Question
Water of mass 3 kg initially at 20°C is heated in an electric kettle rated 3.0KW. the water is heated until it boils at 100°C (Take specific heat capacity of water = 4200Jkg-1K-1, heat capacity of the kettle = 450JK-1 and specific latent heat of vaporization of water = 2.3 x 106 J/kg).
Determine
i) Heat absorbed by water
ii) The heat absorbed by the electric kettle
iii) Time taken by the water to boil
iv) How much longer it will take to vaporize all the water
