How much heat must be absorbed by ice of mass 378 gram to melt completely? Provide the answer in kJ with accuracy upto two decimal points. Consider the following: Specific Heat of ice as 2220 J/kg.K Heat of Fusion LF = 333 kJ/kg Heat of Vaporization Ly = 2256 kJ/kg
Police arrive at the murder scene at 1 am. Immediately, they take and record the body'stemperature, which is 80oF, and inspect the area for clues and evidence. By the time they finishthe inspection, it is 1:30 am. They again take the temperature of the body, which has dropped to70oF, and have it sent to the morgue. The temperature at the crime scene has remained steadyat 75oF. When was the person murdered?
A new temperature scale was invented: “x” scale and its unit [°x]. this newscale is defined in such a way that the melting and boiling points of water at theof the sea are its fixed points with values of 550 [°x] and 110 [°x], respectively. Awhat temperature interval on the “x” scale corresponds to an interval oftemperature of 10 [°C]?
