A Covid-19 patient whose weight is 65 kg has a body temperature of 38°C due to the ever caused by the patient's immune reaction against coronavirus. The patient drinks 1 L of old water at 4 °C to lower his/her fever. Assuming that the patient's body dissipates energy of 9 J to the environment and has an average specific heat of 3.8 kJ/kg°C, calculate the body emperature of this patient after drinking the cold water.

1. It is commonly recommended that hot foods be cooled first to room temperature by simply waiting a while before they are put into the refrigerator to save energy. Despite this common sense recommendation, a person keeps cooking a large pan of stew twice a week and putting the pan into the refrigerator while it is still hot, thinking that the money saved is probably too little. The average mass of the pan and its contents is 5-kg. The average temperature of the kitchen is 20°C, and the average temperature of the food is 95°C when it is taken off the stove. The refrigerated space is maintained at 3°C, and the average specific heat of the food and the pan can be taken to be 3.9 kJ/kg-K. If the refrigerator has a coefficient of performance of 1.2 and the cost of electricity is Php 21.59 per kW-hr. Determine how much will be saved a year by waiting for the food to cool to room temperature before putting it into the refrigerator. Ans: Php 170.66 20°C Hot food 5°C
169 g of solid water (i.e. ice), at -17 °C, is placed into a sealed, insulated container with a volume of 0.29 m^3. A 1457 W heater is used to heat and change the phase of the sample until it is a gaseous water (i.e. steam). The heater runs for 433 s. What is the pressure, in kPa, of the gaseous water in the container at the end of the heating process? Round your answer to the first decimal place.
