Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A 3 kg block of ice at -10Β°C is heated until it melts and then warms to 0Β°C. Calculate the total heat energy used. (Use specific heat for ice = 2.1 J/kgΒ·K and latent heat of fusion = 334,000 J/kg)

πŸ’‘ Hint: Calculate each part step-by-step; remember to calculate the two stages separately.

Question 2

Consider a room where hot air from a radiator rises to the ceiling and cool air sinks. This cycle continues. Explain how this demonstrates convection and its real-life implications.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how this effect is utilized in heating systems.
