    Heat and Energy Transfer

    • 401 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Vocabulary: • Conduction- the passage of energy‚ particularly heat or electricity‚ through something • Rate of Change- the ratio of the difference in values of a variable during a time period to the length of that time period • Calorimeter- an apparatus for measuring the amount of heat given out or taken in during a process such as combustion or change of state. The measurements are often made by observing the amount of solid liquefied‚ or liquid vaporized‚ under set conditions. • Conservation

    Rearranging gives Heat and Temperature Change: Specific Heat Capacity Q = mc T 4186 J = 1 kcal Ex: If 15 kcal of heat are added to 5.0 kg of silver‚ by how much will its temperature rise? Ex: An aluminum cup having a mass of 250.0 g is filled with 50.0 g of water. The initial temperature of the cup and water is 25.0 °C. A 75.0-g piece of iron initially at 350.0 °C is dropped into the water. What is the final equilibrium temperature of the system assuming that no heat is lost to the

    Ailine Veiga Question: what is the heat of fusion of ice? Hypothesis: To get the heat of fusion of ice we need to determine the Energy it takes to melt the ice and also the mass of the ice and determine the heat of fusion. To determine the mass of the ice melted (m) we start by determine the volume of the water generated when the ice melted. This is the difference between the final volume (v2) and the initial volume (v1). Using the density of water (1.0g/mL)‚ this volume can be converted into mass

    Heat engine lab Intro: when an engine runs‚ it pumps pistons that move up and down and provide energy to the engine to it to go. These pistons move because of pressure and heat. This work done on the system is not only mechanical but its also thermodynamic. When a piston undergoes one full cycle its displacement is zero because it comes back to its resting place. This means that its net thermodynamic work to be done should also be zero‚ as well as its total internal energy. In order to test this

    situation for thick pipes is‚ however‚ more complex. [pic] The figure shown above represents the condition in a thick walled pipe. The area for heat flow is proportional to the radius – as may be seen‚ the area at the outside wall of the pipe is much greater than the middle. As a result the temperature gradient is inversely proportional to the radius. The heat flow ‘per unit length of pipe’ at any radius r‚ is [pic] cf.
