Lab Activity ‘Complete the following lab from Conceptual Physics Laboratory Manual. * Lab 44, “Geometric Physics” Submit your answers to question 1 in part A and to analysis questions 2-19 in parts A-D. Note: For part B, 100 mL is approximately equal to % cup. If you don’t have a scale, use 1 tablespoon of each type of salt. For part D, 40°C is roughly 104°F, and 50 mL is about ¥% cup. If you don’t have a hot plate, you may use a stove to heat the water to the correct temperature. Purpose To investigate ratios of surface arca to volume.

Which beaker has the smaller ratio of surface area to volume? 18. The cooling of'a beaker of warm water takes place at the surface. The otal amount of heat that must leave the water forit to cool to room temperature depends on the volume. Therefore, on what ratio does the rate of cooling (the temperature drop with time) depend? 19. Suppose that a small wading pool is next to a swimming pool. Predict which pool will heat up faster during the day. Why? Laboratory Manual (Activity 44) 2
