Why does ice float on water?

As shown in fig. p3.64, a closed, rigid tank fitted with a fine-wire electric resistor is filled with refrigerant 22, initially at 2108c, a quality of 80%, and a volume of 0.01 m3. a 12-volt battery provides a 5-amp current to the resistor for 5 minutes. if the final temperature of the refrigerant is 408c, determine the heat transfer, in kj, from the refrigerant.

Ahydroelectric plant takes energy from water and turns it into electrical energy. what are the transformations of energy in the water molecules that are used in the process of generating electricity this way?

Agas contained within a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes three processes in series: process 12: compression with pv= constant from 1 bar and 1 liter to 4 bar. process 23: constant pressure expansion to 1 liter. process 31: constant volume calculate the pressure and volume at each state, and sketch the processes on a p-vdiagram labeled with pressure and volume values at each numbered stat
