AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the relationship between pressure, distance, and temperature for an ice cube placed at the origin in an open air environment with a 15-degree Celsius temperature difference. It is noted that while the pressure remains constant, the temperature increases with distance from the ice cube, raising questions about how these variables interact. Participants emphasize the need for relevant equations and a clearer problem statement to facilitate understanding. The importance of adhering to homework templates for structured responses is also highlighted. Overall, the conversation seeks to clarify the principles governing pressure and temperature in this context.

what is the pressure vs distance graph if an ice cube is placed at the origin and the temperature of ice cube is maintained constant anytime,in open air,with a temperature difference of 15 degree celsius between the atmosphere and ice cube at normal atmpospheric pressure?

What is the starting point? What is the principle based on which you are trying to solve the problem?
 
According to how you phrased your question, it seems as if your distance shouldn't affect anything; the temperature of your ice cube stays the same, as well as the pressure. Is there any relevant equations your class is going by, or a better context for the question?

In your P vs. d graph, pressure is remaining constant while d is changing, so what other graphs have you seen where something is constant over an interval?

Thanks for replying.Since the ice cube is placed at the origin,the temperature raises as we move farther away from the origin.But temperature and pressure are related to each other.In simple,what would be the relationship between pressure and temperature in open system?

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...
Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'
Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...
