Chapter 14, Problem 36P
Evaporative cooling. The evaporation of sweat is an important mechanism for temperature control in some warm-blooded animals. (a) What mass of water must evaporate from the skin of a 70.0 kg man to cool his body 1.00 C°? The heat of vaporization of water at body temperature (37°C) is 2.42 × 105 J/kg. The specific heat of a typical human body is 3480 J/(kg·K). (b) What volume of water must the man drink to replenish the evaporated water? Compare this result with the volume of a soft-drink can, which is 355 cm3.
