The pendulum in a grandfather clock is made of brass and keeps perfect time at 20 degrees C.
if they is kept at 27 degrees C? (Assume the frequency dependence on length for a simple pendulum applies.)
How much time is lost in a year?
If you drop a piece of ice on a hard surface, the energy of impact will melt some of the ice. The higher it drops, the more ice will melt upon impact.
Find the height from which the a block of ice should ideally be dropped to completely melt if that falls without air drag. [Hint: Equate the joules of gravitational potential energy to the product of the mass of ice and its heat of fusion (in si units, 335,000 J/kg. Do you see why the answer doesn't depend on mass?] Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
B: Does the answer depend on mass?
