A baseball with mass 0.14 kilograms and speed 40 m/s is caught. If all of its kinetic energy is converted to internal energy as it is caught, what is its temperature change? (Assume the baseball's specific heat capacity is 1,000 joules per kilogram degree Celsius.)

Question 2

A 4 kilogram block of ice is removed from a freezer where its temperature was maintained at 20 degrees Celsius. How much heat does the ice absorb as it is warmed to 10 degrees? (The specific heat capacity of ice is 2,000 joules per kilogram degree Celsius.)

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
