When energy shortages occur, magazine articles sometimes urge us to keep our homes at a constant temperature day and night to conserve fuel. They argue that when we turn down the heat at night, the walls, ceilings, and other areas cool off and must be reheated in the morning. So if we keep the temperature constant, these parts of the house will not cool off and will not have to be reheated. Does this argument make sense? Would we really save energy by following this advice?
What would be the efficiency of a Carnot engine operating with ? What would be the efficiency if and were any temperature above 0K? Interpret your answers.
Question: Suppose that a steel hoop could be constructed to fit just around the earth’s equator at 20.0ºC. What would be the thickness of space between the hoop and the earth if the temperature of the hoop were increased by 0.500ºC?
In deriving the ideal-gas equation from the kinetic molecular model, we ignored potential energy due to the earth’s gravity. Is this omission justified? Why or why not?
The pressure of a gas at the triple point of water is 1.35 atm. If its volume remains unchanged, what will its pressure be at the temperature at which CO2 solidifies?
