QUESTION:

Water is being heated in a closed pan on top of a range while being stirred by a paddle wheel. During the process, 30 kJ of heat is transferred to the water, and 5 kJ of heat is lost to the surrounding air. The paddle-wheel work amounts to 500 N m. Determine the final energy of the system if its initial energy is 10 kJ.

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 3

Water is heated in a pan on top of a range while being stirred. The energy of the water at the end of the process is to be determined.

We assume that the pan is stationary and thus the changes in kinetic and potential energies are negligible.
