Agreat natural and humanitarian disaster occurred when the volcano mt pelee erupted on the island of martinique in 1902. an effect of the eruption was a phenomenon called a "nuee ardente" in which a large cloud of hot gas is emitted and rolls down the mountainside, in this case enveloping the town of saint pierre and killing 30,000 people. since the ambient temperature was around 20 c, it's clear that the high-temperature cloud must have been composed of a high-molecular mass gas in order for it to sink rather than rise. suppose the temperature in the cloud was 600 c. estimate the minimum value, in atomic mass units (amu), of the average molecular mass of the gas in the cloud. (assume the ambient air is primarily nitrogen, 28 amu.) amu

An ice-making machine inside a refrigerator operates in a carnot cycle. it takes heat from liquid water at 0.0 degrees celsius and rejects heat to a room at a temperature of 19.2 degrees celsius. suppose that liquid water with a mass of 76.3kg at 0.0 degrees celsius is converted to ice at the same temperature. take the heat of fusion for water to be l_f = 3.34*10^5 j/kg. how much energy e must be supplied to the device? express your answer in joules.
