How much thermal energy (in joules and calories) must be added to 5.0 kg of pure water at 0°C to raise the temperature to 37°C?

Expert Solution

Mass m = 5 kg

Temperature dt = 37 ^o C - 0 ^o C = 37 ^o C

Specific heat of water C = 4186 J / kg ^o C

Thermal energy added Q = mCdt

=5x4186x37

= 774410 J

= (774410/4.186) cal

= 185000 cal

Ethanol, , boils at 78.29 °C. How much energy, in joules, is required to raise the temperature of 3.00 kg of ethanol from 38.0 °C to the boiling point and then to change the liquid to vapor at that temperature? (The specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol is 2.44 J/g ∙ K, and its enthalpy of vaporization is 855 J/g.)

A medium-sized peach provides about 59.0 Calories of energy. A) Convert 59.0 Cal to joules. B) Suppose that amount of energy is transformed into kinetic energy of a 1.83 kg object initially at rest. Calculate the final speed of the object (in m/s). C) If that same amount of energy is added to 3.79 kg (about 1 gal) of water at 19.7°C, what is the water's final temperature (in °C)? The specific heat of water is c = 4186 j/(kg*c)

Overall, 80% of the energy used by the body must be eliminated as excess thermal energy and needs to be dissipated. The mechanisms of elimination are radiation, evaporation of sweat (2,430 kJ/kg), evaporation from the lungs (38 kJ/h), conduction, and convection. A person working out in a gym has a metabolic rate of 2,500 kJ/h. His body temperature is 37°C, and the outside temperature 20°C. Assume the skin has an area of 2.0 m2 and emissivity of 0.97. (σ =...
