    How Does Non-Monatomic Gas Behavior Differ During Expansion?

    Homework Statement A NON-monatomic gas expands from I to F in the Figure (Since it is not monatomic U=3/2nRT does not give you the internal energy, this only works for monatomic gases, instead you must use the first law). The energy added to the gas by heat is 424 J when the gas goes from I to...

    Potential difference in circuit with battery, resistors, switch, capacitor

    Homework Statement Consider the circuit shown in the Figure, where R1 = 29 and R2 = 4.8 . http://www.webassign.net/walker/21-44alt.gif (a) Is the current flowing through the battery immediately after the switch is closed greater than, less than, or the same as the current flowing...

    Work to move charge to infinity?

    haha thanks for the delta :) i actually got the problem, i just was having trouble finding the potentials but I've got it now. Thank you for taking the time to respond, and have a great day!

    Work to move charge to infinity problem

    Ah, that's what i was looking for! got it with the v2+v1=v3 so work was .3925 J. Thanks for all the help on both questions!

    Work to move charge to infinity problem

    Why work done between the charge and each of the other two?

    Work to move charge to infinity problem

    Right that's what I had above: W=(V3)(Q3). But I don't understand how to get V3.

    Work to move charge to infinity problem

    right my only problem is i don't having a starting place. unless i assume it's the corner with no charge?
