Answer:

691200 J

Explanation:

From specific heat capacity,

ΔQ = cmΔt.................. Equation 1

Where ΔQ = increase in thermal energy, c = specific heat capacity of the body, m = mass of the man, Δt = rise in temperature.

Given: c = 3.6 kJ/kg.°C = 3600 J/kg.°C, m = 96 kg, Δt = 39-37 = 2 °C.

Substitute into equation 1

ΔQ = 3600×96×2

ΔQ = 691200 J.

Hence the change in the thermal energy of the body = 691200 J

How does the sun's energy most directly influence precipitation in an area?
topjm [15]
The sun's energy influences climate in various ways. For example the latitudes at the equator receive more energy from the sun and therefore have warmer temperatures, On the other hand the sun's energy influences precipitation in a climate by driving the water cycle which determines precipitation.The sun is what makes the water cycle take place. That is the sun provides energy or heat to the earth; the heat causes liquid and frozen water to evaporate into water vapor gas, which rises high in the sky to form clouds ( precipitation), that in turn give us rain

A six pack of your favorite beverage (12 fl. oz. cans, assumed to have the same characteristics as water) is placed in a cooler
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Q = 169 BTU

Explanation:

As we know that volume is given as

V = 12 Fl oz

so it is given in liter as

V = 12 fl oz = 0.355 Ltr

now we have six pack of such volume

so total volume is given as

V = 6\times 0.355 Ltr

V = 2.13 ltr

so its mass is given as

m = 2.13 kg

now the change in temperature is given as

\Delta T = 70 - 34 = 36 ^oF

\Delta T = 20^oC

now the heat given to the liquid is given as

Q = ms\Delta T

Q = 2.13(4186)(20)

Q = 1.78 \times 10^5 J

Q = 169 BTU
