Ch 13_3 #1

Look at the graph and understnad what different segments of the line correspond to. Remember to convert into SI units.

Ch 13_2 #4

First find how much heat you need to heat ice to melting temperature, then calculate how much heat needed to warm up water. Where does this heat come from?

Ch 13_2 #3

Problem similar to the problem Ch 13_2 #2

Ch 13_2 #2

Use conservation of energy/heat law. Wrtie down equation for heat lost for copper and the equation for heat gained by water. Solve for T_f.

Ch 13_2 #1

Use expression for thermal expansion

Ch 13_1 #1

Use the conversion of Cal to find J. Do not confuse calorie with food calorie

Ch 12_3 #4

For part a) use equation for ideal gas. Psi is not SI units so you have to convert it into correct units.
For part b) use relationship for energy and temperature and not that you asked to calculate the energy per one atom. Does the number you obtain is very small or big? Does it make sense?

Ch 12_3 #3

Use the same formula as before, but remember that nitrogen is diatomic gas and thus you have to use correct molar mass.

Ch 12_3 #2

Recall formula for the rms speed of the atoms or relationship between absolute temperature and rms speed.

Ch 12_3 #1

This an ideal gas process with constant volume. Note that the pressure in tire is gauge pressure rather than absolute pressure.

Ch 11_3 #3

In this problem you have to consider water as viscous fluid. You need to maintain pressure in point P for the water to continue to flow at the other end.

Can someone help out? I have no idea how to do this problem

I cant figure this one out....Help please

By posting answers your setting up your fellow student for failure on the exam. It sounds trivial but it is true. The equation one has to use is one for flow of viscous fluid.

Ch 11_3 #4

Part A should be straightforward (there was quiz on that in class).
Part B you have to use continuity equation and Bernoulli's principle to find the pressure in the lower pipe. Then calculate the pressure in the water column.

What is the continuity equation professor?

the continuity equation is A1v1=A2v2
I'm not sure which equations to use for part A?

How the hell do you figure out anything for this question? You aren't given any pressures for any part of the pipe, just areas and velocities. How can you figure out the height or even the exiting force of the water?

Part A: pressure of anything exited in air is just atmospheric pressure (Patm)=1.013 kPa.

Alright so I used Bernoulli's for part A, got an answer of 145.2 kPa, says incorrect, however when I plug that into part B, and got an answer, THAT was correct?

P(atm)=1.013*10^5 Pa

Thank you to all who post answers! These questions are complicated and without help from the professor, or help in the form of really General hints, they suck.

i still cant figure out part A..can anyone help with that?

November 15, 2010 9:16 PM

I do not think we can allow straightforward answers - hints and guidance that explain physical meaning on the other hand are welcome. It is easy to put this answer now however it will not help during the exam.
