a 200-W vacuum cleaner is powered by
an electric motor whose efficiency is 80%.
(Note that the electric motor delivers 200
W of net mechanical power to the fan of
the cleaners). Determine the rule at which

room when running.
During a process, 50 kJ of work is done on a closed system while 20 kJ of heat is lost from the system. If the initial internal energy of the system is 90 kJ, what is the final internal energy of the system?
The Figure shows a solar collector panel embedded in a roof. The panel, which has a surface area of 24 ft2, receives energy from the sun at a rate of 200 Btu/h per ft2 of collector surface. Twenty-five percent of the incoming energy is lost to the surroundings. The remaining energy is used to heat domestic hot water from 90 to 120°F. The water passes through the solar collector with a negligible pressure drop. Neglecting kinetic and potential effects, determine at steady state how many gallons of water at 120°F the collector generates per hour.
