200 kg = 440 lb.
100 c= boiling point of water.
5 c is very cold.
32 f = 0 c

Grrrrr...Mother told me there would be days like this.laugh

A submarine is submerged to a depth of 1460 feet in the Atlantic Ocean. Find the air pressure in kPa, needed to blow water out of the ballast tanks.


WTF????confused

water boils at 100 celsius

the coefficient of heat for water is 1.00

the coeffficient of heat for iron is .115

I'll not do the metric conversion but if I recall correctly it takes one btu to raise water tempature of one pound of water one degree. once water reaches two hundred twelve degrees it takes an additional nine hundred eighty btu's to turn it into steam at normal atomespheric presure of fifteen psi, increase or decrease the preasure and this changes. It also takes ( removal of ) one hundred fourty four BTU's to turn thirty two degree water into ice.

Your professor likely wanted you to know how many BTU's it took to convert to steam and add the BTU's to reach the temp prior to the boiling piont.


Hope you did well

Dennis

Good for you darlin....My daughter had physics last year in her last semester and it almost drove her around the bend....She's a lot like me in that sense...numbers do NOT compute well for either of us!!!!!!!!!!

princess49503: A iron boiler weighs 200 kg , it contains 200 kg of water at 5 degrees celsius. How much heat in Kcal does it take to heat up the boiler ans water and turn 150 kgs of water in to steam?????



The weight of a boiler is a free radical and with out additional information on eficency of the unit or more specifics on the way or use ,,,there can not logicaly add this iron into an equasion of turning water into steam.
