Ahiker, caught in a rainstorm might absorb 1 liter of water in her clothing. if it is windy so that this amount of water is evaporated quickly at 20�c, how much heat would be required for this process?

Water evaporates at 100⁰C

So change in temperature = 100-20 = 80⁰C

Amount of water to be evaporated = 1 liter = 1L*1kg/liter = 1 kg

Specific heat of water is 1 calorie/gram ⁰C = 4.186 joule/gram =4186 J/kg

So heat required E = mcΔT = 1 * 4186 *80= 334880 J =334.88 kJ

So amount of heat require to evaporate water = 334.88 kJ

explanation:

as the height from which the ruler was dropped increased, the speed of the ruler at ryan's hand increased.

one person pulls 90n one way and the other has 100n pulling the other way.

so the net force = 90 - 100 = -10n,

or the ans can be 10n if the picture shows -90n and 100n instead.
