A kettle with $2\, littre$ water at $27\,^oC$ is heated by operating coil heater of power $1\, kW$. The heat is lost to the atmosphere at constant rate $160\, J/sec$, when its lid is open. In how much time will water heated to $77\,^oC$. (specific heat of water $= 4.2\, kJ/kg$) with the lid open ?
A
$8\, min$ $20\, sec$
B
$6\, min$ $2\, sec$
C
$14\, min$
D
$7\, min$
Solution
(Power of heater)time $=$ (Rate of heat loss)time $+\mathrm{mS} \Delta \mathrm{T}$
$1000 t=160 t+(2)(4200)(50)$
$t=500 \mathrm{sec}$
