120 Questions for Chapter 18: Temperature, Heat, and the First Law of Thermodynamics

  1. A pendulum clock with a pendulum made of brass is designed to keep accurate time at 230C. Assume it is a simple pendulum consisting of a bob at one end of a brass rod of negligible mass that is pivoted about the other end. If the clock operates at 0.00C, (a) does it run too fast or too slow, and (b) what is the magnitude of its error in seconds per hour?

  2. A solid cube of edge length r, a solid sphere of radius r, and a solid hemisphere of radius r, all made of the same material, are maintained at temperature 300 K in an environment at temperature 350 K. Rank the objects according to the net rate at which thermal radiation is exchanged with the environment, greatest first.

  4. A hot object is dropped into a thermally insulated container of water, and the object and water are then allowed to come to thermal equilibrium. The experiment is repeated twice, with different hot objects. All three objects have the same mass and initial temperature and the mass and initial temperature of the water are the same in the three experiments. For each of the experiments, Fig. 18-29 gives graphs of the temperatures Tof the object and the water versus time t. Rankthe graphs according to the specific heats of the objects, greatest first.

  10. A 0.400 kg sample is placed in a cooling apparatus that removes energy as heat at a constant rate. Figure 18-32 gives the temperature T of the sample versus time t; the horizontal scale is set by ts=80.0 min. The sample freezes during the energy removal. The specific heat of the sample in its initial liquid phase is 300 J/kgK . (a) What is the sample’s heat of fusion and (b) What is its specific heat in the frozen phase?
