Answer:

entire wall temperature difference = 29.29 K

Explanation:

given data

temperature difference steel ΔT = 17.79 K

steel L = 1.471 cm

lead L = 2.416 cm

to find out

temperature difference across wall

solution

we know that here heat transfer by steel and lead are same

and

heat transfer = k×A×ΔT /  L   ................1

so

H( lead) = H (steel)

k×A×ΔT /  L   =    k×A×ΔT /  L     .................2

here we know

k for steel = 14.4 W/mK

k for lead = 36.6 W/mK

so put here all value in equation  2

k×ΔT /  L   =    k×ΔT /  L

36.6×ΔT /  2.416   =    14.4×17.79 /  1.471

ΔT = 11.50 K

so

entire wall temperature difference = 11.50 + 17.79

entire wall temperature difference = 29.29 K

500cm3 of water is to be jeated from room temperature 28oc to 100oc in order to prepare ahot cup pf coffee. What os the minimum
klasskru [66]

Answer:

The minimum heat required is 171626 joules.  

Explanation:

By First Law of Thermodynamics, the amount of heat (Q), in joules, is equal to the change in internal energy of water. The minimum heat required is the sensible heat necessary to heat up the water. That is:

Q = \rho\cdot V \cdot c\cdot \Delta T (1)

Where:

\rho - Density of water, in kilograms per cubic meter.

V - Volume of water, in cubic meters.

c - Specific heat of water, in joules per kilogram-degree Celsius.

\Delta T - Change in temperature, in degrees Celsius.

If we know that \rho = 1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}, V = 5\times 10^{-4}\,m^{3}, c = 4186\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C} and \Delta T = 82\,^{\circ}C, then the minimum heat required is:

Q = 171626\,J

The minimum heat required is 171626 joules.
