To make a secure fit, rivets that are larger than the rivet hole are often used and the rivet is cooled (usually in dry ice) before it is placed in the hole. A steel rivet 1.877 cm in diameter is to be placed in a hole 1.875 cm in diameter at 15 ∘C.To what temperature must the rivet be cooled if it is to fit in the hole?

Question

To make a secure fit, rivets that are larger than the rivet hole are often used and the rivet is cooled (usually in dry ice) before it is placed in the hole. A steel rivet 1.877 cm in diameter is to be placed in a hole 1.875 cm in diameter at 15 ∘C.To what temperature must the rivet be cooled if it is to fit in the hole?

A small immersion heater is rated at 375 W . The specific heat of water is 4186 J/kg⋅C∘.Estimate how long it will take to heat a cup of soup (assume this is 250 mL of water) from 19 ∘C to 72 ∘C. Ignore the heat loss to the surrounding environment.
 
A 52 g ice cube at its melting point is dropped into an insulated container of liquid nitrogen. Assume for simplicity that the specific heat of ice is a constant and is equal to 2100 J/kg⋅C∘.How much nitrogen evaporates if it is at its boiling point of 77 K and has a latent heat of vaporization of 200 kJ/kg?
