When a solid sample was heated, its temperature increased but it did not melt. What has happened to the average molecular kinetic energies of the atoms in the sample and why? A Kinetic energy remained the same because potential energy decreased B Kinetic energy remained the same because potential energy increased C Kinetic energy decreased because the temperature increased D Kinetic energy increased because the temperature increased A spoon, a fork, and a knife are stacked on top of each other overnight. The temperature of both the fork and spoon is 21°C the next morning. According to thermal equilibrium, what can be predicted about the temperature of the knife? A The temperature of the knife is also 21°C because equilibrium has been reached between all three objects. B The temperature of the knife could only be determined through measurement. C The temperature of the spoon and fork are both conducted to the knife giving it a resulting temperature of 42°C. D The temperature of the…
A soap molecule within a soap-water solution is able to diffuse a distance of 0.01 m in approximately 60 minutes. The soap-water solution is used to make a very thin soap film (e.g. a soap bubble). How long would it take for a soap molecule to diffuse a distance of 0.01 m on the film? about 2 hours about 20 minutes O about 3 hours about 90 minutes about 40 minutes
You have a summer job with a company that designs cookware. Your group is assigned the task of designing a better pasta pot. You are very excited by a new strong, light alloy the group has just produced, but will it make a good pasta pot? If it takes more than 10 minutes to boil water in a pasta pot, it probably won't sell. So your boss asks you to calculate how long it would take water at room temperature (23°C) to reach boiling temperature (100°C) in a pot made of the new alloy. Your colleagues tell you that a typical pasta pot holds about 2 liters (2.0 kg) of water. They estimate that a pot made of the alloy would have a mass of 550 grams, and a specific heat of 860 J/(kg °C). You look in your physics book and find that water has a specific heat of 4186 J/(kg °C) and its heat of vaporization is 2.26 x 106 J/kg. The owner's manual states that the burners on your stove deliver 1500 Joules of heat per second. You estimate that about 15% of this heat is radiated away.
