Get started for freeA 15-g lead bullet is tested by firing it into a fixed block of wood with a mass of 35 kg. The block and imbedded bullet together absorb all the heat generated. After thermal equilibrium has been reached, the system has a temperature rise measured as 0.020 C°. Estimate the bullet's entering speed.
(II)A 2.3-kg lead ball is placed in a 2.5-L insulated pail of water initially at 20.0°C. If the final temperature of the water–lead combination is 32.0°C, what was the initial temperature of the lead ball?
Explain why burns caused by steam at 100°C on the skin are often more severe than burns caused by water at 100°C.
Sea breezes are often encountered on sunny days at the shore of a large body of water. Explain, noting that the temperature of the land rises more rapidly than that of the nearby water.
In a cold environment, a person can lose heat by conduction and radiation at a rate of about 200 W. Estimate how long it would take for the body temperature to drop from 36.6°C to 35.6°C if metabolism were nearly to stop. Assume a mass of 65 kg. (See Table 14–1.)
