Jose has a cup of hot coffee, at 45°C. He adds some warm milk, and the resulting mixture is now 40°C. Does the mixture have more, less or the same amount of heat? Why?
The fundamental frequency on a aluminum string that is fixed at both ends is 468 Hz. The string is then cooled 174°C and as such its length changes. Determine how much the fundamental frequency will change as a result assuming the tension remains constant.
What mass of ice at -14 Celsius will be needed to cool 200cm cube of an orange drink from 25 Celsius to 10 Celsius.( Specific fusion of ice= 3.36×10^5.specific heat capacity of ice= 2100. Specific heat capacity of water= 4200Jkg^-1
A piece of copper of mass 300g at a temperature of 950 Celsius is quickly transferred to a vessel of negligible thermal capacity containing 250g of water at 25 Celsius . If final steady temperature of the mixture is 100 ceslsius.calculate the mass of the water that boil away . (Specific heat capacity of copper=4.2×10^2. specific heat capacity of water=4.2×10^3. latent heat of vaporization of steam=2.26×10^6)
