A steel casting weighing 2 kg has an initial temperature of 500°c; 25 kg of water initially at 25°c is contained in a perfectly

insulated steel tank weighing 5 kg. the casting is immersed in the water and the system is allowed to come to equilibrium. what is its final temperature? ignore the effects of expansion or contraction, and assume constant specific heats of 4.18 kj⋅kg−1⋅°c−1 for water and 0.50 kj⋅kg−1⋅°c−1 for steel.

Answer:

26.6C

Explanation:

Using an energy balance:

Decrease in internal energy of casting must lead to an increase in internal energy of the tank and water, assuming that no heat flows out of the tank - perfectly insulated.

m_{casting}*C_{p,casting}*(T_{casting} - T_{final})= m_{water}*C_{p,water}*(T_{final} - T_{water}) + m_{tank}*C_{p,tank}*(T_{final} - T_{tank})

2*0.5*(500 - T_{final})= 70*4.18*(T_{final} - 25) + 5*0.5*(T_{final} - 25)\\\\(1+2.5+292.6)*T_{final} = 500+7315+62.5\\\\T_{final} = 26.6C

<span> Plan: Use Q = m · c · ΔT three times. Hot casting cools ΔT_hot = 500°C - Tf. Cold water and steel tank heat ΔT_cold = Tf - 25°C. Set Q from hot casting cooling = Q from cold tank heating.
here
m_cast · c_steel · ΔT_hot = (m_tank · c_steel + m_water · c_water) · ΔT_cold

m_cast · c_steel · (500°C - Tf) = (m_tank · c_steel + m_water · c_water) · (Tf - 25°C)

2.5 kg · 0.50 kJ/(kg K°) · (500°C - Tf) = (5 kg· 0.50 kJ/(kg K°) + 40 kg· 4.18 kJ/(kg K°)) · (Tf - 25°C)

Solve for Tf, remember that K° = C° (i.e. for ΔT's) </span>

What is the difference between a physical change and a chemical change
Contact [7]
A physical change in something doesn't change what the it is. For example, if you break glass, it will still be glass. In a chemical change where there is a chemical reaction, a new thing is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed. For example, when you burn a log. The carbon in the log is reacting to the oxygen to create ashe and smoke

The weights in atwoods machine, starting at rest, attain a velocity of 2ft/sec in one sec. Find the ratio of the masses
Orlov [11]
Refer to the figure shown below.
Let m₁ and m₂ e the two masses.
Let a = the acceleration.
Let T =  tension over the frictionless pulley.

Write the equations of motion.
m₂g - T = m₂a            (1)
T - m₁g = m₁a            (2)

Add equations (1) and (2).
m₂g - T + T - m₁g = (m₁ + m₂)a
(m₂ - m₁)g = (m₁ + m₂)a

Divide through by m₁.
(m₂/m₁ - 1)g = (1 + m₂/m₁)a

Define r = m₂/m₁ as the ratio of the two masses. Then
(r - 1)g = (1 +r)a
r(g-a) = a + g
r = (g - a)/(g + a)

With  = 2 ft/s from rest, the acceleration is
a = 2/32.2 = 0.062 ft/s²
Therefore
r = (32.2 - 0.062)/(32.2 + 0.062) = 0.9962

Answer:
The ratio of masses is 0.9962 (heavier mass divided by the lighter mass).

How do you know which magnitude is higher or how do you compare them?
Paul [167]
Magnitudes are measured by intensity so a 3.4 earthquake is much less stronger than a 4.5 earthquake it’s very literally when measuring them the higher the number the stronger it is
