How do you solve this problem…

A 0.225 kg sample of tin initially at 97.5 oC is dropped into 0.115 kg of water. The intial temperature of the water is 10 oC. If the specific heat of tin is 230 J/kg*oC, what is the final equilibrium temperature of the tin-water mixture?

An astronomical unit ( AU ) is defined as the average distance between the Earth and
Sun. ( One light year = 9.46 x 10 m , 1.5 x 10 = 1 AU )
a) How many astronomical units are there in one lightyear?
b) Determine the distance from Earth to the Andromeda galaxy in astronomical units. ( Distance from Earth to the Andromeda galaxy is 2 x 10 m )
2-4. The square of the speed of an object undergoing a uniform acceleration, a is some
function of a and the displacement , s according to the expression v = k a s ,
where k is a dimensionless constant. Show by dimensional analysis that this
expression is satisfied only if m = n =

The solutions will be for very common physics problems in introductory classes. Not much more involved than the few already posted.

I’m not offering a problem solving depot, where I’ll solve any problem submitted. But sometimes, students need to see some solved problems to get a feel for how to do it.

The generator will also be used as part of the problem solving email course I’m working on. A guide to the art of problem solving requires showing students some solutions.

Are you sure this is a good idea? I would hate to see ILovePhysics.com become a free-for-all problem solver where students come by to drop off their problems and get a plugged in answer. I’m all for tutoring and helping students with questions, but I have to wonder if an automated problem-solver goes too far.
