11 A hot object is dropped into a thermally insulated container of water, and the object and water are then allowed to come to thermal equilibrium. The experiment is repeated twice, with different hot ob- jects. All three objects have the same mass and initial temperature, and the mass and initial temperature of the water are the same in the three experiments. For each of the experiments, Fig. 18-29 gives graphs of the temperatures T of the object and the water versus time t. Rank the graphs according to the specific heats of the objects, greatest first.

Estimate the number of panels in an array required to supply hot water to a summer home if 100 gal of tap water per day are to be heated from 10 to 50°C. Assume that the average efficiency of the array is 60 percent and that the average daily insolation intercepted by the array is 5 kw-hr/m²-day. Each panel has an area of 1.5 m². Consider an array of nine panels arranged in three parallel strings. Each string has three panels in series. Water flows into the array at 0.03 kg/sec and divides equally into each string. The water enters the array at 10°C and leaves at 50°C. The first panel of each string raises the temperature by 20°C; the second, by 15°C; and the third, by 5°C. The area of each panel is 1.5 m² and the intercepted insolation is 800 W/m². (a) Find the efficiency of each panel of the array. (b) Find the rate at which heat is collected by the array. (c) Determine the overall efficiency of the array.

In this problem you will estimate the heat lost by a typical house, assuming that the temperature inside is Tin = 20°C and the temperature outside is Tout = 0°C. The walls and uppermost ceiling of a typical house are supported by 2 x 6-inch wooden beams (kwood = 0.12 W/(mK)) with fiberglass insulation (kins = 0.04 W/(mK)) in between. The true depth of the beams is actually 5.625 %3D %3D %3D inches, but we will take the thickness of the walls and ceiling to be Lwall = 18 cm to allow for the interior and exterior covering. Assume that the house is a cube of length L = 9.0 m on a side. Assume that the roof has very high conductivity, so that the air in the attic is at the same temperature as the outside air. Ignore heat loss through the ground. The effective thermal conductivity of the wall (or ceiling) keff , is the area-weighted average of the thermal conductivities of the wooden beams and the fiberglass insulation that make up each of them. Allowing for the fact that the 2 x 6 beams…
A pot on the stove contains 500 g of water at 20°C. An unknown mass of ice that is originally at −10°C is placed in an identical pot on the stove. Heat is then added to the two samples of water at precisely the same constant rate. Assume that this heat is transferred immediately to the ice or water (in other words, neglect the increase in temperature for the pot). We will also neglect evaporation. The ice melts and becomes water, and you observe that both samples of water reach 60.0°C at the same time. Solve for the mass of the ice that was originally in the second pot. The specific heat of liquid water is 4186 J/(kg °C), and of solid water is 2060 J/(kg °C). The latent heat of fusion of water is 3.35 105 J/kg.
