We have exposed 1 kg of water, 1 kg of brick, and 1 kg of concrete each to a heat source that puts out 100 J every second. Assuming that all of the supplied energy goes to each material and they were all initially at the same temperature, which one of these materials will have a greater temperature rise after 10 s? We can answer this question using Equation as shown . We will first look up the values of the specific heat for water, brick, and concrete, which are cwater = 4180 J⁄kg K, cbrick = 960 J⁄kg K and cconcrete = 880 J⁄kg K . Now applying as shown , Ethermal = mc(Tfinal Tinitial) to each situation, it should be clear that although each material has the same amount of mass and is exposed to the same amount of thermal energy, the concrete will experience a higher temperature rise because it has the lowest heat capacity value among the three given materials.

kg/m³
Steam enters a turbine at 30 bar, 300°C (u = 2750 kJ/kg, h =
2993 kJ/kg) and exits the condenser as saturated liquid at 15 kPa
(u = 225 kJ/kg. h = 226 kJ/kg). Heat loss to the surrounding is
50kJ/kg of steam flowing through the turbine. Neglecting
changes in kinetic energy and potential energy, the work output
of the turbine (in kJ/kg of steam) is
