Answer:
(a) 2800 J
(b) 31.28 %
Explanation:
Heat intake, Q1 = 8950 J
Heat discard, Q2 = 6150 J
(a) Work = intake heat energy - discarded heat energy
W = Q1 - Q2 = 8950 - 6150 = 2800 J
(b) Efficiency = 1 - Q2 / Q1
Efficiency = 1 - (6150 / 8950) = 0.3128 = 31.28%
Answer:
The final temperature of the system is 39⁰C
Explanation:
Applying principle of conservation of heat energy;
Heat loss by a hot body = heat gained by a cold body
where;
Mh is the mass of the hot fluid = 330 g = 0.33 kg
Mc is the mass of the cold fluid = 855-g = 0.855 kg
Tih is the initial temperature of the hot fluid = 55°C
Tic is the initial temperature of the cold fluid = 10°C
T is the final temperature of the mixture
Substitute the given values and solve for T
Therefore, the final temperature of the system is 39⁰C
