4.After the sinking of RMS Titanic, US operated the International Ice patrol with the purpose of monitoring the presence and movements of icebergs in the Atlantic and Arctic oceans. Once, they observed a unique tabular iceberg in a form of a rectangle (250 km x 50 km x 300 m). How many years would it take to melt the iceberg solely by heat from the sun if the ice absorbs a mean of 98 J/m2-s, 12.5 hrs per day? Note: the exposed area for heating is 250 km x 50 km and the density is 920 kg/m3.

A brick lies perilously close to the edge of the flat roof of a building. The roof edge is 50 ft above street level, and the brick has 510.0 J of potential energy with respect to street level. Someone edges the brick off the roof, and it begins to fall. What is the brick’s kinetic energy when it is 35 ft above street level? What is the brick’s kinetic energy the instant before it hits the street surface?
A student investigates the enthalpy of solution, ΔHsoln for ammonium chloride, NH4Cl. In addition to the salt, the student has access to a calorimeter, a balance with a precision of ±0.1 g, and a thermometer with a precision of ±0.1°C. To measure ΔHsoln for NH4Cl, the student adds 904.0 g of water, initially at 31.0 °C to a calorimeter and adds 155 g of NH4Cl (s), stirring to dissolve. After the NH4Cl dissolves completely, the temperature of the solution is 90.0 °C. Assume the calorimeter was perfectly insulated and the specific heat of the solution was 4.2 J/(g·K). (a) Calculate the q for the dissolving of NH4Cl in water. Include units and proper sign in your answer. Show all work. (b) Calculate the ΔHsoln for NH4Cl, in kJ/molrxn. Include units and proper sign in your answer. Show all work. (c) Is the dissolving of NH4Cl endothermic or exothermic? Justify your answer.
