(II) A 28-g ice cube at its melting point is dropped into an insulated container of liquid nitrogen. How much nitrogen evaporates if it is at its boiling point of 77 K and has a latent heat of vaporization of 200 KJ/kg ? Assume for simplicity that the specific heat of ice is a constant and is equal to itsvalue near its melting point.

An ice chest is constructed of Styrofoam (k = 0.033 W/moC) with insidedimensions of 25 by 40 by 100 cm. The wall thickness is 5.0 cm. The outside ofthe chest is exposed to air at 25oC with h = 10 W/moC. If the chest is completelyfilled with ice, calculate the time for the ice to completely melt. State allassumptions. The heat of fusion for water is 330 kJ/kg. (hint: ‘unwrap’ the box asthis is a plane wall problem)
(15-56) An inventor claims to have built an engine that produces 2.00 MW of usable work while taking in 3.00 MW of thermal energy at 425 K, and rejecting 1.00 MW of thermal energt at 15 K. Is there anything fishy about his claim?
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?

Soon after the Earth formed, heat released by the decay of radioactive elements raised the average internal temperature from 300 to 3000 K, at about which value it remains today.

Should the cooling fluid for an engine have a large or a small heat capacity? Explain.
A spaceship (consider it to be rectangular) is of size 7 x 4 x 4 (in meters). Its interior is maintained at a comfortable 20C, and its outer surface is at 116.9 K. The surface is aluminum. Calculate the rate of heat loss by radiation into space, if the temperature of outer space is 2.1 K. (This implies that the satellite is in the 'shade', i.e. not exposed to direct sunlight). Emissivity of Al = 0.17 , Stefan constant = 5.669 x 10-8 W/m2K4
