Conventional hot-water heaters consist of a tank of water maintained at a fixed temperature. the hot water is to be used when needed. the drawback is that energy is wasted because the tank loses heat when it is not in use, and you can run out of hot water if you use too much. some utility companies are encouraging the use of on-demand water heaters (also known as flash heaters), which consist of heating units to heat the water as you use it. no water tank is involved, so no heat is wasted. a typical household shower flow rate is 2.50 gal/min (9.46 l/min ) with the tap water being heated from 51.0 ˚f (10.6 ˚c) to 120 ˚f (48.9 ˚c) by the on-demand heater.what rate of heat input (either electrical of from gas) is required to operate such a unit, assuming that all the heat goes into the water?

Suppose your surface body temperature averaged 90 degrees f. how much radiant energy in w/m^2 would be emitted from your body?

1. study the scenario. the particles in some system are moving around quickly. a few minutes later, the particles are moving, on average, more slowly. how does this change in motion affect the temperature of the system? the temperature of the system did not change. the speed of the particles does not affect temperature, the number of particles affects the temperature.the temperature of the system is lower now than it was initially. faster moving particles result in a higher temperature for the system.the temperature of the system is higher now than it was initially. slower moving particles result in a higher temperature for the system.the temperature of the system did not change. the speed of the particles has no effect on the temperature, only the type of atom affects the temperature.
