Boiling water in an iron boiler : An iron boiler of mass 257 kg contains 861 kg of water at 18.9°C. A heater supplies energy at the rate of 46300kJ/hr. How long does it take for the water to reach the boiling point? Specific heat of iron = 450J/(kg·K).
How far does the platform move before coming to rest again : Two people are standing on a 3.19-m-long platform, one at each end. The platform floats parallel to the ground on a cushion of air and like a hovercraft. The two people, the platform and a 3.16-kg ball are all initially at rest.
What is the bearings impact velocity : Ball bearings can be made by letting spherical drops of molten metal fall in a tall tower - called a shot tower - and solidify as they fall. If a bearing needs 4.0s to solidify enough for impact, how high should the tower be?
What is the new resonant frequency : An LC circuit with L = 45 mH is used in a radio to decide the frequency of a selected radio station. The station's frequency is equal to the resonant frequency of the circuit.
