The specific heat of copper is 0.093 cal/(g.°C) and the specific heat of gold is 0.031 cal/(g.°C). If 9.5 cal is supplied to one gram of copper and one gram of gold, the RATIO of temperature increase of gold to that of copper is:
The data listed below is from a passenger hot air balloon. The balloon is designed to lift 10-people (80 kg each person). The balloon consists of a basket, a burner- propane tank system. It will lift up when the cold air trapped inside warms up by the burner. Density of air inside the balloon is 99°C: 0.9486 kg/m³, density of air outside balloon is 20°C (ambient): 1.2041 kg/m³ Mass (kg) Balloon Basket Burner Propane tank   113.4 kg 63.5 kg 22.7 kg 183.7 kg      Assume the balloon is a sphere shape, volume =(4/3)pi R3. a. Determine the minimum diameter of the balloon that would have a total lifting force to balance the weight of balloon, basket, burner, propane tank and 10 people? b. If the balloon is converted to survey the weather, it will be filled with hydrogen gas (H2). Assume the weight of the people (800kg) is now replaced by onboard equipment,  what is minimum diameter needed to keep it afloat at 18km above the surface of the earth?
A graduate student wants to use van der Waals' equation to express the pressure-volume- temperature relations for a gas. Her project requires a reasonable degree of precision in the p-V-T calculations. Therefore, she made the following experimental measurements with her setup to get an idea of how easy the experiment would be: Temperature, K Pressure, atm Volume, ft'/lb mol 273.1 273.1 200 1.860 1000 0.741 Determine values of constants a and b to be used in van der Waals' equation that best fit the experimental data.
