Snoop Dogg, in an effort to get laid back (with his mind on his money and his money on his mind) pours himself a gin and juice. He mixes 0.124 kg (about 3 shots) of gin with 0.576 kg (about a pint) of orange juice. The gin starts at 20.0˚C, room temperature. The juice is refrigerated and starts at 2.89 ˚C. What is the final temperature after mixing of the gin and juice? The specific heat of gin is 3460 J/kg˚C and the specific heat of orange juice is 3730 J/kg˚C.
A sword is heated up to 226 °C, it is put into a nearby barrel of water that is at 18.4 °C. What mass of water would be needed to cool the sword to 30.0˚C, bringing the system to thermal equilibrium? The sword is 35.4 kg and is made of steel. The specific heat of water is = 4186 J/kg ˚C. The specific heat of steel is = 502 J/kg ˚C
You are planning on installing a new above-ground swimming pool in your backyard. The pool will be rectangular with dimensions
32.0 m x 10.0 m. It will be filled with fresh water to a depth of 2.20 m. In order to provide the appropriate structural support, you
wish to determine the following.
(a) Determine the force exerted on the bottom of the pool by the water (in N).
(No Response) N
(b) Determine the force exerted on each end of the pool by the water (in N). (Assume the end is the 10.0 m wall.)
(No Response) N
(c) Determine the force exerted on each side of the pool by the water (in N). (Assume the side is the 32.0 m wall.)
(No Response) N
(d) You wish to have swimming parties with your children and grandchildren. At a given time, you might have 23 people with an
average mass of 75.0 kg in the pool. You need to determine if such parties will affect your calculations for the required
strength of materials supporting your pool.
The parties will not affect the required strength since…

(Ignore the thickness of the tank in your calculation.) You want to punch a second hole higher on the tank so that the streams of water from the two holes arrive at the same position on the table, in a catch basin at a distance d from the right edge of the stand. A pump will continuously carry water from the catch basin back up to the top of the tank to keep the water level fixed.
