    Change in entropy when mixing cold and hot water

    So then i have: $$ \Delta S = \int_{T_0}^{T_1} \frac{cm}{T}dT = cm(ln(T_1)-ln(T_0)) $$ now when i compute ##\Delta S## for cold and hot $$ \Delta S_{\text{total}} = cm(ln(T_n)-ln(T_H)+ln(T_c)-ln(T_n)) = cm(ln(T_c)-ln(T_h)) $$ Where ## T_n ## is temperature at balanced state. Now ##\Delta...

    Change in entropy when mixing cold and hot water

    ## \int \frac{dQ}{T} = \int \frac{mc}{T}dT ## ?

    Change in entropy when mixing cold and hot water

    Well $$ T = \frac{dQ}{dS} \implies dT = d(\frac{dQ}{dS}) $$ Not quite sure how I would do this? (this one probably not even in right direction)

    Change in entropy when mixing cold and hot water

    $$ S = \int \frac{1}{T}dQ $$ but what from now? this equation has ## \Delta T ## but not T $$ Q = cm \Delta T $$ I think I want ## T(Q) ## so I can integrate this properly?

    Change in entropy when mixing cold and hot water

    I tried following: $$ dS_{\text{total}} = |\frac{dQ}{T_c}| |\frac{dQ}{T_H}| $$ where ## T_h ## is temperature of hot water and ## T_c ## is temperature of cold water. Coefficient for water wasn't provided in the assignment so i used following value c = 4190 J/kgK. $$ dS_{\text{total}} =...

    How Is Internal Energy Calculated for an Ideal Gas Using Temperature Change?

    I have the definition of change in internal energy. $$ \Delta U = Q - W $$ I can get the work by $$ W = \int_{V_1}^{V_2} p dV = p \Delta V $$ however the pressure isn't constant so this won't do. ## W ## is work done by the gas and ## Q ## is amount of heat energy brought into the system. I'm...

    Thermal balance in calorimeter after adding lead

    Any ideas on how i could formulate this into equation? Could you give a hint? I don't know how i can form equation with final temperature?

    Thermal balance in calorimeter after adding lead

    Since ΔT is change in temperature, the container and it's contents and the led most have same temperature difference when the led is added. I tried by assuming that energy released by the led is same as the amount that container and it's contents absorb. Meaning Q1-Q2 = 0 => Q1 = Q2. $$ \Delta...

    Derive thermal expansion of area from length

    I tried following: $$ \Delta l = \alpha l_0 \Delta T $$ $$ (\Delta l)^2 l_0 = \alpha l_0^2 \Delta T \Delta l $$ $$ \Delta A l_0 = \alpha A_0 \Delta T $$ $$ \Delta A = \frac{ \alpha A_0 \Delta T }{ l_0 } $$ If we remember that: $$ \Delta l = \alpha l_0 \Delta T $$ So we have $$ \Delta A = \frac{...

    Maximum height for water from a fire hose

    I tried Bernoulli's equation and ended up with this. $$ p_1 + \frac{1}{2}pv^2_1 = p_2 + \frac{1}{2}pv_2^2 $$ Speed can be expressed as $$ v = \frac{Q}{\pi (\frac{d}{2})^2} $$ $$ \implies v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{p_1-p_2}{\rho}+(\frac{Q}{(\frac{d}{2})}^2 \pi)^2\cdot 2} $$ when i compute with numbers i...

    Maximum height for water from a fire hose

    Homework Statement Fire hose has diameter of 4.0 cm and flow rate of 10 L/s. There is pressure of 2.2 bar inside the hose. How high the water can go at best? Water density is 1.00E3 kg/m^3 and air pressure outside the hose is 1.0 bar. Homework Equations Flow rate $$ Q = Av $$ Newtons...

    How much sea water is needed to keep a submarine still at 30 meters depth?

    Yes i think it's suppose to be 1.03*10^3 kg/m³. There is mistake in the description of the assignment.

    How much sea water is needed to keep a submarine still at 30 meters depth?

    And the sea water density is used is 997kg/m³

    How much sea water is needed to keep a submarine still at 30 meters depth?

    The deeper you go the greater the pressure caused by water is. More water above submarine => greater pressure. I don't see how this would affect the buoyancy of the submarine? The force caused by pressure is distributed evenly on top, bottom and sides of the submarine, meaning the sum of the...
