    Specific heat capacity question

    Would it be something around 36°C? I really can't find the change in temperature part in the equation...

    Specific heat capacity question

    What about this? Q=(4200+450)/((0.2x300)+20) Which makes it 58.125°C Is this correct?

    Specific heat capacity question

    @technician Oh, sorry 'bout that. @grzz Don't I like need to know the final temperature of water to calculate this? If not, which equation should I use?

    Specific heat capacity question

    Homework Statement When a car brakes, an amount of thermal energy equal to 112500J is generated in the brake drums. If the mass of the brake drums is 28 kg and their specific heat capacity is 460.5 Jkg^-1K^-1? A piece of iron of mass 200g and temperature 300°C is dropped into 1.00kg of water...

    Affect of Temperature on Squash Balls experiment

    Great! Now, how do I use this? The only things I could find on google were related to prostate cancer and motion tracking. Sorry for being such a noob :/ Huh, I thought that water would damage them... BTW, I guess I'll try that. Thanks again technician!

    Affect of Temperature on Squash Balls experiment

    Thanks for the quick response technician! Ok then, what can I use to heat up the balls, without damaging them? Still, the experiment is really innacurate due to the fact that I will have to use my eyes to do the experiment. And I already am using multiple balls, and possibly multiple trials...

    Affect of Temperature on Squash Balls experiment

    Hi there :) Homework Statement I am currently preparing an experiment for IB physics, and I need some help planning how I'm going to carry it out. We were given the topic "Balls and Rubber Bands", and we could choose freely upon the exact research question. I personally chose "How does the...
