- Consider an object with any one of the shapes displayed in Table 10.2. What is the percentage increase in the moment of inertia of the object when it is warmed from 0C to 100C if it is composed of (a) copper or (b) aluminum? Assume the average linear expansion coefficients shown in Table 16.1 do not vary between 0C and 100C. (c) Why are the answers for parts (a) and (b) the same for all the shapes?arrow_forwardThe thermal conductivities of human tissues vary greatly. Fat and skin have conductivities of about 0.20 W/m K and 0.020 W/m K, respectively, while other tissues inside the body have conductivities of about 0.50 W/m K. Assume that between the core region of the body and the skin sin face lies a skin layer of 1.0 mm, fat layer of 0.50 cm, and 3.2 cm of other tissues. (a) Find the R-factor for each of these layers, and the equivalent R-factor for all layers taken together, retaining two digits. (b) Find the rate of energy loss when the core temperature is 37C and the exterior temperature is 0C. Assume that both a protective layer of clothing and an insulating layer of unmoving air a absent, and a body area of 2.0 m2.arrow_forwardSuppose a gas-filled incandescent light bulb is manufactured so that the gas inside the bulb is at atmospheric pressure when the bulb has a temperature of 20.0 . (a) Find the gauge pressure inside such a bulb when it is hot, assuming its average temperature is 60.0 (an approximation) and neglecting any change in volume due to thermal expansion or gas leaks. (b) The actual final pressure for the light bulb will be less than calculated in part (a) because the glass bulb will expand. Is this effect significant?arrow_forward
- An ideal gas initially at 300 K undergoes an isobaric expansion at 2.50 kPa. If the volume increases from 1.00 m3 to 3.00 m3 and 12.5 kJ is transferred to the gas by heat, what are (a) the change in its internal energy and (b) its final temperature?arrow_forwardAn aluminum rod 0.500 m in length and with a cross sectional area of 2.50 cm2 is inserted into a thermally insulated vessel containing liquid helium at 4.20 K. The rod is initially at 3(H) K. (a) If one-halt of the rod is inserted into the helium, how many liters of helium boil off by the time the inserted half cools to 4.20 K? Assume the upper half does not yet cool, (b) If the circular surface of the upper end of the rod is maintained at 300 K. what is the approximate boil-off rate of liquid helium in liters per second after the lower half has reached 4.20 K? (Aluminum has thermal conductivity of 3 100 YV/m K at 4.20 K; ignore its temperature variation. The density of liquid helium is 125 kg/m3.)arrow_forwardThe height of the Washington Monument is measured to be 170.00 m on a day when the temperature is 35.0 . What will its height be on a day when the temperature falls to -10.0 ? Although the monument is made of limestone, assume that its coefficient of thermal expansion is the same as that of marble. Give your answer to five significant figures.arrow_forward
- A company advertises that it delivers helium at a gauge pressure of 1.72107 Pa in a cylinder of volume 43.8 L. How many balloons can be inflated to a volume of 4.00 L with that amount of helium? Assume the pressure inside the balloons is 1.72105 Pa and the temperature in the cylinder and the balloons is 25.0 .arrow_forwardAt 20.0C, an aluminum ring has an inner diameter of 5.0000 cm and a brass rod has a diameter of 5.050 0 cm. (a) If only the ring is warmed, what temperature most it reach so that it will just slip over the rod? (b) What If? If both the ring and the rod are warmed together, what temperature must they both reach so that the ring barely slips over the rod? (c) Would this latter process work? Explain.arrow_forwardAir Ice Water A 5.0 cm slab has formed on an outdoor tank of water (Fig. 18-47). The air is at – 10°C. Find the rate of ice formation (centimeters per hour). The ice has thermal con- ductivity 0.0040 cal/s-cm-C and density 0.92 g/cm. Assume there is no energy transfer through the walls or bottom. Figure 18-47 Problem 61.arrow_forward
- (a) You have a styrofoam container with 815 g of a soft drink (specific heat of 4,100 J/(kg · °C)) at 29.0° and you add a 60 g chunk of ice at 0°C. Assume the liquid and water mix uniformly as the ice melts and determine the final temperature of the mixture (in °C). 375.31 X Since the mixture is thermally isolated, the heat gained by the ice and the associated ice water is equal to the heat lost by the liquid. Write expressions for the heat gained by the ice as it changes from a solid to a liquid, gained by the ice water as it warms to the final temperature, and lost by the liquid as it cools to the final temperature. °C (b) What If? What is the minimum mass of the ice cube (in g) that will result in a final mixture at exactly 0°C? 290.1 garrow_forward*59 In Fig. 18-45a, two identical rec- tangular rods of metal are welded end Ti to end, with a temperature of T1 = 0°C on the left side and a temperature of T = 100°C on the right side.
