A 1.28-kg sample of water at 10.0 °C is in a calorimeter. You drop a piece of steel with a mass of 0.385 kg at 215 °C into it. A
fter the sizzling subsides, what is the final equilibrium temperature? (Make the reasonable assumptions that any steam produced condenses into liquid water during the process of equilibration and that the evaporation and condensation don’t affect the outcome, as we’ll see in the next section.)
Assuming that the water and steel are into an <em>adiabatic calorimeter</em> (there's no heat transferred to the enviroment), the temperature of both is identical when the system gets to the equilibrium
Refraction is an effect that occurs when a light wave, incident at an angle away from the normal, passes a boundary from one medium into another in which there is a change in velocity of the light.The wavelength decreases as the light enters the medium and the light wave changes direction.
