Consider a family of four, with each person taking a 5-min shower every morning. City water at 15°C is heated to 55°C in an electric water heater and tempered to 42°C by cold water at the T-elbow of the shower before being routed to the shower heads. Assuming a constant specific heat of 4.18 kJ/kg·°C for water, determine (a) the ratio of the flow rates of the hot and cold water as they enter the T-elbow and (b) the amount of electricity that will be saved per year, in kWh, by replacing the standard shower heads by the low-flow ones.arrow_forward

Unfortunately, your refrigerator is already so full of treats that you know there will be no room for the Kool-Aid. So, with a sudden flash of insight, you decide to start with 4 gallons (1 gallon = 3.7854 liters, and a liter (L) is 0.001 cubic meters) of the coldest tap water you can get, which you determine is 50 °F (10 °C), and then cool it down with a 1- quart (1/4 of a gallon) chunk of ice you already have in your freezer. The owner's manual for your refrigerator states that when the freezer setting is on high, the temperature is -20 °C. Will your plan work? You assume that the density of the Kool-Aid is about the same as the density of water. You look in your physics book and find that the density of water is 1.0 g/cm3 (1kg/L), the density of ice is 0.9 g/cm3 (0.9kg/L), the heat capacity of water is 4200 J /…arrow_forwardA cup of coffee, cooling off in a room at temperature 23∘C23∘C, has cooling constant k=0.061min−1 (a) How fast is the coffee cooling (in degrees per minute) when its temperature is T=70°C?
