प्रश्न

A refrigerator converts 100 g of water at 20°C to ice at -10°C in 35 minutes. Calculate the average rate of heat extraction in terms of watts.

Given: Specific heat capacity of ice = 2.1 J g-1°C-1

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J g-1°C-1

Specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336 J g-1

उत्तर

Given that

Mass of water converted to ice = m = 100 g

Temperature of water tw = 20°C

Temperature of ice ti = –10°C

Total time t = 35 min = 2100 s

Specific heat capacity of ice = 2.1 J g-1°C-1

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J g-1°C-1

Specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336 J g-1

Amount of heat released when 100 g water cools from 20C to 0°C is

Q1 = mcΔT

= 100 x 4.2 x 20

= 8400 J

Amount of heat released when 100 g water converts to ice at 0°C is

Q2 = mL

= 100 x 336

= 33600 J

Amount of heat released when 100 g ice cools from 0°C to −10°C is

Q3 = mcΔT

= 100 x 2.1 x 10

= 2100 J

Hence, the total heat released is 

Q = Q+ Q2 + Q3

Q =  8400 + 33600 + 2100

Q = 44100 J

Therefore, the average rate of heat extraction is

P = `Q/t = 44100/2100` = 21 W

A child running a temperature of 101°F is given an antipyrin (i.e. a medicine that lowers fever) which causes an increase in the rate of evaporation of sweat from his body. If the fever is brought down to 98 °F in 20 min, what is the average rate of extra evaporation caused, by the drug? Assume the evaporation mechanism to be the only way by which heat is lost. The mass of the child is 30 kg. The specific heat of human body is approximately the same as that of water, and latent heat of evaporation of water at that temperature is about 580 cal g–1.
