The cubit is an ancient unit of measurement for length, where 1 cubit is approximately 444.25 mm. A cubic cubit (cubit3) is a measurement of volume. You have a steel container completely filled with gasoline. How many cubic cubits will spill out of the 28.8 cubits3 containers when the temperature is raised from 21.5 °C to 48.7 °C?
A person taking a reading of the temperature in a freezer in Celsius makes two mistakes: first omitting the negative sign and then thinking the temperature is Fahrenheit. That is, the person reads – x °C as x °F . Oddly enough, the result is the correct Fahrenheit temperature. What is the original Celsius reading? Round your answer to three significant figures.
A patient has an illness that typically lasts about 24 hours. The temperature, T, in degrees Fahrenheit, of the patient t hours after the illness begins is given by: T(t) = -0.012t² +0.3t +98.7. Use your calculator to graph the function and answer the following questions. Round all answers to 1 decimal place. When does the patient's temperature reach it maximum value? Answer: After hours What is the patient's maximum temperature during the illness? Answer:
A sample of ideal gas is in a sealed container. The pressure of the gas is 325 torr , and the temperature is 14 °C. If the temperature changes to 81 °C with no change in volume or amount of gas, what is the new pressure, P, of the gas inside the container?
Luis and Salman are trying to increase the temperature of a substance by heating it. . What is the quantity of heat in kilojoules required to raise the temperature of 1.2 kg of the substance from3°C to 110 °C at a pressure of 1.0 atm? Please keep three significant figures. Useful information: Melting point = 293 K heat of fusion = 3.90 x 104 J/kg. boiling point is 423 K heat of vaporization 7.80 x 104 J/kg (at a pressure of 1.0 atm). The specific heats for the solid phase is 600 J/(kg K) The specific heats for the liquid phase is 1000 J/(kg K) The specific heats for the gaseous phase is 400 J/(kg K)
A ceramic container used for melting metals (called a crucible) contains 1.30 kg of a molten metal. The liquid metal cools until it reaches its melting point of 1,749°C. A scientist then measures that 2.99 ✕ 104 J of heat is transferred out of the metal before it completely solidifies. What is the latent heat of fusion of this metal, in J/g? (Be careful with units!)
