8-45 An iron block of unknown mass at 85°C is dropped into an insulated tank that contains 100 L of water at 20°C. At the same time, a paddle wheel driven by a 200-W motor is activated to stir the water. It is observed that thermal equilibrium is established after 20 min with a final temperature of 24°C. Assuming the surroundings to be at 20°C, determine a) the mass of the iron block and b) the exergy destroyed during this process. | |
