- (a) Compute the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water from its freezing point to its normal boiling point. (b) How does your answer to (a) compare to the amount of heat needed to convert 1 kg of water at 100° C to steam at 100°C?
em>. The volume of an ideal gas enclosed in a thin, elastic membrane in a room at sea level where the air temperature is 18°C is 8 10-3 m3 .If the temperature of the room is increased by 10°C, what is the new volume of the gas?
One easy way to reduce heating (and cooling) costs is to add extra insulation in the attic of a house. Suppose the 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, then by what percentage would the heating cost of the house drop? Take the single story house to be of dimensions 10 m by 15 m by 3.0 m. Ignore air infiltration and heat loss through windows and doors.
One of the honest temperatures ever recorded on the surface at Earth was 134F in Death Valley, CA. What is this temperature in Celsius degrees? What is this temperature in Kelvin?
The temperature difference between the inside and the outside of a home on a cold winter day is 57.0F. Express this difference on (a) the (Celsius scale and (b) the Kelvin scale.
In cold weather, you can sometimes "see" your breath. What you are seeing is a mist of small water droplets, the same as in clouds and fog. Suppose air leaves your mouth with temperature 35°C and humidity 0.035 kg/m3 and mixes with an equal amount of air at 5°C. and humidity 0.005 kg/m3 What is the relative humidity of the mixed air if its temperature and humidity equal the averages of those of the two original air masses? Represent what happens by plotting three points in a graph like Figure 5.34.
The average coefficient of volume expansion for carbon tetrachloride is 5.81 104 (C)1. If a 50.0-gal steel container is filled completely with carbon tetrachloride when the temperature is 10.0C, how much will spill over when the temperature rises to 30.0C?
How much stress is cleated in a steel beam if its temperature changes from 15 to 40 but it cannot expand? For steel, the Young's modulus Y=210109N/m2 from Stress, Strain, and Elastic Modulus (http://cnx.org/content/m58342/latest/#fs-id1163713086230). (Ignore the change in area resulting from the expansion.)
For the human body, what is the rate of heat transfer by conduction through the body’s tissue with the following conditions: the tissue thickness is 3.00 cm, the change in temperature is 2.00C, and the skin area is 1.50m2. How does this compare with the average heat transfer rate to the body resulting from an energy intake of about 2400 kcal per day? (No exercise is included.)
In my humid climates where there are numerous bodies of water, such as in Florida, it is unusual for temperatures to rise above about 35C(95F). In deserts, however, temperatures can rise far above this. Explain how the evaporation of water helps limit high temperatures in humid climates.
Why does rubbing alcohol evaporate much more rapidly than water at STP (standard temperature and pressure)?
(a) Calculate the rate of heat conduction through house walls that are 13.0 cm thick and have an average thermal conductivity twice that of glass wool. Assume there are no windows or doors. The walls' surface area is 120 m2 and their inside surface is at 18.0 , while their outside surface is at 5.00 . (b) How many 1-kW room heaters would be needed to balance the heat transfer due to conduction?
