In winter, a canal in Canada has an ice layer on its surface. The depth from the surface to the bottom of the canal is 2.2m. If the temperature of the air above the ice is-5.4 °C and the temperature of water at the bottom of the canal is 3.9 °C, what would be the thickness of the ice layer? (Please write your answer in the box without rounding. Write what you see on the calculator up to two decimal points WITHOUT UNIT.)
Pertaining to Lab 3 Q1 a and b, calculate how much radiation is emitted by the Sun and the Earth (assuming the Sun's average surface temperature is 6000K and the Earth's average temperature is 300K). Please put the entire number that you get as your answer and do not write it in scientific notation.
How much heat is transferred in 9 minutes through a glass window of size 1.4 m by 1.3 m, if its thickness is 0.7 cm and the inside and outside temperatures are 25°C and 6°C respectively. Write your answer in MJ. Thermal conductivity of glass = 0.8 W/m°C
Using the equation below and the data for “45 degrees celsius” (use your actual measured temperature), demonstrate that the relationship between temperature and pressure is in the Kelvin scale and not the Celsius scale. Explain your result. My actual measured temperature was 45.6 degrees celsius with a pressure of 106.93 kPa. use the equation (P1/T1)=(P2/T2)
Why is it important to collect more than one set of data for each temperature? Why compute an average?
A thermometer is taken from an indoor enclosure to the outdoor environment, where the air temperature is 5 . After 1 minute, the thermometer reads 55 , and after 5 minutes it reads 30 . What is the temperature of the indoor enclosure? Note:The exercise in the image is in Spanish, but it is easy to understand. explain the steps you perform, step by step please check carefully, every step you make, and check if the answer is correct, please! because usually the answer I get at bartleby is wrong.... so check if the answer is correct, thank you!

Solve the following problems systematically and show how you arrived at the final answer. 1. Calculate amount of heat that must be absorbed by 10.0 gram of ice at 200C to convert it to liquid water at 600C. Given: Specific heat of ice = 2.1 J/g0C Specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g0C Heat fus = 6.0 kJ/mol

According to the Delaware River Port Authority, the total length of the Walt Whitman Bridge is nominally 11,982 feet. Assuming that the bridge was made entirely of steel, by how many meters does the bridge’s length change as its temperature rises from a winter temperature of 5°F to a summer temperature of 105 °F? Length change = _________meters. Be sure to first convert all lengths and temperatures to S.I. units
