Answer:

Heat Flow Rate : ( About ) 87 W

Explanation:

The heat flowing out of the system each minute, will be represented by the following equation,

Q( cup ) + Q( water ) = m( cup ) * c( al ) * ΔT + m( w ) * c( w ) * ΔT

So as you can see, the mass of the aluminum cup is 150 grams. For convenience, let us convert that into kilograms,

150 grams = .15 kilograms - respectively let us convert the mass of water to kilograms,

800 grams = .8 kilograms

Now remember that the specific heat of aluminum is 900 J / kg * K, and the specific heat of water = 4186 J / kg * K. Therefore let us solve for " the heat flowing out of the system per minute, "

Q( cup ) + Q( water ) = .15 * ( 900 J / kg * K )  * 1.5 + .8 * ( 4186 J / kg * K ) * 1.5,

Q( cup ) + Q( water ) = 5225.7 Joules

And the heat flow rate should be Joules per minute,

5225.7 Joules / 60 seconds = ( About ) 87 W

when a person uses an iron to remove the wrinkles from a shirt, why does heat travel from the iron to the shirt?
artcher [175]
I think the answer to your question is that:
There is chemical energy being produced (by the water) and that causes the base of iron to absorb the heat. Then when the heated base of the iron is placed onto the shirt, the heat flattens the wrinkles on it.

<h2>Answer:Radiation-3,Conduction-1,Convection-2</h2>

Explanation:

Radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves.

These waves do not require any medium.This is the way we get heat from sun.Radiation is the quickest mode to transfer of heat.

Conduction is the transfer of heat through collisions of atomic particles.

This phenomenon largely occurs in solids like metals.The neighbour atoms sets the atoms into random motion thereby raising the temperature.

Convection is the transfer of heat through actual movement of medium particle.

This phenomenon occurs in gases an liquids.The medium particles actually traverse through the space transferring the heat.
