The “Energy Guide” label on a washing machine indicates that the washer will use $85 worth of hot water per year if the water is heated by an electric water heater at an electricity rate of $0.113/kWh. If the water is heated from 12 to 55°C, determine how many liters of hot water an average family uses per week. Disregard the electricity consumed by the washer, and take the efficiency of the electric water heater to be 91 percent.
I often make tea in my microwave oven. I know that it takes two minutes to bring the temperature of a cup of water from room temperature to just about boiling: ready for the teabag. I looked up the characteristics of a microwave oven. Typically their power rating is about 1000 W, but I know that this is the power consumed from the power company, not the power delivered to the water. I looked up the efficiency of microwave ovens, and found that it is about 64%, meaning that a typical oven delivers 640 W to the water. I also looked up the frequency of the microwaves that an oven uses, and found thatf= 2,450 MHz.
(a) How much energy is delivered to the water in the making of a cup of tea?
(b) What is the wavelength of the microwave?
(c) What is the energy of one microwave photon?
(d) How many microwave photons are absorbed by the water in making a cup of tea?
The energy entering an electric heater by electrical transmission can be converted to internal energy with an efficiency of 100%. By what factor does the cost of heating your home change when you replace your electric heating system with an electric heat pump that has a COP of 3.50? Assume that the motor running the heat pump is 100% efficient.

An electric resistance heater placed in the water pipe heats the water from 16 to 43°C. Taking the density of water to be 1 kg/L, determine the electric power input to the heater, in kW. In an effort to conserve energy, it is proposed to pass the drained warm water at a temperature of 39°C through a heat exchanger to preheat the incoming cold water. If the heat exchanger has an effectiveness of 0.50 (i.e., it recovers only half of the energy that can possibly be transferred from the drained water to incoming cold water), determine the electric power input required in this case. If the price of the electric energy is 11.5 ¢/kWh, determine how much money is saved during a 10-min shower as a result of installing this heat exchanger.arrow_forward
