First law of Thermodynamics

The word thermodynamics consists of two words: thermo- and dynamics. Dynamics means the study of motion. The field of thermodynamics is all about the study of the movement of heat. In a more meaningful way, it is stated as the study of the transfer of energy. Energy transfer is something that we encounter in day-to-day life. Automobiles, chemical reactions, refrigerators, and power generators work on the basis of thermodynamic principles.

A student living in a 3-m * 4-m * 4-m dormitory room turns on her 100-W fan before she leaves the room on a summer day, hoping that the room will be cooler when she comes back in the evening. Assuming all the doors and windows are tightly closed and disregarding any heat transfer through the walls and the windows, determine the temperature in the room when she comes back 8 h later. Use specific heat values at room temperature, and assume the room to be at 100 kPa and 20°C in the morning when she leaves.
Why do we characterize the heat conduction ability of insulators in terms of their apparent thermal conductivity instead of the ordinary thermal conductivity?
A family comes home from a long vacation with laundry to do and showers to take. The water heater has been turned off during the vacation. If the heater has a capacity of 50.0 gallons and a 4800-W heating element, how much time is required to raise the temperature of the water from 20.0°C to 60.0°C? Assume the heater is well insulated and no water is withdrawn from the tank during that time.
To heat a room with dimensions width a=3 m, length b=5 m, height h=2,2 m, approximately an electrical power of P=10 W per square meter is needed. At a cost of 0.2 soles per kW.h, how much will it cost per day to use this heater?
The ground temperature a few meters below the surface is fairly constant throughout the year and is near the average value of the air temperature. In areas in which the air temperature drops very low in the winter, the exterior unit of a heat pump designed for heating is sometimes buried underground in order to use the earth as a thermal reservoir. Why is it worthwhile to bury the heat exchanger, even if the underground unit costs more to purchaseand install than one above ground?
