How Much Heat Must Be Removed to Make 3.1 kg of Shaved Ice at 0°C?

AI Thread Summary
To create 3.1 kg of shaved ice at 0°C, the heat removal required involves calculating the enthalpy of fusion for ice. The discussion emphasizes using standard temperature and pressure (STP) values for accurate calculations. Key resources provided include websites detailing the enthalpy of formation and latent heat of fusion for ice. The latent heat at atmospheric pressure is crucial for determining the total heat that must be removed. Understanding these thermodynamic principles is essential for effective cooling applications.

suppose that 3.1 kg of shaved ice is needed to keep medication cold in a room without a refrigerator. What amount o heat must be removed from the 3.1 kg of water to make ice once it has reached 0 deg C

You need to know the enthalpy of formation for ice. Unless it says at certain temperature and press ure use the formation for STP>

What is the latent heat (at constant pressure,assumed atmospherical pressure,760 Torrs) for icing water/melting ice...?

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...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
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 $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
