Relating Time and Temperature Change in a Closed System with Constant Volume

AI Thread Summary
To determine the time required for an 8000 L box to change temperatures from 300K to 400K, additional information is necessary beyond just the volume and temperature change. Factors such as molarity, mass, and momentum may influence the calculation, but the specific type of problem must be clarified. The discussion emphasizes the need for a complete problem statement to provide an accurate solution. Without this context, it's challenging to assess the thermal dynamics involved. A comprehensive understanding of the system's properties is essential for solving the temperature change over time.

The answer to that question depends on a lot more than the information you have given.
 
I have more information. I have molarity, mass, and momentum. What else do I need?
 
Maybe you should just post the complete question. I have no idea so far of even what KIND of problem it is.
 
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...
