A styrofoam container used as a picnic cooler contains a block of ice at 0°C. If 564 g of ice melts in 1 hour, how much heat energy per second is passing through the walls of the container? The heat of fusion of ice is 3.33 x 10° J/kg. Answer in units of W.

A 2.80-kg steel ball at 24.7°C is dropped from a height of 15.4 m into an insulated container with 4.50 L of water at 10.1°C. If no water splashes, what is the final temperature of the water and steel? The specific heat of steel and water is 450 J/(kg·K) and 4186 J/(kg·K) respectively.

A closed box is filled with dry ice at a temperature of -88.3 oC, while the outside temperature is 18.8 oC. The box is cubical, measuring 0.309 m on a side, and the thickness of the walls is 3.80 × 10-2 m. In one day, 3.62 × 106 J of heat is conducted through the six walls. Find the thermal conductivity of the material from which the box is made.

The thermal conductivities of human tissues vary greatly. Fat and skin have conductivities of about 0.20 W/m · K and 0.020 W/m · K respectively, while other tissues inside the body have conductivities of about 0.50 W/m · K. Assume that between the core region of the body and the skin surface lies a skin layer of 1.0 mm, fat layer of 0.50 cm, and 3.2 cm of other tissues. (a) Find the R-factor for each of these layers, and the equivalent R-factor for all layers taken together, retaining two digits. Rskin      m2 · K/W Rfat      m2 · K/W Rtissue      m2 · K/W R      m2 · K/W (b) Find the rate of energy loss when the core temperature is 37°C and the exterior temperature is 0°C. Assume that both a protective layer of clothing and an insulating layer of unmoving air are absent, and a body area of 2.0 m2. W
