In a solar water heater, energy from the Sun is gathered by water that circulates through tubes in a rooftop collector.The solar radiation enters the collector through a transparent cover and warms the water in the tubes; this water is pumped into a holding tank. Assume that the efficiency of the overall system is 20% (that is, 80% of the incident solar energy is lost from the system). What collector area is necessary to raise the temperature of 200 L of water in the tank from 20C to 40°C in 1.0 h when the intensity of incident sunlight is 700 W/m2?
A power plant burns coal to produce pressurized steam at 540 K. The steam then condenses back into water at a temperature of 313 K.
If the plant operates at 50.0% of its maximum efficiency and its power output is 1.23 × 108 W, at what rate must heat be removed by means of a cooling tower?
Solar energy is used for air conditioning a house. To maintain a pressurized water tank at 443 K solar radiation is allowed. At a particular time interval, 301kJ of heat is extracted from the house to maintain its temperature at 301K when the surroundings temperature is 310K. Consider the tank of water, the house and the surroundings as heat reservoirs, what is the minimum heat (in kJ ,2 decimal places) that must be extracted from the tank of water by any device built to accomplish the required cooling of the house. No other sources of energy are available.

Assume that the resulting internal energy leaves a person’s body by radiation and convection of dry air. When you jog, most of the food energy you burn above your BMR becomes internalenergy that would raise your body temperature if it were not eliminated. Assume that evaporation of perspiration is the mechanism for eliminating this energy. Suppose a person is jogging for “maximum fat burning,” converting food energy at the rate 400 kcal/h above his BMR, and putting out energy by work at the rate 60.0 W. Assume that the heat of evaporation of water at body temperature is equal to its heat of vaporization at 100°C. (a) Determine the hourly rate at which water must evaporate from his skin.

(c) The material in buildings absorbs energy during the day and releases it because the temperature of the buildings is lower than the cooler air (d) The material in buildings releases a lot of energy into the hot air during the day so at night all of the energy is still therearrow_forward
- A certain car has 14 L of liquid coolant circulating at a temperature of 95 degrees Celsius through the engine’s cooling system. Assume that, in this normal condition, the coolant completely fills the 3.5 L volume of the aluminum radiator and the 10.5 L internal cavities within the aluminum engine. When a car overheats, the radiator, engine, and coolant expand and a small reservoir connected to the radiator catches any resultant coolant overflow. Estimate how much coolant overflows to the reservoir if the system goes from 95 degrees Celsius to 106 degrees Celsius. Model the radiator and engine as hollow shells of aluminum. The coefficient of volume expansion for coolant is 410x10^-6 degrees Celsiusarrow_forwardDuring a chemistry lab, you take a 0.4 kg sample of ice and put it in a beaker with a thermometer.
