Question 161
Essay
Imagine a sample of water vapor at 150°C.List three possible components of a molecule's total kinetic energy.What happens to the average kinetic energy of the molecules if the temperature is doubled?
Question 162
Essay
You wish to devise a way to use wave power to heat water.You determine that approximately 108 kJ of energy are available per second from 3.0-m waves coming in along the coastline.How long would you have to collect energy from the wave in order to heat 18 kg of water from 20.0 °C to 100.0 °C? Assume you can transfer the stored wave energy completely to the water with no energy loss.[c
