Water of volume 2 liter in a container is heated with a coil of 1 kWat 27^(@)C.The lid of the container is open and energydissipates at therate of160 J s^(-1) . In howmuch time,temperaturewill rise from27^(@) C "to"77^(@) C?

Answer»

8 MIN 20 s
6 min 2 s
2 min
14 min

SOLUTION :RATE atwhichenergy is gained by water
= Rate at whichenergysupplied
- Rateat which energyis lost
` = 1000 j s^(-1)- 160 J s^(-1)= 840 J s^(-1) `
Heat REQUIREDTO raisethe temperatureof water from ` 27^(@) C"to "77^(@) C " is ms " Delta T `
Hence, the required time
` t = ( ms Delta T )/( " Rate by which energy is gainedby water ")`
` ( 2kg xxs 4.2 xx 10^(3) J kg^(-1@)C^(-1) xx (77^(@)C - 27^(@)C))/( 840 J s^(-1)`
` 500 s = 8 min 20 s `
