Question

4. A new engine design incorporates a piston that contains 0.6 kg of steel (specific heat capacity = 470 J/kg.K) and 1.20 kg of Aluminum (Specific heat capacity = 910.0 J/kg.K). How much heat in (J) is required to raise the piston from an initial temperature of (20 degree C) to its operating temperature of (160 degree C)? 8.50x10^5 3.18x10^5 1.90x10^5 5.70x10^5

Step 1

6 kg Specific heat capacity of steel (C1) = 470 J/kg K Initial temperature (T1) = 20°C Final temperature (T2) = 160°C Using the formula Q = m1 * C1 * ΔT, where ΔT = T2 - T1: Q1 = 0.6 kg * 470 J/kg K * (160°C - 20°C) Q1 = 0.6 kg * 470 J/kg K * 140°C Q1 = 39,600 J Show more…
