- On a cold winter day. you buy roasted chestnuts from a street vendor. Into the pocket of your down parka you put the change he gives you: coins constituting 9.00 g of copper at 12.0C. Your pocket already contains 14.0 g of silver coins at 30.0C. A short time later the temperature of the copper coins is 4.00C and is increasing at a rate of 0.500C/s. At this time, (a) what is the temperature of the silver coins and (b) at what rate is it changing?arrow_forwardObject A is placed in thermal contact with a very large object B of unknown temperature. Objects A and B are allowed to reach thermal equilibrium; object Bs temperature does not change due to its comparative size. Object A is removed from thermal contact with B and placed in thermal contact with another object C at a temperature of 40C. Objects A and C are of comparable size. The temperature of C is observed to be unchanged. What is the temperature of object B?arrow_forwardA copper rod and an aluminum rod of equal diameter are joined end to end in good thermal contact. The temperature of the free end of the copper rod is held constant at 100.C and that of the far end of the aluminum rod is held at 0C.

- - (a) Compute the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water from its freezing point to its normal boiling point. (b) How does your answer to (a) compare to the amount of heat needed to convert 1 kg of water at 100° C to steam at 100°C?arrow_forwardA pitcher throws a 0.142-kg baseball at 47.2 m/s. As it travels 16.8 m to home plate, the ball slows down to 42.5 m/s because of air resistance. Find the change in temperature of the air through which it passes. To find the greatest possible temperature change, you may make the following assumptions. Air has a molar specific heat of CP = 72IR and an equivalent molar mass of 28.9 g/mol. The process is so rapid that the cover of the baseball acts as thermal insulation and the temperature of the ball itself does not change. A change in temperature happens initially only for the air in a cylinder 16.8 m in length and 3.70 cm in radius. This air is initially at 20.0C.arrow_forwardHow much stress is cleated in a steel beam if its temperature changes from 15 to 40 but it cannot expand?
