At winter’s end, Lake Superior’s surface is frozen to a depth of ENV 1.3 m; the ice density is 917 kg/m3. (a) How much energy does it take to melt the ice? (b) If the ice disappears in 3 weeks, what’s the average power supplied to melt it?
A wood stove is used to heat a single room. The stove is cylindrical in shape, with a diameter of 40.0 cm and a length of 51.0 cm, and operates at a temperature of 450°F. (σ = 5.6696 10-8 W/m2 · K4, 1 Btu = 1054 J.) (a) If the temperature of the room is 70.0°F, determine the amount of radiant energy delivered to the room by the stove each second if the emissivity is 0.950. W(b) If the room is a square with walls that are 8.00 ft high and 30.0 ft wide, determine the R-value needed in the walls and ceiling to maintain the inside temperature at 70.0°F if the outside temperature is 32.0°F. Note that we are ignoring any heat conveyed by the stove via convection and any energy lost through the walls (and windows!) via convection or radiation. ft2 · °F · h/Btu
A pronghorn antelope can run at a remarkable 18 m/sm/s for up to 10 minutes, almost triple the speed that an elite human runner can maintain. For a 32 kgkg pronghorn, this requires an astonishing 3.4 kWkW of metabolic power, which leads to a significant increase in body temperature. If the pronghorn had no way to exhaust heat to the environment, by how much would its body temperature increase during this run? (In fact, it will lose some heat, so the rise won't be this dramatic, but it will be quite noticeable, requiring adaptations that keep the pronghorn's brain cooler than its body in such circumstances.) Assume the efficiency of the pronghorn to be equal to that of human.
Suppose a woman does 500 J of work and 9500 J of heat transfer occurs into the environment in the process.

You wish to chill 12 cans of soda at 25.0 °C down to 5.0 °C beforeserving them to guests. Each can has a mass of 0.354 kg, and thespecific heat of soda is the same as that of water. (a) How muchthermal energy must be removed in order to chill all 12 cans?(b) If the chilling process requires 4.0 h, what is the average rate(in W) at which thermal energy is removed from the soda?
Hydrothermal vents deep on the ocean floor spout water at temperatures as high as 570°C. This temperature is below the boiling point of water because of the immense pressure at that depth. Because the surrounding ocean temperature is at 4.0°C, an organism could use the temperature gradient as a source of energy. (a) Assuming the specific heat of water under these conditions is 1.0 cal/g . °C, how much energy is released when 1.0 L of water is cooled from 570°C to 4.0°C? (b) What is the maximum usable energy an organism can extract from this energy source? (Assume the organism has some internal type of heat engine acting between the two temperature extremes.) (c) Water from these vents contains hydrogen sulfide (H2S) at a concentration of 0.90 mmole/L. Oxidation of 1.0 mole of H2S produces 310 kJ of energy. How much energy is available through H2S oxidation of 1.0 L of water?

Solar PV systems have large potential to produce large amounts of electricity in desert regions such as in Oman. It is proposed to build a very large solar PV system in the Al Sharqiya Desert to supply all of Oman's electricity needs which is about 28 x 10° kW-hr per year. If the average annual solar insolation in the Al Sharqiya Desert is 2400 kW-hr/m² per year, and assuming a solar cell efficiency of 20% and a system efficiency of 65%, A.
