To measure specific heat, the student flows air with a velocity of 20 m/s and a temperature of 25C perpendicular to the length
of the tube, as illustrated below. In this time she heats the tube electrically, passing a current of 50 mA through the tube wall. The initial temperature of the tube is 25 C. After 10 min of heating, a thermocouple buried inside the tube wall measures a temperature of 31.2 C. The tube core is sealed and the heat lost from the internal surface of the tube is negligible during measurements. Furthermore, the tube is suspended on two thermally insulating supports. What is the specific heat of the tube?

Explanation:
The equation to calculate the center of mass of a particle system is:
In this case we can arrange for one dimension, assuming the geometric center of the Earth and the ladder are on a line, and assuming original center of mass located at the Earth's geometric center:
Where:
is the mass of the Earth
is the mass of 1 billion people
is the radius of the Earth
is the distance between the center of the Earth and the position of the people (2 m above the Earth's surface)
This is the displacement of Earth's center of mass from the original center.
Answer:
1.7323
Explanation:
To develop this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to refractive indices and Snell's law.
From the data given we have to:
Where n means the index of refraction.
We need to calculate the index of refraction of the liquid, then applying Snell's law we have:
Replacing the values we have:
Therefore the refractive index for the liquid is 1.7323
