A pot of water is boiling under one atmosphere of pressure. Assume that heat enters the pot only through its bottom, which is copper and rests on a heating element. In two minutes, the mass of water boiled away is m = 4.0 kg. The radius of the pot bottom is R = 9.0 cm and the thickness is L = 2.0 mm. What is the temperature of the heating element in contact with the pot?

How many grams of coffee must evaporate from 350 g of coffee in a 100-g glass cup to cool the coffee and the cup from 95.0 to 45.0 ? Assume the coffee has the same thermal properties as water and that the average heat of vaporization is 2340 kJ/kg (560 kcal/g). Neglect heat losses through processes other than evaporation, as well as the change in mass of the coffee as it cools. Do the latter two assumptions cause your answer to be higher or lower than the true answer?
