yes, you are right, thank you. I figured it out today with some help.

Using the given equation I get T2=71.8C. Seems a bit high to me. Any other suggestions? I used intial temp. of water=25C, and initial temp of ice=0C.

Homework Statement A 400 cm3 glass is filled with 100 g of ice at 0°C and 170 g of water at 25°C. Characterize the content of the glass after equilibrium has been reached. Neglect heat transfer to and from the environment. _ g (mass of water) _ g (mass of ice) _°C (equilibrium...

The coefficient of thermal expansion for steel is (10.5e-6), according to my book.

Homework Statement A metal bar is 1.90 m long with a coefficient of thermal expansion of, 1.34e10-5 (K-1). It is rigidly held between two fixed beams. When the temperature rises, the metal bar takes on the shape of the arc of a circle. What is the radius of curvature of the circle when the...
