A Carnot refrigerator is used in a kitchen in which the temperature is kept at 301 K. This refrigerator uses 216 J of work to remove 2360 J of heat from the food inside. What is the temperature inside the refrigerator?

Physics
A lawnmower engine with an efficiency of 0.29 rejects 5500 J of heat every second. What is the magnitude of the work that the engine does in one second?

Physics
Assume that the pressure is one atmosphere and determine the heat in joules required to produce 2.99 kg of water vapor at 100.0 °C, starting with (a)2.99 kg of water at 100.0 °C and (b)2.99 kg of liquid water at 0.0 °C.

Physics
An ice chest at a beach party contains 12 cans of soda at 2.45 °C. Each can of soda has a mass of 0.35 kg and a specific heat capacity of 3800 J/(kg C°). Someone adds a 9.60-kg watermelon at 25.3 °C to the chest. The specific heat capacity of watermelon is nearly t...

A 17 foot ladder is placed against a wall. if the foot of the ladder is pushed toward the wall at 0.5 feet per second, how fast is the top of the ladder rising when the foot is 8 feet from the wall?

Physics
A person is standing outdoors in the shade where the temperature is 22 °C. (a) What is the radiant energy absorbed per second by his head when it is covered with hair? The surface area of the hair (assumed to be flat) is 180 cm2 and its emissivity is 0.84. (b) What would b...

Physics
The amount of heat per second conducted from the blood capillaries beneath the skin to the surface is 250 J/s. The energy is transferred a distance of 1.7 x 10-3 m through a body whose surface area is 1.8 m2. Assuming that the thermal conductivity is that of body fat, determin...
