| C | I | Question | Answer |
|---|---|---|---|
| 11 | 100 g of liquid nitrogen at its boiling point of 77 K is stirred into a beaker containing 500 g of 15°C water. If the nitrogen leaves the solution as soon as it turns to gas, how much water freezes? The heat of vaporization of nitrogen is 48 cal/g and that of water is 80 cal/g. | none | |
| 11 | 125 g of dry ice (solid CO2 ) is dropped into a beaker containing 500 g of 66°C water. The dry ice converts directly to gas, leaving the solution. When the dry ice is gone, the final temperature of the water is 29°C. What is the heat of vaporization of solid CO2 ? (cwater = 1.00 cal/g×°C) | 148 cal/g | |

| 10 | 88°F is how many degrees Celsius? | 31 | |
| 10 | 9.0 g of water in a 2.0-L pressure vessel is heated to 500°C. What is the pressure inside the container? (R = 0.082 L*atm/mol*K, one mole of water has a mass of 18 grams) | 16 atm | |
| 11 | A 0.003 0-kg lead bullet is traveling at a speed of 240 m/s when it embeds in a block of ice at 0°C. If all the heat generated goes into melting ice, what quantity of ice is melted? (Lf = 80 kcal/kg, the specific heat of lead = 0.03 kcal/kg×°C, and 1 kcal = 4 186 J) | 2.6*10^-4 kg | |
| 6 | A 0.10-kg object moving initially with a velocity of +0.20 m/s makes an elastic head-on collision with a 0.15-kg object initially at rest. What percentage of the original kinetic energy is retained by the 0.10-kg object? | 4% | |
| 6 | A 0.12-kg ball is moving at 6 m/s when it is hit by a bat, causing it to reverse direction and have a speed of 14 m/s. What is the change in the magnitude of the momentum of the ball? | 2.4 kg*m/s | |
| 7 | A 0.12-m-radius grinding wheel takes 5.5 s to speed up from 2.0 rad/s to 11.0 rad/s. What is the wheel's average angular acceleration? | 1.6 rad/s^2 | |
| 7 | A 0.15-m-radius grinding wheel starts at rest and develops an angular speed of 12.0 rad/s in 4.0 s. What is the average tangential acceleration of a point on the wheel's edge? | 0.45 m/s^2 | |
| 7 | A 0.150-m-radius grinding wheel, starting at rest, develops an angular speed of 12.0 rad/s in a time interval of 4.00 s. What is the centripetal acceleration of a point 0.100 m from the center when the wheel is moving at an angular speed of 12.0 rad/s? | 14.4 m/s^2 | |
| 11 | A 0.2-kg aluminum plate, initially at 20°C, slides down a 15-m-long surface, inclined at a 30° angle to the horizontal. The force of kinetic friction exactly balances the component of gravity down the plane so that the plate, once started, glides down at constant velocity. If 90% of the mechanical energy of the system is absorbed by the aluminum, what is its temperature increase at the bottom of the incline? (Specific heat for aluminum is 900 J/kg×°C.) | 0.07 C° | |
| 13 | A 0.20 kg object, attached to a spring with spring constant k = 10 N/m, is moving on a horizontal frictionless surface in simple harmonic motion of amplitude of 0.080 m. What is its speed at the instant when its displacement is 0.040 m? (Hint: Use conservation of energy.) | 49 cm/s | |
| 13 | A 0.20-kg block rests on a frictionless level surface and is attached to a horizontally aligned spring with a spring constant of 40 N/m. The block is initially displaced 4.0 cm from the equilibrium point and then released to set up a simple harmonic motion. A frictional force of 0.3 N exists between the block and surface. What is the speed of the block when it passes through the equilibrium point after being released from the 4.0-cm displacement point? | 0.45 m/s | |
