Answer:
The net amount of energy change of the air in the room during a 10-min period is 120 KJ.
Explanation:
Given that
Heat loss from room (Q)= 60 KJ/min
Work supplied to the room(W) = 1.2 KW = 1.2 KJ/s
We know that 1 W = 1 J/s
Sign convention for heat and work:
1. If heat is added to the system then it is taken as positive and if heat is rejected from the system then it is taken as negative.
2. If work is done by the system then it is taken as positive and if work is done on the system then it is taken as negative.
So
Q = -60 KJ/min
In 10 min Q = -600 KJ
W = -1.2 KJ/s
We know that
1 min = 60 s
10 min = 600 s
So W = -1.2 x 600 KJ
W = -720 KJ
WE know that ,first law of thermodynamics
Q = W + ΔU
-600 = - 720 + ΔU
ΔU = 120 KJ
The net amount of energy change of the air in the room during a 10-min period is 120 KJ.
