    What Determines the Final Temperature of Ice and Water Mix?

    Ok...if that is so...then... 81g*4.190j/kg*Tf + 878g*4.19j/kg*Tf -91970.5 + 81*333 = 0 so Tf = 16.1757

    What Determines the Final Temperature of Ice and Water Mix?

    So then it should be... 878*4.19*(Tf-25)+26973=0 Tf=17.668 That's not correct either...

    What Determines the Final Temperature of Ice and Water Mix?

    Qmelt=81g*333j/g =26973 So... 878*4.19*(Tf-25)+81*2.09*(Tf-0)+26973=0 3848.11Tf=64997.5 Tf=16.89 Which is still wrong...what am I doing wrong now?

    What Determines the Final Temperature of Ice and Water Mix?

    Homework Statement A 81-g ice cube at 0°C is placed in 878 g of water at 25°C. What is the final temperature of the mixture? Homework Equations No heat is loss therefore m*Cp*deltaT+m*Cp*deltaT=0 Cp ice=2.09 Cp water=4.19 The Attempt at a Solution...

    What is the change in length of an aluminum rod after adding 12500 J of energy?

    Homework Statement An aluminum rod is 23.0 cm long at 20°C and has a mass of 350 g. If 12500 J of energy is added to the rod by heat, what is the change in length of the rod? Answer is in mm Homework Equations Q=m*c*delta T deltaL=alpha*L0*deltaT alpha=24x10^-6 c=900j/kg The...

    How Does Angular Acceleration Affect Angular Velocity?

    Homework Statement A large grinding wheel in the shape of a solid cylinder of radius 0.330 m is free to rotate on a frictionless, vertical axle. A constant tangential force of 270 N applied to its edge causes the wheel to have an angular acceleration of 0.984 rad/s2. If the wheel starts...

    From what height was an object dropped?

    Find the height from which you would have to drop a ball so that it would have a speed of 5.9 m/s just before it hits the ground. vf=5.9 v0=0 Not sure what I can do with only this much information...

    Maximizing Motorcycle Jump Height: Solving for the Optimal Speed

    A daredevil on a motorcycle leaves the end of a ramp with a speed of 42.0 m/s as in the figure below. If his speed is 39.8 m/s when he reaches the peak of the path, what is the maximum height that he reaches? Ignore friction and air resistance. So v0=42.0m/s and vf=39.8m/s...what equation am...
