Heat and Thermodynamics question

2019 · 12 Apr · Shift 2 · Q49

JEE MainPhysicsHeat and ThermodynamicsMCQ+4 / −1
One kg of water, at 20oC, heated in an electric kettle whose heating element has a mean (temperature averaged) resistance of 20 Ω\OmegaΩ. The rms voltage in the mains is 200 V. Ignoring heat loss from the kettle, time taken for water to evaporate fully, is close to : [Specific heat of water = 4200 J/(kg oC), Latent heat of water = 2260 kJ/kg]

Correct answer: B

  1. Given data

    • Mass of water: m=1 kgm = 1\,\text{kg}m=1kg
    • Initial temperature: 20∘C20^\circ\text{C}20∘C
    • Final state: fully evaporated at 100∘C100^\circ\text{C}100∘C
    • Specific heat of water: c=4200 J/(kg∘C)c = 4200\,\text{J/(kg}^\circ\text{C)}c=4200J/(kg∘C)
    • Latent heat of vaporization: L=2260 kJ/kg=2.26×106 J/kgL = 2260\,\text{kJ/kg} = 2.26 \times 10^6\,\text{J/kg}L=2260kJ/kg=2.26×106J/kg
    • Resistance of heating element: R=20 ΩR = 20\,\OmegaR=20Ω
    • RMS voltage: V=200 VV = 200\,\text{V}V=200V
  2. Electrical power supplied

    For a resistor, P=V2RP = \frac{V^2}{R}P=RV2​ P=(200)220=4000020=2000 WP = \frac{(200)^2}{20} = \frac{40000}{20} = 2000\,\text{W}P=20(200)2​=2040000​=2000W

  3. Heat required to raise temperature from 20∘C20^\circ\text{C}20∘C to 100∘C100^\circ\text{C}100∘C Q1=mcΔTQ_1 = mc\Delta TQ1​=mcΔT Q1=1×4200×(100−20)Q_1 = 1 \times 4200 \times (100-20)Q1​=1×4200×(100−20) Q1=4200×80=336000 JQ_1 = 4200 \times 80 = 336000\,\text{J}Q1​=4200×80=336000J

  4. Heat required to evaporate 1 kg water at 100∘C100^\circ\text{C}100∘C Q2=mLQ_2 = mLQ2​=mL Q2=1×2.26×106=2.26×106 JQ_2 = 1 \times 2.26 \times 10^6 = 2.26 \times 10^6\,\text{J}Q2​=1×2.26×106=2.26×106J

  5. Total heat required Q=Q1+Q2Q = Q_1 + Q_2Q=Q1​+Q2​ Q=336000+2.26×106Q = 336000 + 2.26 \times 10^6Q=336000+2.26×106 Q=2.596×106 JQ = 2.596 \times 10^6\,\text{J}Q=2.596×106J

  6. Time taken Using t=QPt = \frac{Q}{P}t=PQ​ t=2.596×1062000=1298 st = \frac{2.596 \times 10^6}{2000} = 1298\,\text{s}t=20002.596×106​=1298s

    Convert into minutes: t=129860≈21.6 mint = \frac{1298}{60} \approx 21.6\,\text{min}t=601298​≈21.6min

  7. Closest option t≈22 minutest \approx 22\,\text{minutes}t≈22minutes

Therefore, the correct option is B.
