CP A person of mass 70.0 kg is sitting in the bathtub. The bathtub is 190.0 cm by 80.0 cm; before the person got in, the water was 16.0 cm deep. The water is at a temperature of \(37.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Suppose that the water were to cool down spontaneously to form ice at and that all the energy released was used to launch the hapless bather vertically into the air. How high would the bather go? (As you will see in Chapter 20, this event is allowed by energy conservation but is prohibited by the second law of thermodynamics.)
