A rotating paddle wheel is inserted in a closed pot of water. The stirring action of the paddle wheel heats the water. During the process, 30 kJ of heat is transferred to the water and 5 kJ is lost to the surrounding air. The paddle wheel work amounts to 500 J. Determine the final energy of the system if its initial energy is 10 kJ.

the final energy of the system is 35.5 kJ.

Explanation:

Given;

initial energy of the system, E₁ = 10 kJ

heat transferred to the system, q₁  30 kJ

Heat lost to the surrounding, q₂ = 5kJ

heat gained by the system, Q = q₁ - q₂ = 30 kJ - 5kJ = 25 kJ

work done on the system, W = 500 J = 0.5 kJ

Apply first law of thermodynamic,

ΔU = Q + W

where;

ΔU  is change in internal energy

Q is the heat gained by the system

W is work done on the system

ΔU = 25kJ + 0.5 kJ

ΔU = 25.5 kJ

The final energy of the system is calculated as;

E₂ = E₁ + ΔU

E₂ = 10 kJ + 25.5 kJ

E₂ =  35.5 kJ.

Therefore, the final energy of the system is 35.5 kJ.

false.

explanation:

this statement is false. after falling for 5 seconds, its speed will not be 100 m/s.
