Assume the run was completed perfectly along the center line of the circles. What was their average speed during this record run? Give answer to two decimal places in mph.

2 / 10

A refrigeration unit cools water of mass 3 kg by 33 °C. Find the thermal energy removed from the water. The specific heat capacity of water is 4186 J/kg celsius. Give answer to three significant figures in kJ.

The magnitude of the manifold reaction force FK is to be determined. In Newton, integer, no unit in the answer

4 / 10

A metal piece heated to θ_1,M=1000∘C with a mass of M_M=6.5 kg was cooled in a completely heat-insulated iron container filled with water. The mass of the water in the container is M_W=10 kg and the mass of the container is M_B=2 kg. The initial temperatures of the water and the container were the same and amounted to θ_1,W=10∘C. After complete thermal equilibrium between the immersed metal piece, the water, and the container, a temperature of θ2=80∘C was established.
What is the average specific heat capacity of the metal piece cc in the temperature range between 80∘C and 1000∘C?
