A 75-kg cross-country skier glides over snow as in Figure P11.29. The coefficient of friction between skis and snow is 0.20. Assume all the snow beneath her skis is at 0°C and that all the internal energy generated by friction is added to snow, which sticks to her skis until it melts. How far would she have to ski to melt 1.0 kg of snow?
A system does 1.80×108 J of work while 7.50×108J of heat transfer occurs to the environment. What is the change in internal energy of the system assuming no other changes (such as in temperature or by the addition of fuel)?
If I add 11664 J of energy to an ideal gas inside a balloon, causing the internal energy to increase by 7278 J, how much work is done on the environment by the gas as the balloon expands?

(b) How much energy does it extract from the outside air?arrow_forwardA heat pump used for heating shown in Figure P18.25 is essentially an air conditioner installed backward. It extracts energy from colder air outside and deposits it in a warmer room.
