Two beakers contain water at room temperature. One contains 200ml, the other 400ml. If both beakers are heated above identical Bunsen burners, which of the two will take longer to boil?

The equation dQ = m c dT tells us how the temperature of an object changes when heat energy dQ is added. In this case the specific heat capacity c is the same for the contents of both beakers since we are he...

A 4 metre long bar rotates freely around a central pivot. 3 forces act upon it: 7N down, 2m to the left of the pivot; 8N up, 1m to the left of the pivot; 4N up, 1m to the right of the pivot. Apply one additional force to place the bar in equilibrium.

Begin by calculating the current force and moment of the bar.Force: 8+4-7=5 (or vice versa)Moment: 7 2= 14 Nm anticlockwise 8 1= 8 Nm clockwise 4*1= 4 Nm anticlockwiseSum calculated moments: 14+4-8=10 (or vi...
