A 2 ohm heater takes 5 amperes while submerged in 1400 grams of water contained in a vessel with a water equivalent to 100 grams. What is the efficiency of the system if the time required for the temperature to change by 80 degrees celsius is 3.1007 hours.
No heat losses exist in this task.
Hampus is concerned about the expensive electricity price. Stingy as he is, he tells his daughter that she is not allowed to bathe in the bathtub. Assume that the water temperature entering the house is 5.0°C. For the bath to be pleasant, the bath water must be 38°C.
a) How much energy is needed to heat the water to 38°C in a bathtub of size 0.150 m³?
b) How long does it take for the water heater to heat 0.150 m³ of water from 5.0°C to 38°C if it has an output of 1.0kW and an efficiency of n = 0.80 ?
c) How much does a bath cost if the electricity price for 1 kWh is $5?
Hampu's daughter does not care about the electricity price, so she pours a bath when Hampu is not at home. Unfortunately, the bath water is 45°C, so she adds cold water until the water is 38°C.
d) How much 5°C cold water does she need to fill in the bathtub for the mixture to become 38°C?

- A heat pump used for heating shown in Figure P18.25 is essentially an air conditioner installed backward. It extracts energy from colder air outside and deposits it in a warmer room. Suppose the ratio of the actual energy entering the room to the work done by the devices motor is 10.0% of the theoretical maximum ratio. Determine the energy entering the room per joule of work done by the motor given that the inside temperature is 20.0C and the outside temperature is 5.00C.

What is the maximum possible amount of ice it can produce in 2.00 h from water that is initially at 8.00°C?

The heating element of the hot plate is rated at 1.5 kW.

- Water flows through a shower head steadily at a rate of 10 L/min. An electric resistance heater placed in the water pipe heats the water from 16 to 43°C. Taking the density of water to be 1 kg/L, determine the electric power input to the heater, in kW. In an effort to conserve energy, it is proposed to pass the drained warm water at a temperature of 39°C through a heat exchanger to preheat the incoming cold water. If the heat exchanger has an effectiveness of 0.50 (i.e., it recovers only half of the energy that can possibly be transferred from the drained water to incoming cold water), determine the electric power input required in this case. If the price of the electric energy is 11.5 ¢/kWh, determine how much money is saved during a 10-min shower as a result of installing this heat exchanger.arrow_forwardA family comes home from a long vacation with laundry to do and showers to take.
