4. A 6.5 g meteor hits Earth at a speed of 300 m/s. If the meteors kinetic energy is
entirely converted to heat, by how much does its temp rise? (Use specific heat of
the meteor = 120 cal/kgCo and conversion of 1 cal = 4,186 J)
a) 134 oC b) 68 oC c) 120 oC d) 90 oC
5. When 0.75 kg water at 0 oC freezes, what is the change in entropy of the water?
(Use latent heat of fusion of water Lf = 33,400 J/kg)
7. A flask of liquid nitrogen is at a temp of -243 oC. If the nitrogen is heated until the
avg energy of the particles is doubles, what is the new temp?
9. The process whereby heat flows by the bulk movement of matter is known as
1. answer: D
3. answer: A
4. answer: D
5. answer: A
Entropy S = Q/T
Note: Q is removed from the water, so entropy of the water decreases (wherever
the heat is going will have an increase in entropy)
6. answer: B
7. answer: C
T = -243 oC = 30 K
2T = 60 K = -213 oC
8. answer: C
9. answer: D
10. answer: C
Q = W + U
If adiabatic, Q = 0, therefore 0 = W + U
If the gas expands it is doing work, at the expense of lowering its internal energy.
Work done is positive, so change in internal energy U must be negative.
