Problem 24P A 30-g ice cube at its melting point is dropped into an insulated container of liquid nitrogen. How much nitrogen evaporates if it is at its boiling point of 77 K and has a latent heat of vaporization of 200kJ/kg? Assume for simplicity that the specific heat of ice is a constant and is equal to its value near its melting point.

Question
The 1.20-kg head of a hammer has a speed of 6.5 m/s just before it strikes a nail (Fig. 14–17) and is brought to rest. Estimate the temperature rise of a 14-g iron nail generated by 10 such hammer blows done in quick succession. Assume the nail absorbs all the energy.
Solution
The first step in solving 14 problem number trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The 1.20-kg head of a hammer has a speed of 6.5 m/s just before it strikes a nail (Fig. 14–17) and is brought to rest. Estimate the temperature rise of a 14-g iron nail generated by 10 such hammer blows done in quick succession. Assume the nail absorbs all the energy.
From the textbook chapter Electromagnetic Induction and Faraday's Law you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
