Problem 2 Example on how critical thinking works! Here is the setup [3 points] Two beakers of water that have the same initial temperature and the same depth of water and are set at the same time on identical hot plates adjusted to the same setting. The beaker in case 2 has a base that is twice the areas as the beaker in case 1. Which beaker of water reaches boiling int in less time, or do they reach boiling point at the same time? Justify your answer in poi coherent, paragraph-length response (Below I am even providing you with partial solution!): A student attempting to respond the above problem writes the following sentences. The sentences are all correct and make up a full credit response, but the sentences are mixed up and out of logical order. In the blanks next to each sentence, write numbers to put the sentences in appropriate order ("1" will the first sentence in the paragraph, "8" will be the last) -A. The beaker in case 2 has twice the area of the base but the same height, so twice the volume B. Time to boil is inversely proportional to the rate at which thermal energy is transferred to the water _C. If 2 has twice the volume, then 2 has twice the mass as Mass Density X Volume D. The beaker in case 2 has twice the area of contact as in Case 1. E. Both beakers of water reach the boiling point at the same temperature F. Thermal energy enter beaker 2 twice as fast since it has twice the area - G. Time to reach boiling point is directly proportional to the amount of mass of water H. Since mass increases time by double, and area of contact reduces the time by half, both effects cancel out.

Explanation / Answer

They reach the boiling point at the same time.

The justification in terms of the given sentences are as follows:

1 - D

2 - F

3 - B

4 - A

5 - C

6 - G

7 - H

8 - E
