How can I make a Heat Flow Meter?

AI Thread Summary
To create a heat flow meter that measures the temperature difference between two hot surfaces, a foundational understanding of heat transfer principles is essential. Key concepts include heat capacity and the variables influencing heat flow rates. The discussion emphasizes the importance of demonstrating prior knowledge and effort in the subject before seeking detailed assistance. Participants encourage exploring basic heat transfer concepts to build a solid foundation for the project. Engaging with these principles will facilitate a more productive learning experience.

Homework Statement
Hello , i need to make a heat flown meter that will show flown diference between two diffrend hot surfaces. I dont know how to do this so i really need your help.
Relevant Equations
I need help because i dont know how to do it
I tried to created it but i dknt know how to even start

Welcome to the PF. :smile:

You need to show more effort before we can be of tutorial help. What have you learned so far about heat and temperature? What is heat capacity? What variables determine the amount and rate of heat flow between two objects?
 

Thread 'Rolling without slipping on a curved surface'

Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
