The discussion focuses on calculating the final temperature of tea after pouring it into a glass cup. The initial conditions are 0.22 liters of tea at 95 degrees Celsius and a 150-gram glass cup at 25 degrees Celsius. A user attempted to solve the equation 0.21(95-T) = 150(25+T) but realized the need to correctly use 0.22 instead of 0.21. The correct approach involves setting up the heat transfer equation properly to find the final temperature. Accurate calculations are essential for determining the final temperature in this scenario.

If 0.22L of tea at 95 degrees C, is poured into a 150g glass cup initially at 25 degrees C, what will the final temperature be, assuming no heat is lost to the surroundings?
I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19.
For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question.
Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point?
Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P.
Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
Let's declare that for the cylinder,
mass = M = 10 kg
Radius = R = 4 m
For the wall and the floor,
Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5
For the hanging mass,
mass = m = 11 kg
First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on.
Force on the hanging mass
$$mg - T = ma$$
Force(Cylinder) on y
$$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$
Force(Cylinder) on x
$$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$
