You observe a grasshopper eating a blade of grass. You know that each blade of grass contains 100 units of energy. You then measure the energy level of the grasshopper using a fancy device. You notice that the grasshopper only has 20 units of Energy after eating two blades of grass. Based on what you have learned about thermodynamics, where did the rest of the energy go?
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.
A heat engine has a solar collector receiving 600 Btu/h per square foot, inside which a transfer medium is heated to 800 R. The collected energy powers a heat engine that rejects heat at 100 F. If the heat engine should deliver 8500 Btu/h, what is the minimum size (area) of the solar collector?
