The thermal expansion coefficient of copper is 17 x 10^-6 degrees celcius -1. The specific heat capacity is 0.385 kJ/kg degrees celcius. Question A: The copper is heated to 400 degrees celcius. What is the new length? Give the answer in meters and with 4 digits of precision after the decimal. Question B: The hot copper is then quenched by dunking the entire rod in a bucket with 10 kg of water at 20 degrees celcius. The specific heat capaciy of water is 4.18 kJ/kg degrees celcius. If none of the water turns to steam what is the equilibrium temp of the copper rod and water? Please give the answer in degrees celcius Question C: You measure the equilbrium temp and find that it is 24 degrees celcius. If the latent heat of vaporization of water is 2,260 kJ/kg, what mass of water turned to steam? Answer in gramsarrow_forwardHeat Q, which has the SI unit of joule (J), is the quantity in mechanical engineering that describes the transit of energy from one location to another. The equation for the flow of heat during the time interval At through an insulated wall is KAAT Q = (Тh — T) where k is the thermal conductivity of the material from which the wall is made, A and L are the wall's area and thickness, and Th – T; is the difference (in degrees Celsius) between the high- and low-temperature sides of the wall. By using the principle of dimensional consistency, what is the correct dimension for thermal conductivity in the SI? The lowercase Greek character kappa (K) is a conventional mathematical symbol used for thermal conductivity. Appendix A summarizes the names and symbols of Greek letters. О a.

Assume the temperature of the inner surface of the layer corresponds to internal body temperature, or 36.7 °C, and the temperature of the outer surface of the layer corresponds to skin temperature, or 34.0 °C. Take the total surface area of the layer to be 1.50 m² and use a value of 0.413 W/(m-C°) for the average thermal conductivity of the layer. Number Unitsarrow_forward

You then need to drop the temperature of the coffee, initially at 90.0°C, to the ordered temperature. In order to simplify the calculations, you will start by assuming that coffee has the specific heat and density as if water. In the following parts, you will remove these simplifications. Solve now this problem assuming the density is 1.000 g/ml for coffee and its specific heat capacity is 4.184 J/(g ºC). If you had used ice cubes to cool the coffee, your calculation of q would have been a two- step process: (1) the ice at 0 oC first has to melt (energy added to go from solid to liquid; and then (2) to warm the liquid from 0 oC to the final temperature where q = mice cice + mwater cwater ∆T where cice = 2.11 J/ g . oC cwater = 4.184 J/ g . oC (Note: there is no ∆T for the first step since melting of the ice occurs at 0 oC, no temperature change) What…arrow_forwardIn experiment 1, two surfaces with a temperature difference of 10 C are connected by a slab of material with area 100 cm^2 and length (between the surfaces) of 10 cm. In experiment 2, the material is of the same type, but the temperature difference is 20 C, the area is 200 cm^2, and the length is 40 cm.

Assume that the coffee starts at a normal room temperature of 25°C. Step 1: Guess an answer. Step 2: Estimate the volume of the coffee in mL and the final temperature that you want to attain. Step 3: Assume coffee has the same density and thermal properties of water. Find its heat capacity (specific heat times mass) in appropriate units.
