3. A 3.2 m length of copper pipe extends directly from a hot-water heater in a basement to a faucet on the first floor of a house. If the faucet isn't fixed in place, how much will it rise when the pipe is heated from 20.0° C to 85.9° C. The coefficient of linear expansion for copper is 1.6*10-5 K−1.
Question 38
Incorrect. An insulated Thermos contains 130 cm3 of hot coffee at 88.0°C. You put in a 19.0 g ice cube at its melting point to cool the coffee. By how many degrees has your coffee cooled once the ice has melted and equilibrium is reached? Treat the coffee as though it were pure water and neglect energy exchanges with the environment. The specific heat of water is 4186 J/kg-K. The latent heat of fusion is 333 kJ/kg. The density of water is 1.00 g/cm³. Number i 66.63 Units C°

19. The following fission reaction (shown below) occurs in a nuclear power plant. There are 1.50 x 1016 uranium-235 atoms that are simultaneously undergoing this reaction. The uranium is surrounded by 17.5 kg of heavy water, which has a specific heat capacity of 4.70 x 10³ J/kg °C. If 90% of the energy released in the nuclear reactions is absorbed as thermal energy by the heavy water, determine the increase in temperature of he heavy water. ✔✔✔✔ 235U+n→ Zr + 139 Te + 3(n) 92 40 52 mzr-94 = 93.906 u MTe-139 = 138.935 u Mu-235 = 235.044 u

Radioactive decay of elements in the earth’s interior results in a mean heat flux through the Earth’s surfaceof 5×10−2Wm−2. What is the flux expressed as a fraction of the energy flux due to thermal re-radiation of absorbed solar energy? If radioactive decay were the only heat source for the Earth, what would the Earth’s temperature be?
