- Heating The amount of chemical potential energy stored in one gallon of heating oil is approximately 130 MJ. This is the amount of energy released as heat during combustion. (Note: 1.0 kWh = 3600 kW-sec = 3600 kJ = 3.6 MJ. Verify this equivalency and use it to answer the following question.) a. Suppose that during the winter, heating your home with oil may require an average of 6 gallons of oil per day. Assuming that to be the case, what is the average daily energy consumption? (Express your answer in kWh.) b. If the cost of heating oil is $3.00/gallon, what is the daily cost to heat your home? Use this information to find the cost of heating with oil in units of cents/kWh.arrow_forwardAn electrical power station uses 1.58 x 10-4 J of heat input with an efficiency of 35.7%.

- 600 J of work is done on a system in a process that decreases the thermal energy of the system by 300 J . How much heat energy is transferred to or from the system as heat? Enter positive value if the energy is transferred to the system and negative if the energy is transferred from the system. Express your answer in joules.arrow_forward55 J of heat energy are transferred out of an ideal gas and the gas does 40 J of work. What is the change in thermal energy, in Joules? Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.arrow_forwardThe heat supplied is 500 J. The heat loss to the environment is 160 J. Step 2 Calculation: Write the expression for the work output from the heat engine. W=Q1-Q2 Here, W is the useful workout, Q1 is the supplied heat, and Q2 is the heat loss. Substitute, all known values in the above expression. W=400 J-160 J=240 J Thus, the useful work is 240 J.
