Answer:

0.024m^3

Explanation:

=======

Answer:

=======

Given:-

Mass of the block of wood = 24 kg

Volume of wood = 0.032 m^3

Density of water = 1000kg/m^3

Now,

Density of wood is given by,

\frac{m}{v} = \frac{24}{0.032} \\

\frac{m}{v} = 750 \: kg/m ^{3}

Therefore,

The density of wood is 750kg/m^3

By principle of floatation,

Mass \:of\: wood = Mass\: of\: liquid \:displaced

Therefore,

Mass of liquid displaced = 24kg

Volume of liquid displaced (v),

\frac{m}{v} = \frac{24}{1000} \\

\frac{m}{v} = 0.24m ^{3}

Now,

Since the volume of the wood is equal to the volume of water displaced, it is 0.024m^3

=====

Note:

=====

=> The volume of the wood below the water surface is the volume of water displaced.

=> Buoyant\: force = Weight\: of\: the \:displaced\: water.

A 1.50-kg iron horseshoe initially at 550°C is dropped into a bucket containing 25.0 kg of water at 20.0°C. What is the final te
Ber [7]

Answer:

Te =  23.4 °C

Explanation:

Given:-

- The mass of iron horseshoe, m = 1.50 kg

- The initial temperature of horseshoe, Ti_h = 550°C

- The specific heat capacity of iron, ci = 448 J/kgC

- The mass of water, M = 25 kg

- The initial temperature of water, Ti_w = 20°C

- The specific heat capacity of water, cw = 4186 J/kgC

Find:-

What is the final temperature of the water–horseshoe system?

Solution:-

- The interaction of horseshoe and water at their respective initial temperatures will obey the Zeroth and First Law of thermodynamics. The horseshoe at higher temperature comes in thermal equilibrium with the water at lower temperature. We denote the equilibrium temperature as (Te) and apply the First Law of thermodynamics on the system:

                             m*ci*( Ti_h - Te) = M*cw*( Te - Ti_w )

- Solve for (Te):

                             m*ci*( Ti_h ) + M*cw*( Ti_w ) = Te* (m*ci + M*cw )

                             Te = [ m*ci*( Ti_h ) + M*cw*( Ti_w ) ] / [ m*ci + M*cw ]

- Plug in the values and evaluate (Te):

                             Te = [1.5*448*550 + 25*4186*20 ] / [ 1.5*448 + 25*4186 ]

                             Te = 2462600 / 105322

                             Te =  23.4 °C
