- A student drops two metallic objects into a 120-g steel container holding 150 g of water at 25°C. One object is a 194-g cube of copper that is initially at 83°C, and the other is a chunk of aluminum that is initially at 5.0°C. To the surprise of the student, the water reaches a final temperature of 25°C, precisely where it started.

- A 5.60-g lead bullet traveling at 580 m/s is stopped by a large tree.

What is the maximum temperature increase that the water could have as a result of this event?arrow_forwardA balloon filled with 3.50 kg of water at a temperature of 22°C is dropped from rest from an airplane. The airplane is 8000 m above the ground. There is air resistance acting on the balloon, and just before hitting the ground, the balloon is traveling at a speed of 200 m/s. For this problem, you can ignore the balloon material (its mass, specific heat etc…) and just treat the balloon as 3.50 kg of pure water. Also, assume g is a constant 9.8 m/s^2 during the entire fall and that the system of the water + surrounding air is a closed system. Assume that all internal energy change occurs in the water. a) Find the temperature of the water in the balloon just before hitting the ground. ( cm, water = 4186 J/kgK)arrow_forward
