Directions: Answer 6 out of the first 8 problems AND problems 9 and 10. Each problem is worth an equal amount of points. Write your solutions in the blue book. Be sure to show all your work and keep careful track of units! Good luck! 1. A soccer player, Madeline, is standing on the roof of building A, 50.0 m above the ground. Her friend Emily is standing on the roof of another building, building B, which is located 15.0 m away. The roof of building B is 2.0 m lower than the roof of building A. Madeleine wants to kick a ball to Emily. Madeleine kicks the ball with an initial velocity v 0 at an angle of 45.0 degrees above the horizontal. V 0 50 m 48 m 15 m a.

The water and aluminum are initially at 20 0 C, and the system then comes to equilibrium. a. What is the equilibrium temperature? b. At equilibrium temperature, how many molecules of liquid water are present? 10. Consider the following two-step process. Heat is allowed to flow out of one mole of ideal gas at constant volume so that its pressure drops from 4.05 x 10 5 N/m 2 (point a) to 1.52 x 10 5 N/m 2 (point b). Then the gas expands at constant pressure, from a volume 6.0 x 10-3 m 3 to 9.5 x 10-3 m 3. a. Calculate the temperature at points a, b, and c. b. Calculate the total change in internal energy as the gas goes from state a to c. c. Calculate the total work done by the gas from a to c. d.
