In a maximum-efficiency "Carnot" cycle, the ratio Qout/Qin = Tout/Tin because the entropy change when heat is absorbed and released by the fluid is the same. T remains the same during each process. Therefore e = 1 - Tout/Tin = 3/7, and Wout = 3/7 * 2800 = 1200 J ...

The maximum possible efficiency of a heat engine which exhaust its heat at a temperature of 46.0o is 39.0 percent. What is the minimum value of the temperature at which the engine takes in heat? (in oC).

The amount of heat transfered to the water is 150*7.1*1.0 = 1065 calories. Removing that amount of heat from 100 g of the substance caused its temperature to drop 67.9 C. The specific heat can be calculated from that information. C = Q/(M*deltaT) = 0.157 Cal/gm C = 0.657 J/g K

Chemistry
Heat energy is the amount of heat used or available; heat capacity is the ability of a substance to absorb heat. Heat energy is measured in J or kJ and heat capacity is measured in J/g*K.

The dark sunglasses will absorb the heat, and less of the heat resonates back out, so my answer would be the dark glasses. The heat is just reflected back or passed through, not absorbed.

Check 1 question.
Yes, you are correct. The first one is heat fusion. The second is heat of combustion. The third is heat of decomposition. The fourth is heat of solution.

Compute the energy deposited in the body as heat in that time interval, and divide it by the heat capacity of the body. The heat deposited is (0.82)(501 W)(3600 s) = __ Joules The heat capacity is (71.0 kg)(3480 J/kg C)= __ J/C

The heat generated by the students at the end of one hour is 10*(200 J/s)*3600 s = ___ Joules Divide that by the heat capacity of the air in the room, (Volume)*(air density)*Specific heat) The ratio will be the temperature rise. The high value is the result of erroneous ...

(a) Calculate the rate of heat transfer to the substance using P = V^2/R. Multiply by 240 seonds for the number of Joules. That energy divided by the mass and 60 C is the specific heat (b) time required = (Mass)(Heat of fusion)/(Power) We will be happy to check your work

I think you mean heat, not hear. Add the heat required for the following steps: (1) heat ice from -25C to 0 C (2) melt the ice (3) heat water from 0 C to 100 C (4) vaporize the water to steam (5) heat the steam from 110 C to 119 C. (Assume constant pressure) You will need the ...

Nuts to your I know paragraph. This has nothing to do with water heating. It has to do with electrical forces and energy. Work= Volts*chargetrnasfered b. 1/2 m v^2= work done by electicity c. Now use the heat you pointed out. Electrical work= heat to heat water+ heat to make ...

Physics-PLEASE ANSWER, it's due soon!
The sum of the heats gained is zero (some will be negative, as in heat lost). heat gained calorimeter=masscalor*ccu*(Tf-273) heat gained by water= (masswater+massmelted ice)*cw*(tf-0) heat gained by ice= Hf(massice) Heat gained by lead=masslead*clead*(tf-(417+273)) add all ...

Physics - Heat and phase change
8940 J = 2137 calories Melting 20 g of ice will require 1600 calories. That leaves you with 537 cal to heat the liquid water. That is enough to heat 20 g up to 27 C.

"over 80g to 8º C" does not make sense. Do you mean ".. is introduced 80 g of aluminum 80g at 8 ºC" ? If so, equate the heat loss of the Al to the heat gain of the water, and solve for the unknown final T. You will need the specific heat of ...
