A block of ice is kept pressed against one end of a circular copper bar of diameter 2 cm, length 20 cm, thermal conductivity 90 SI units and the other end is kept at 100°C by means of a steam chamber. How long will it take to melt 50g of ice assuming heat is only supplied to the ice along the bar, L = 8 x 104 cal/kg.

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.
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.
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

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.
