Chapter 23, Problem 7PLA

A 250.0 g sample of metal shot is heated to a temperature of 98.0°C. It is placed in 100.0 g of water in a brass calorimeter cup with a brass stirrer. The total mass of the cup and the stirrer is 50.0 g. The initial temperature of the water, stirrer, and calorimeter cup is 20.0°C. The final equilibrium temperature of the system is 30.0°C. What is the specific heat of the metal sample? (The specific heat of brass is 0.092 cal/g-C°.) Show your work.

The exhaust duct from a heater has an inside diameter of 114.3 mm with ceramic walls 6.4 mm thick. The average k = 1.52 W/mK. Outside this wall, an insulation of rock wool 102 mm thick is installed. The thermal conductivity of the rock wool is k = 0.046+1.56*10-4T (°C) (W/mK). The inside surface temperature of the ceramic is T1= 588.7 K, and the outside surface temperature of the insulation is T3= 311 K. Calculate the heat loss for 1.5 m of duct and the interface temperature T2between the ceramic and the insulation.Assumesteady heat transfer.Hint: The correct value of km for insulation is that evaluated at the mean temperature of T2+T3/2. Hence, for the first trial assume a mean temperature of, say, 448 K. Then, calculate the heat loss and T2. Using this new T2, calculate a new mean temperature and proceed as before.
