A670.-g piece of copper tubing is heated to 95.3°c and placed in an insulated vessel containing 52.5 g of water at 36.5°c. assuming no loss of water and heat capacity of 10.0 j/k for the vessel, what is the final temperature (c of copper = 0.387 j/g · k)?

Final temperature will be T = 67.68°C

Explanation:

The heat evolved by the copper tubing will be absrobed by both water and the vessel used.

The heat evolved by the copper tubing will be:

Heat =

Mass = 670 g

Specific heat = 0.387 J/g · K

Change in temperature = Initial - Final

The heat absorbed by water will be

mass = 52.5

Specific heat = 4.184 J/g · K

the heat absorbed by vessel will be:

Heat capacity = 10J/K

Final temperature of all the three will be same (say T)

T = 67.68°C

the tides are influenced by both the moon and the sun, it's easy to see that when the sun lines up with the moon and the earth, as during a new moon or full moon, the tidal effect is increased. these are known as spring tides, named not for the season, but for the fact that the water "springs" higher than normal. on the other hand, if the sun and the moon are 90 degrees apart in relation to an observer on earth as during the first quarter moon or third quarter moon, then high tides are not as high as they normally would be. this is because despite its greater distance, the sun's mass allows it to exert enough gravitational force on the oceans that it can negate some of the effects of the moon's pull. this phenomenon of lower high tides is called a neap tide. if you need more information on this topic visit moonconnection.com.
