Just about everyone at one time or another has been burned by hot water or steam. This problem compares the heat input to your s

kin from steam as opposed to hot water at the same temperature.
Assume that water and steam, initially at 100?C, are cooled down to skin temperature, 34?C, when they come in contact with your skin. Assume that the steam condenses extremely fast. We will further assume a constant specific heat capacity c=4190J/(kg?K) for both liquid water and steam.

How much heat H1 is transferred to the skin by 25.0 g of steam onto the skin? The latent heat of vaporization for steam is L=2.256

Answer:

63.3 KJ

Explanation:

Quantity of heat lost to the skin = mLw + mcΔT

where is mass in kg, Lw is latent heat of vaporization in KJ/kg ( 2.256 × 10^6 KJ/Kg), c is specific heat capacity of water (4190 J/(Kg.K) and ΔT is the change in temperature

m = 25g = 25 /1000 = 0.025 kg

quantity of heat loss = (0.025 × 2.256 × 10^6) +  ( 0.025 × 4190 × (100 -34 )

Quantity of heat loss to the skin = (5.64 × 10^4) + 5530.8 = 56400 + 6913.5 = 63313.5 = 63.3 KJ

pentagon [3]
His power output was 3 Watt (360 Joule/120 seconds). The power output can be calculated by dividing the quantity of work by the amount of second needed for the activity and also by multiplying the force amount with the velocity of the activity. The power output usually used for measuring the ability of machine for doing its job.

Explain why you can only change one variable in an experiment
ohaa [14]
The purpose of an experiment is to LEARN the EFFECT of something.

The way you do that is to CHANGE the thing and see what happens.

You can change as many things as you want to.  But If you change
TWO things and observe the result, then you don't know which one
of them caused the effect you see. 

Or maybe BOTH of them working together caused it.  You don't know. 

So your experiment is not really much good.  You need to do it again.

Olaf takes a picture of his dog using a digital camera. Which is true regarding the image of the dog detected by sensors in the
trasher [3.6K]

Answer: a. forms where light rays coming from the dog converge.

Explanation:

While photographing through digital camera, the light from the object through the lens converges and falls on image sensor.

The image breaks into many pixels and color and brightness of each pixel is measured and stored in form of number. This forms a digital image.

Thus, the correct option is a because the lens converges the light coming from the object onto the sensor.
