The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will apply Newton's Law of Cooling and calculate the total heat lost by the body when its temperature is raised from `20°C` to `80°C` in `5 minutes`. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: - The body is initially at `20°C` and is heated to `40°C` with a `10W` heater, maintaining a constant temperature of `40°C` due to heat loss to the surroundings at `20°C`. - We need to find the total heat lost when the body is uniformly heated from `20°C` to `80°C` in `5 minutes`. 2. **Determine the Rate Constant (K)**: - According to Newton's Law of Cooling, the rate of heat loss \( \frac{dq}{dt} \) is proportional to the temperature difference between the body and the surroundings: \[ \frac{dq}{dt} = K (\theta - \theta_0) \] - Here, \( \theta = 40°C \) and \( \theta_0 = 20°C \). - The power of the heater is `10W`, which means it provides `10J` of energy per second. - At equilibrium, the heat gained by the body equals the heat lost: \[ 10 = K (40 - 20) \] \[ 10 = K \times 20 \] \[ K = \frac{10}{20} = 0.5 \, \text{W/°C} \] 3. **Calculate the Total Heat Loss During Heating**: - The body is heated from `20°C` to `80°C` in `5 minutes` (which is `300 seconds`). - The temperature difference at any time \( t \) can be expressed as: \[ \theta(t) = 20 + \frac{(80 - 20)}{300} \times t = 20 + \frac{60}{300} \times t = 20 + 0.2t \] - The rate of heat loss at any time \( t \) is: \[ \frac{dq}{dt} = K (\theta(t) - 20) = 0.5 \times (20 + 0.2t - 20) = 0.5 \times 0.2t = 0.1t \] 4. **Integrate to Find Total Heat Loss**: - To find the total heat lost \( Q \) over the time interval from `0` to `300 seconds`, we integrate: \[ Q = \int_0^{300} \frac{dq}{dt} \, dt = \int_0^{300} 0.1t \, dt \] - Evaluating the integral: \[ Q = 0.1 \left[ \frac{t^2}{2} \right]_0^{300} = 0.1 \times \frac{300^2}{2} = 0.1 \times 45000 = 4500 \, \text{J} \] ### Final Answer: The total heat lost to the surroundings when the body is raised from `20°C` to `80°C` in `5 minutes` is **4500 Joules**.
