A 1 kg block of copper at 20 °C is dropped into a large vessel of liquid nitrogen at 77 K. How many kilograms of nitrogen boil away by the time the copper reaches 77 K? [ C cu = 387JKg-1°C-1, heat of vaporization of nitrogen is 2 ×105 J/Kg ]
A 3g copper coin at 20°C is dropped from a height of 300m and strikes the ground. If 60℅ of the energy goes into increasing the internal energy of the coin, determine its final temperature. [Ccu = 387Jkg-1°C-1 ]
please help with this problem: 1- How much heat must be added to 2.55 kg of copper to change it from a solid at 1358 K to a liquid at 1358 K? The latent heat of fusion for copper is 20.7 × 10^4 J/kg and the latent heat of vaporization of cooper is 47.3 × 10^5 j/kg.
