Consider a pan placed on top of electric range to cook. The bottom section of the pan is 0.4 cm thick and has a diameter of 18 cm. The electric heating unit on the range top consumes 800 W of power during cooking, and 80 percent of the heat generated in the heating element is transferred uniformly to the pan. Assuming constant thermal

The technique of flow calorimetry involves measuring the temperature difference between the input and output points of a flowing stream of theliquid while energy is added by heat at a known rate. A liquid of density ρ flows through the calorimeter with volume flow rate R. At steady state, a temperature difference ΔT is established between the input and output points when energy is supplied at the rate P. What is the specific heat of the liquid?arrow_forward
