A 40.0-g block of ice at -15.0°C is dropped into a calorimeter (of negligible heat capacity) containing water at 15.0°C. When equilibrium is reached, the final temperature is 8.0°C. How much water did the calorimeter contain initially? The specific heat of ice is 2090 J/(kg K) and the latent heat of fusion of water is 33.5 × 104 J/kg.
Reward-to-Variability Ratio
A measure of the return on an investment relative to its risk, higher values indicate better risk-adjusted returns.
Standard Deviation
A statistical measure that quantifies the variability or dispersion of a set of data points or the volatility of an investment's returns.
