प्रश्न
A geyser heats water flowing at the rate of 3.0 litres per minute from 27 °C to 77 °C. If the geyser operates on a gas burner, what is the rate of consumption of the fuel if its heat of combustion is 4.0 × 104 J/g?

उत्तर १
Water is flowing at a rate of 3.0 litre/min.
The geyser heats the water, raising the temperature from 27°C to 77°C.
Initial temperature, T1 = 27°C
Final temperature, T2 = 77°C
∴Rise in temperature, ΔT = T2 – T1
= 77 – 27= 50°C
Heat of combustion = 4 × 104 J/g
Specific heat of water, c = 4.2 J g–1 °C–1
Mass of flowing water, m = 3.0 litre/min = 3000 g/min
Total heat used, ΔQ = mc ΔT
= 3000 × 4.2 × 50
= 6.3 × 105 J/min
∴ Rate of consumption = `(6.3 xx 0^5)/(4xx10^4) = 15.75 "g/min"`
उत्तर २
Volume of water heated = 3.0 litre per minute Mass of water heated, m = 3000 g per minute Increase in temperature,
`triangle T = 77^@C - 27^@C =50^@C`
Specific heat of water, `c = 4.2 Jg^(-1) ""^@ C^(-1)`
Amount of heat used = `Q = mctriangleT`
or `Q = 3000 "gmin"^(-1) xx 4.2 Jg^(-1) ""^@C^(-1)xx50^@C`
`= 63 xx 10^4 J min^(-1)`
Rate of combustion of fuel = `(63xx10^4 J min^(-1))/(4.0xx10^4 Jg^(-1))` = 15.75 `"g min"^(-1)`

If heat is exchanged between a hot and cold object, the temperature of the cold object goes on increasing due to gain of energy and the temperature of the hot object goes on decreasing due to loss of energy. The change in temperature continues till the temperatures of both the objects attain the same value. In this process, the cold object gains heat energy and the hot object loses heat energy. If the system of both the objects is isolated from the environment by keeping it inside a heat resistant box (meaning that the energy exchange takes place between the two objects only), then no energy can flow from inside the box or come into the box. |
