Chapter 2, Problem 2.28P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Whether the statement “Each year after 1950 had an average global temperature higher than 1901-2000 average temperature” is true or false should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Earth is the planet that holds a variety of climates ranges from extreme cold at poles and heat at the equator. The global climate can be said as an average of regional climates. The history shows that the global climate gets cooled and also gets warm. The diverse climate such as extreme cold, sunny, dry, windy, and humid of the earth occurs because the earth revolves around the sun.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Whether the statement “average global temperature before 1940was lower than 1901-2000 average temperature” is true or false should be determined.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

Whether the statement “the warming in the time period 1970-2015 occurred at a faster rate than in time period 1900-1950” is true or false should be determined.

A typical candy bar weighs about 2 oz (1.00 oz = 28.4 g).(a) Assuming that a candy bar is 100% sugar and that 1.0 g of sugar is equivalent to about 4.0 Calories of energy, calculate the energy (in kJ) contained in a typical candy bar.(b) Assuming that your mass is 58 kg and you convert chemical potential energy to work with 100% efficiency, how high would you have to climb to work off the energy in a candy bar? (Potential energy = mass × g × height, where g = 9.8 m/s2.)(c) Why is your actual conversion of potential energy to work less than 100% efficient?
A 45-g aluminum spoon (specific heat 0.88 J/g °C) at 24 °C is placed in 180 mL (180 g) of coffee at 85 °C and the temperature of the two become equal.(a) What is the final temperature when the two become equal? Assume that coffee has the same specific heat as water.(b) The first time a student solved this problem she got an answer of 88 °C. Explain why this is clearly an incorrect answer.
The enthalpy of evaporation of water is 40.67 kJ/mol.Sunlight striking Earth’s surface supplies 168 W per squaremeter (1 W = 1 watt = 1 J/s). (a) Assuming that evaporationof water is due only to energy input from the Sun,calculate how many grams of water could be evaporatedfrom a 1.00 square meter patch of ocean over a 12-h day.(b) The specific heat capacity of liquid water is 4.184 J/g °C.If the initial surface temperature of a 1.00 square meter patchof ocean is 26 °C, what is its final temperature after being insunlight for 12 h, assuming no phase changes and assumingthat sunlight penetrates uniformly to depth of 10.0 cm?
