4. Water is being heated in a closed pan on top of a range while being stirred by a paddle wheel. During the process, 30 kJ of heat is transferred to the water, and 5 kJ of heat is lost to the surrounding air. The paddle-wheel work amounts to 500 N m. Determine the final energy of the system if its initial energy is 10 kJ.

The rate of heat conduction out of a window on a winter day is rapid enough to chill the air next to it To see just how rapidly the windows transfer heat by conduction, calculate the rate of conduction in watts through a 3.00-m2 window that is 0.634 cm thick (1/4 in.) if the temperatures of the inner and outer surfaces are 5.00 and 10.0 , respectively. (This rapid rate will not be maintained—the inner surface will cool, even to the point of frost formation.)
When heal transfers into a system, is the energy stored as heat? Explain briefly.
Rubbing your hands together warms them by converting work into thermal energy. If a woman rubs her hands back and form for a total of 20 rubs, at a distance of 750 cm per rub, and with an average frictional force of 40.0 N, what is the temperature increase? The mass of tissues warmed is only 0.100 kg, mostly in the palms and fingers.
Can improved engineering and materials be employed in heat engines to reduce heat transfer into the environment? Can they eliminate heat transfer into the environment entirely?
Describe a situation in which heat transfer occurs. What are the resulting forms of energy?
When a driver brakes an automobile, the friction between the brake drams and the brake shoes converts the cars kinetic energy to thermal energy. If a 1 500-kg automobile traveling at 30 m/s comes to a halt, how much does the temperature rise in each of the four 8.0-kg iron brake drums? (The specific heat of iron is 448J/kg C.)
Suppose a woman does 500 J of work and 9500 J of heat transfer occurs into the environment in the process. (a) What is the decrease in her internal energy, assuming no change in temperature or consumption of feed? (That is, there is no other energy transfer.) (b) What is her eficiency?
Is it possible for the temperature of a system to remain constant when heat flows into or out of it? If so, give examples.
(a) How much heat transfer is necessary to raise the temperature of a 0.200kg piece of ice from 20.0C to 130C, including the energy needed for phase changes? (b) How much time is required for each stage, assuming a constant 20.0kJ/s rate of heat transfer? (c) Make a graph of temperature versus time for this process.
(a) A woman climbing the Washington Monument metabolizes 6.00102kJ of food energy. If her efficiency is 18.0%, how much heat transfer occurs to the environment to keep her temperature constant? (b) Discuss the amount of heat transfer found in (a). Is it consistent with the fact that you quickly warm up when exercising?
On a hot day, the temperature of an 80,000L swimming pool increases by 150C. What is the net heat transfer during this healing? Ignore any complications, such as loss of water by evaporation.
The engine of a large Ship does 2.00108J of work with an eficiency of 5.00%. (a) How much heat transfer occurs to the environment? (b) How many barrels of fuel are consumed, if each barrel produces 6.00109J of heat transfer when burned?
