An insulated thermos contains 148 g of water at 72.7 ˚c. you put in a 11.7 g ice cube at 0.00 ˚c to form a system of ice + original water. the specific heat of liquid water is 4190 j/kg•k; and the heat of fusion of water is 333 kj/kg. what is the net entropy change of the system from then until the system reaches the final (equilibrium) temperature?

Determine the time it takes for a satellite to orbit the earth in a circular "near-earth" orbit. the definition of "near-earth" orbit is one which is at a height above the surface of the earth which is small compared to the radius of the earth, so that you may take the acceleration due to gravity as essentially the same as that on the surface. does your result depend on the mass of the satellite?
