If you drop 50g of metal that is initially at 120ºc into 100g of water in a styrofoam cup that is initially at 20ºc and the temperature of the water rises to 30ºc, what is the specific heat of the metal, if you ignore any heat transferred to the cup?

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 790 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of 28 degrees with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is k = 0.14. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of a = 0.18 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. b) if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance, l, in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.

9.98 kg of r-134a at 300 kpa fills a rigid container whose volume is 14 l. determine the temperature and total enthalpy in the container. the container is now heated until the pressure is 600 kpa. determine the temperature and total enthalpy when the heating is completed. use data from the steam tables.

The energy equivalent of the rest mass of an electron is
