The instruction booklet for your pressure cooker indicates that its highest setting is 12.7 psi. You know that standard atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psi, so the booklet must mean 12.7 psi above atmospheric pressure. At what temperature degrees Celsius will your food cook in this pressure cooker set on "high"? Express your answer numerically in degrees Celsius.

The cubit is an ancient unit of measurement for length, where 1 cubit is approximately 444.25 mm. A cubic cubit (cubit3) is a measurement of volume. You have a steel container completely filled with gasoline. How many cubic cubits will spill out of the 32.3 cubits3 container when the temperature is raised from 19 °C to 47.3 °C ? (3DD
Luis and Salman are trying to increase the temperature of a substance by heating it. . What is the quantity of heat in kilojoules required to raise the temperature of 1.2 kg of the substance from3°C to 110 °C at a pressure of 1.0 atm? Please keep three significant figures. Useful information: Melting point = 293 K heat of fusion = 3.90 x 104 J/kg. boiling point is 423 K heat of vaporization 7.80 x 104 J/kg (at a pressure of 1.0 atm). The specific heats for the solid phase is 600 J/(kg K) The specific heats for the liquid phase is 1000 J/(kg K) The specific heats for the gaseous phase is 400 J/(kg K)
You happen to come across a piece of metal that has a density of p 8.12 g/cm3 when the temperature is To = 42.5 °C. If the metal is cooled to a temperature of T1 0.00 °C, does the density change? Yes, the density will decrease since the volume changes. Yes, since the metal contracts and the mass is constant, the density will increase. No, because as the volume changes so does the mass. No, density does not depend on temperature. Calculate the density of the piece of metal at this temperature, P1. The coefficient of volume expansion for this piece of metal is B = 7.62 x 10-5 1/°C. -0.0263 Pi = g/cm3 Incorrect

Suppose you start your day in Denver, on a cool 10°C spring day. The local atmospheric pressure is 85 kPa. You fill your car’s tires until the gauge shows 210 kPa (about 30 psi). You then drive up to Fairplay, Colorado, where the atmospheric pressure is lower—70 kPa—and the temperature drops to 0°C.When you finish lunch, you check your tire pressure. What does the gauge read?

The coefficient of linear expansion of copper is 17x10^-6 /C°. The specific heat capacity of copper is 390 J/kg.C°. Round-off your answer to the nearest thousandths. Do not type the unit of your final answer.
The following data are given for the pressure and temperature variation in air as a function of elevation: Elevation in [m] 0. Temperature in [°C]_pressure [atm] 28 1. 1000. 25 0.796 2000. 19 0.6314 3000. 12 0.4982 4000. 3 0.3905 5000. -1 0.3043 6000. 11 0.2356 You want to check if these measurements are correct. You are going to use a balloon and rise in the corresponding altitudes. If the balloon weighs 1000kg (all included, weight of yourself, equipment, inflated part etc) calculate the volume of inflated part of the balloon, so that the initial acceleration is 15m/s?. Assume that the balloon is a sphere and neglect the deflated part of the balloon as far as volume is concerned. Can you verify all measurements with this volume of the balloon? What kind of adjustments do you need to make in order to complete your mission?

Note: Round off your answer up to 3 decimal places. Input only the numerical value. Researchers are conducting a study to quantity the thermal conductivity of a composite material. A square box is made from 838 cm2 sheets of the composite insulating material that is 2.8 cm thick. A 201 W heater is placed inside the box. Sensors attached to the box show that the interior and exterior surfaces of one face have reached the constant temperatures of 81°C and 38°C. What is the thermal conductivity in W/m-K?
A hot air balloon uses the principle of buoyancy to create lift. By making the air inside the balloon less dense then the surrounding air, the balloon is able to lift objects many times its own weight. A large hot air balloon has a maximum balloon volume of 2090 m3. a. If the air temperature in the balloon is 54 °C, how much additional mass, in kilograms, can the balloon lift? Assume the molar mass of air is 28.97 g/mol, the air density is 1.20 kg/m3, and the air pressure is 1 atm.
Before leaving on a trip to Melbourne Beach, Florida, you measure the pressure inside the tires of your car at a gas station. At – 7.5 C (chilly!), the tire pressure is 206.5 kPa. When you arrive in Florida, you check the tire pressure and find it is now 236.5 kPa. What is the temperature in Melbourne Beach?
