Evaporating sweat cools the body because evaporation is endothermic and absorbs 2.44 kJ per gram of water evaporated. Estimate the mass of water that must evaporate from the skin to cool a body by \(0.50\ ^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\), if the mass of the body is 95 kg and its heat capacity is \(4.0\mathrm{\ J

Problem 67P The four bonds of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) are polar, but the molecule is nonpolar because the bond polarity is canceled by the symmetric tetrahedral shape. When other atoms substitute for some of the Cl atoms, the symmetry is broken and the molecule becomes polar. Use Figure 9.20 (p.

A bead with mass 1.8 X 10-2 kg is moving along a wire in the positive direction of an x axis. Beginning at time t = 0, when the bead passes through x = 0 with speed 12 mis, a constant force acts on the bead. Figure 7-22 indicates the bead's position at these four times: to = 0, t1 = 1.0 s, t2 = 2.0 s
