AI Thread Summary
Mixing 10g of ice at -10 degrees Celsius with water will result in the ice absorbing heat until it reaches 0 degrees Celsius, where it will start melting. The specific heat capacity of ice is 2.1 J/g K, and the latent heat of fusion is 336 J/g, which will affect the total energy calculations. The discussion highlights the need for additional information, such as the amount and temperature of the water being mixed with the ice, to fully solve the problem. Without this data, the outcome remains incomplete. The final temperature of the mixture will stabilize at 0 degrees Celsius once the ice has melted.

mixing with water
 
OK. How much water? Is this going to be a Twenty Questions session?
 
Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
Thread 'Struggling to make relation between elastic force and height'
Hello guys this is what I tried so far. I used the UTS to calculate the force it needs when the rope tears. My idea was to make a relationship/ function that would give me the force depending on height. Yeah i couldnt find a way to solve it. I also thought about how I could use hooks law (how it was given to me in my script) with the thought of instead of having two part of a rope id have one singular rope from the middle to the top where I could find the difference in height. But the...
