178. Water is being heated in a closed pan on top of a range while being stirred by a paddle
wheel. During the process, 30 kJ of heat is transferred to the water, and 5 kJ of heat is lost to
the surrounding air. The paddle wheel work amounts to 500 N-m. Determine the final energy of
the system if its initial energy is 10 kJ.
A. 35.5 kJ B. 40.5 kJ
C. 25.5 kJ D. 14.5 kJ
A. 35.5 kJ
