The burner on an electric stove has a power output of 2.0 kW. A 750 g stainless steel teakettle is filled with 20°C water and placed on the already hot burner. If it takes 3.0 min for the water to reach a boil, what volume of water, in cm3, was in the kettle? Stainless steel is mostly iron, so you can assume its specific heat is that of iron.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The volume of the cubic is 994cm3

Step by step solution

01

Definition of unitary efficiency 

Unitary efficiency defines that no loss will be seen due to the change of variables.

02

Finding teh volume of cubic 

The haet equation is Q=Pt

mk,mw,ci,cware the mass of the kettle, the mass of water, specific heat in the kettle and specific heat in the water.

Q=∆T(cimk+cwmw)

role="math" localid="1649148289466" mw=pVQ=PtQ=∆T(cimk+cwmw)

Applying all values

V=1cwÒÏ(P(∆T)-cimk)V=14190×1000(2000×3×60(100-20)-449×0.75)=994cm3

You would like to put a solar hot water system on your roof, but you're not sure it's feasible. A reference book on solar energy shows that the ground-level solar intensity in your city is 800W/m2 for at least 5 hours a day throughout most of the year. Assuming that a completely black collector plate loses energy only by radiation, and that the air temperature is 20°C, what is the equilibrium temperature of a collector plate directly facing the sun? Note that while a plate has two sides, only the side facing the sun will radiate because the opposite side will be well insulated.

Two cylinders each contain 0.10molof a diatomic gas at 300Kand a pressure of 3.0atm. Cylinder A expands isothermally and cylinder B expands adiabatically until the pressure of each is 1.0atm.

a. What are the final temperature and volume of each?

b. Show both processes on a single pVdiagram. Use an appropriate scale on both axes.

Two containers hold equal masses of nitrogen gas at equal temperatures. You supply 10 J of heat to container A while not allowing its volume to change, and you supply 10 J of heat to container B while not allowing its pressure to change. Afterward, is temperature TA greater than, less than, or equal to TB? Explain.

30 g of copper pellets are removed from a 300C oven and immediately

dropped into 100 mL of water at 20C in an insulated

cup. What will the new water temperature be?

A beaker with a metal bottom is filled with 20gof water at 20°C. It is brought into good thermal contact with a 4000cm3container holding 0.40molof a monatomic gas at 10atmpressure. Both containers are well insulated from their surroundings.

What is the gas pressure after a long time has elapsed? You can assume that the containers themselves are nearly massless and do not affect the outcome.
