A thermally isolated system is made up of a hot piece of aluminum and a cold piece of copper; the aluminum and the copper are in

thermal contact. The specific heat capacity of aluminum is more than double that of copper. Which object experiences the greater temperature change during the time the system takes to reach thermal equilibrium?

Answer:

copper will have more change in temperature as compare with aluminum

Explanation:

Hot piece of copper is made in contact with cold piece of aluminium

So here thermal energy transfer will take place from copper to aluminium

so by energy conservation we can say that heat given by copper is same as the heat absorbed by aluminium.

now we have

m_1s_1\Delta T_1 = m_2s_2\Delta T_2

here we know that

s_1 = specific heat capacity of copper

s_2 = specific heat capacity of aluminum

given that specific heat capacity of aluminium is more than double that of copper

so we can say

s_2 = 2s_1

so here if the mass of copper and aluminium is same then

\Delta T_1 = 2 \Delta T_2

so temperature change of copper is twice the temperature change of aluminium

So copper will have more change in temperature as compare with aluminum

comparing the blank of an object with that of a liquid will tell you where or not the objects will float in that liquid
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer: Density

Explanation: Recall Archimedes Principle. There are two forces acting an object submerged in a liquid: the force of gravity and the  (opposite directed) force of buoyancy. The buoyancy is proportional to the mass of the liquid displaced by the submerged part of the object.

Density is the ratio of mass to volume. Therefore if the density of the submerged object is higher than that of the displaced liquid, the net force will point in the direction of the gravity (object will sink). In the opposite case, the net force will point in the direction of the buoyant force (upward) and the object will float.
