Rubbing your hands together warms them by converting work into thermal energy. If a woman rubs her hands back and forth for a total of 20 rubs, at a distance of 7.50 cm per rub, and with an average frictional force of 40.0 N, what is the temperature increase? The mass of tissues warmed is only 0.100 kg mostly in the palms and fingers. Your answer must have three significant figures and the temperature change in centigrade.
The temperature C of a fresh cup of coffee t minutes after it is poured is given by
C = 125e−0.03t + 67 degrees Fahrenheit.
(a) Make a graph of C versus t.
I answered ( a) correctly
(b) The coffee is cool enough to drink when its temperature is 145 degrees. When will the coffee be cool enough to drink? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) min(c) What is the temperature of the coffee in the pot? (Note: We are assuming that the coffee pot is being kept hot and is the same temperature as the cup of coffee when it was poured. Round your answer to the nearest degree.) °F(d) What is the temperature in the room where you are drinking the coffee? (Hint: If the coffee is left to cool a long time, it will reach room temperature. Round your answer to the nearest degree.) °F
A window of a car is found to be covered with 0.9 cm of ice. If the area of the window is 1 m2, and the ice is at -12 degrees Celsius, what is the minimum heat required to melt all the ice? Take the density of ice to be 900 kg/m3, the specific heat capacity of ice to be 0.5 cal/gK and the latent heat of fusion to be 80 cal/g.
