In winters, if is often warmer in San Francisco than in nearby Sacramento, 150 km inland. In summers, it is nearly always hotter in Sacramento. Explain how the bodies of water surrounding San Francisco moderate its extreme temperatures.
Death Valley holds the record for the highest recorded temperature in the United States. On July 10, 1913, at a place called Furnace Creek Ranch, the temperature rose to 134F. The lowest U.S. temperature ever recorded occurred at Prospect Creek Camp in Alaska on January 23, 1971, when the temperature plummeted to 79.8F. (a) Convert these temperatures to the Celsius scale, (b) Convert the Celsius temperatures to Kelvin.
One of the honest temperatures ever recorded on the surface at Earth was 134F in Death Valley, CA. What is this temperature in Celsius degrees? What is this temperature in Kelvin?
What would be the final temperature of the pan and water in Calculating the Final Temperature When Heat Is Transferred Between Two Bodies: Pouring Cold Water in a Hat Pan if 0.260 kg of water was 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?
For the human body, what is the rate of heat transfer by conduction through the body’s tissue with the following conditions: the tissue thickness is 3.00 cm, the change in temperature is 2.00C, and the skin area is 1.50m2. How does this compare with the average heat transfer rate to the body resulting from an energy intake of about 2400 kcal per day? (No exercise is included.)
What are the following temperatures on the Kelvin scale? (a) 68.0 F, an indoor temperature sometimes recommended for energy conservation in winter (b) 134 F, one of the highest atmospheric temperatures ever recorded on Earth (Death Valley, California, 1913) (c) 9890 F, the temperature of the surface of the Sun
- (a) Compute the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water from its freezing point to its normal boiling point. (b) How does your answer to (a) compare to the amount of heat needed to convert 1 kg of water at 100° C to steam at 100°C?
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?
Condensation on a glass of ice water causes the ice to melt faster than it would otherwise. If 8.00 g of vapor condense on a glass containing both water and 200 g of ice, how many grams of the ice will melt as a result? Assume no other heat transfer occurs. Use Lvfor water at 37 as a better approximation than Lvfor water at 100 .)
How many grams of coffee must evaporate from 350 g of coffee in a 100g glass cup to cool the coffee from 95.0C to 45.0C ? You may assume the coffee has the same thermal properties as water and that the average heat at vaporization is 2340kJ/kg(560cal/g). (You may neglect the change in mass of the coffee as it cools, which will give you an answer that is slightly larger than correct.)
(a) Calculate the rate of heat conduction through house walls that are 13.0 cm thick and have an average thermal conductivity twice that of glass wool. Assume there are no windows or doors. The walls' surface area is 120 m2 and their inside surface is at 18.0 , while their outside surface is at 5.00 . (b) How many 1-kW room heaters would be needed to balance the heat transfer due to conduction?
On a trip, you notice that a 3.50kg bag of ice lasts an average of one day in your cooler. What is the average power in watts entering the ice if it starts at 0°C and completely melts to 0C water in exactly one day 1watt=1joule/second (lW=1J/s) ?
