How can we calculate the heat lost by the hot water in a given system?
To calculate the heat lost by hot water in a system, you can use the formula Q mcT, where Q is the heat lost, m is the mass of the water, c is the specific heat capacity of water, and T is the change in temperature. This formula helps determine the amount of heat energy transferred from the hot water to the surroundings.
Would all of the energy lost by hot water be transferred to an ice cube?
In a perfectly-insulated container, with a perfectly-insultated cover, all the energy of the hot water is distributed between the hot water and the ice cube. As the ice cube melts, this statement is still true, but the ice's latent heat of fusion may draw the hot water down to near freezing point, even if its mass is small compared to the mass of hot water.
How is heat energy transferred through the wall of a hot water tank?
Heat energy is transferred through the wall of a hot water tank primarily by conduction. The heat from the water inside the tank transfers to the walls of the tank, and then to the outside environment. Additionally, some heat can also be lost through convection and radiation.
Is heat and hot water included in the rent?
Yes, heat and hot water are included in the rent.
Have heat tape on pipes but no hot water why?
Heat tape is just for keeping the pipes from freezing, it does not heat the water. That's what the hot water heater is for.
What is a hot water pot?
A hot pot is a kettle used in dorms to heat water, and to heat soups
How will the amount of thermal energy lost by hot water be related to the amount of thermal energy gained by cold water?
The energy lost by the hot water will be gained by the cold water until they both come to equal temperature. Then there will no longer be any heat transfer from hot to cold. I think the mathematical relationship is a natural log curve that asymptotically approaches the horizontal - meaning the cooling curve keeps getting less steep over time as the heat is exchanged
What does heat and water make?
...hot water
Is cooling hot water exothermic?
Cooling hot water is an exothermic process, as heat is released from the hot water as it cools down. Heat is transferred from the hot water to the surrounding environment during the cooling process.
How long does it take for a hot water heater to heat up and provide hot water?
A hot water heater typically takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour to heat up and provide hot water.
When water at 0.c freezes is heat lost or gained?
As heat is a form of energy, it isn't lost or gained, it's just converted into another form of energy.
Does a cup of hot water have more heat that a pail of hot water?
Not necessarily. The amount of heat in a cup of hot water and a pail of hot water depends on factors like their temperature, volume, and material. In general, a pail of hot water will likely have more heat than a cup of hot water due to its larger volume and higher overall energy content.
