on a day when the temperature is 35.0 . What will its height be on a day when the temperature falls to -10.0 ? Although the monument is made of limestone, assume that its coefficient of thermal expansion is the same as that of marble. Give your answer to five significant figures.
Consider the latent heat of fusion and the latent heat of vaporization for H2O, 3.33 105 J/kg and 2.256 106 J/kg, respectively. How much heat is needed to a. melt 2.00 kg of ice and b. vaporize 2.00 kg of water? Assume the temperatures of the ice and steam are at the melting point and vaporization point, respectively. (a). UsingEq21.9, Q = mLF = (2.00 kg) (3.33l05 J/kg) = 6.66105 J (b).UsingEq21.10. Q = mLV = (2.00kg) (2.256106 J/kg) = 14.51106 J
