What causes ice to melt and water to boil

Physics

Ice melts due to the chemical properties of water. There are more hydrogen bonds between the molecules of ice than in water.

Water boils when the thermal energy in the water, which is a type of kinetic energy which causes the water molecules to move around, exceeds the strength of the hydrogen bonds between the other molecules.

When water is boiled, the heat energy is transferred to the molecules of the water, which begin to move more quickly. Eventually, the molecules have too much energy to stay connected as a liquid. When this occurs, they form gaseous molecules of water vapor, which floats to the surface as bubbles and travels into the air.

Steam enters a counterflow heat exchanger operating at steady state at 0.07 MPa with a specific enthalpy of 2431.6 kJ/kg and exi
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Steam Mass rate, ms = 1.5 kg/min

= 1.5 kg/min × 1 min/60 sec

= 0.025 kg/s

Air Mass rate, ma = 100 kg/min

= 100 kg/min × 1 min/60 sec

= 1.67 kg/s

A.

Extracting the specific enthalpy and temperature values from property table of “Saturated water – Pressure table” which corresponds to temperature at 0.07 MPa.

xf, quality = 0.9.

Tsat = 89.9°C

hf = 376.57 kJ/kg

hfg = 2283.38 kJ/kg

Using the equation for specific enthalpy,

hi = hf + (hfg × xf)

= 376.57 + (2283.38 × 0.9)

= 2431.552 kJ/kg

The specific enthalpy of the outlet, h2 = hf

= 376.57 kJ/kg

B.

Rate of enthalpy (heat exchange), Q = mass rate, ms × change in specific enthalpy

= ms × (hi - h2)

= 0.025 × (2431.552 - 376.57)

= 0.025 × 2055.042

= 51.37455 kW

= 51.38 kW.

A diver is on a board 1.80 m above
Virty [35]

Answer:

v = 6.95 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

A diver is on a board 1.80 m above  the water, s = 1.8 m

The initial speed of the diver, u = 3.62 m/s

Let v is the speed with which she hit the water. It will move under the action of gravity. Using the equation of motion as follows :

v^2-u^2=2gs\\\\v=\sqrt{u^2+2gs} \\\\v=\sqrt{(3.62)^2+2(9.8)(1.8)} \\\\v=6.95\ m/s

So, she will hit the water with a speed of 6.95 m/s.

If a substance is changing from a vapor to a liquid, like steam on a mirror, it is said to be _______.
NARA [144]

Answer:

condensing

Explanation:

Condensing is the word used to indicate the change of state of a substance from vapor to liquid, as in this case. During condensation, the substance releases thermal energy to the environment, therefore the kinetic energy of the molecules in the vapor decreases until they become closer to each other and they start to be affected by the intermolecular forces and so the substance becomes a liquid.
