Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around a physics problem involving an ice cube placed at the origin, with a constant temperature maintained while experiencing a temperature difference of 15 degrees Celsius with the surrounding atmosphere at normal atmospheric pressure. The focus is on understanding the relationship between pressure and distance in this context.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Conceptual clarification, Assumption checking

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • Participants are questioning the initial setup and principles underlying the problem, particularly how distance might influence pressure when temperature is held constant. There are inquiries about relevant equations and the context of the problem, as well as the relationship between pressure and temperature in an open system.

Discussion Status

The discussion is ongoing, with participants seeking clarification on the original poster's question and encouraging the use of a structured template for homework queries. There is an exploration of how temperature changes with distance from the ice cube and its implications for pressure.

Contextual Notes

There is a noted need for the original poster to provide a complete problem statement and any relevant equations, as well as to clarify their attempts at solving the problem. The discussion highlights the importance of context in understanding the relationships between the variables involved.

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?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
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?

This is still unclear.
Please post the whole question exactly as given to you.
Also, since this is a homework forum, you need to complete the template. Do not delete it.
Quote any standard equations you suspect may be relevant and show some attempt or thoughts.
