When you boil potatoes, will your cooking time be reduced with vigorously boiling water instead of gently boiling water? (Directions for cooking spaghetti call for vigorously boiling water—not to lessen cooking time but to prevent something else. If you don’t know what it is, ask a cook.)
- Your answer is partially correct.
An aluminum cup of 140 cm3 capacity is completely filled with glycerin at 25°C. How much glycerin will spill out of the cup if the
temperature of both the cup and glycerin is increased to 30°C? (The linear expansion coefficient of aluminum is 23 x 10-6 1/C°. The
coefficient of volume expansion of glycerin is 5.1 x 10-4 1/C.)

Three liquids are at temperatures of 10°C, 20°C, and 30°C, respectively. Equal masses of the first two liquids are mixed, and the equilibrium temperature is 17°C. Equal masses of the second and third are then mixed, and the equilibrium temperature is 28°C. Find the equilibrium temperature when equal masses of the first and third are mixed.

- Two glass bulbs of volumes 500 cm3 and 200 cm3 are connected by a narrow tube of negligible volume. The apparatus is filled with air and sealed. The initial pressure of the air is 1.0 105 Pa, and the initial temperature is 17C. The smaller bulb is immersed in a large amount of ice at 0C, and the larger bulb is immersed in a large pot of boiling water at a temperature of 100C for a long period of time. Determine the final pressure of the air in the bulbs. Ignore any change in the volume of the glass. Model the air as an ideal gas.arrow_forwardThe mass of a hot-air balloon and its cargo (not including the air inside) is 200 kg. The air outside is at 10.0C and 101 kPa.

- You are planning a birthday party for your niece and need to make at least 4 gallons of Kool-Aid, which you would like to cool down to 32 oF (0 °C) before the party begins. Unfortunately, your refrigerator is already so full of treats that you know there will be no room for the Kool-Aid. So, with a sudden flash of insight, you decide to start with 4 gallons (1 gallon = 3.7854 liters, and a liter (L) is 0.001 cubic meters) of the coldest tap water you can get, which you determine is 50 °F (10 °C), and then cool it down with a 1- quart (1/4 of a gallon) chunk of ice you already have in your freezer. The owner's manual for your refrigerator states that when the freezer setting is on high, the temperature is -20 °C. Will your plan work? You assume that the density of the Kool-Aid is about the same as the density of water. You look in your physics book and find that the density of water is 1.0 g/cm3 (1kg/L), the density of ice is 0.9 g/cm3 (0.9kg/L), the heat capacity of water is 4200 J /…arrow_forwardWhen you drink cold water, your body must expend metabolic energy in order to maintain normal body temperature (37° C) by warming up the water in your stomach. Could drinking ice water, then, substitute for exercise as a way to "burn calories?" Suppose you expend 422 kilocalories during a brisk hour-long walk. How many liters of ice water (0° C) would you have to drink in order to use up 422 kilocalories of metabolic energy? For comparison, the stomach can hold about 1 liter.arrow_forwardA beaker of water at room temperature is placed in an enclosure, and the air pressure in the enclosure is slowly reduced. When the air pressure is reduced sufficiently, the water begins to boil. The temperature of the water does not rise when it boils; in fact, the temperature drops slightly. Explain these phenomena.arrow_forward
- You read in a popular diet blog that the author claims you can lose up to half a pound of body fat per week if, instead of drinking 1.9 liters (i.e., 1.9 kilograms) of water every day, you can eat the same amount of water in the form of ice. The reasoning is that your body must first melt the ice and then bring the ice water up to the body temperature of 37°C, which is a process that requires a significant amount of energy at the expense of “burned” body fat. Thankfully, you just finished discussing heat and phase changes in your physics class, so you can calculate exactly how much energy is expended. The specific heat and latent heat of fusion for water are 4.186 × 103 J/(kg⋅°C) and 3.34×105 J/kg, respectively a) How many kilocalories do you expend when you eat 1.9 kg of ice at 0°C? Note that 1 kcal = 4186 J. b) Assuming the metabolism of one pound of body fat produces 3500 kcal of energy, how many pounds of body fat could you lose in a week just by eating 1.9 kilograms of ice every…arrow_forwardCalculate the osmotic pressure of a solution obtained from mixing 100 ml of a 4.5% solution of urea and 100 ml of a 3.42% solution of sugar solution at a temperature of 300 K., suppose 1 = 0arrow_forwardYour answer is partially correct.

- Carrie is trying to figure out the number of calories in a cube of cheese. To do this, she pours 166.2 mL of water into an aluminum can suspended from a ring stand. She takes the temperature of the water, and finds it to be 19.1 degrees Celsius. Then, she places the 5.23 gram cube of cheese under the can and lights it on fire! While the cheese is burning and for a few minutes after it is done, Carrie records the temperature of the water, finding that it levels out at 45.4 degrees Celsius. How many calories of heat were gained by the water? Please answer to the nearest 0.1 calorie.arrow_forward9arrow_forwardAt sea level and at a body temperature of 37 degrees Celsius, how many oxygen molecules do the lungs contain at the end of a strong inhalation?
