Let the cold water go up x degrees.
Let the hot water go down 100 - x degrees.
The formula for heat exchange is m*c*delta t
Givens
Ice
deltat = x
m = 0.50 kg
c = 4.18
Hot water
deltat = 100 - x
m = 1.5 kg
c = 4.18
Formula
The heat up = heat down
0.50 * c * x = 1.5 * c * (100 - x) Divide both sides by c
Solution
0.50 *x = 1.5*(100 - x) Remove the brackets.
0.5x = 150 - 1.5x Add 1.5x to both sides.
0.5x + 1.5x = 150 - 1.5x + 1.5x Combine like terms
2x = 150 Divide by 2
x = 75
Answer
A
<span>The total
energy stored is the sum of the energy stored in the capacitors. If the
capacitors are series connected
capacitors, then the charging current is the same for both capacitors. This
means that each capacitor stores the same energy and the stored energy is two
times the energy of any of the capacitors.</span>
