    An ideal gas, and a block of copper, have equal volume of 0.5m^3

    ok i got ur point there... is that any possible that copper has it own pressure beside the atmospheric pressure?? i found the work done from copper..its 0.443J bt it is different from the standard answer it gave (0.434J)

    An ideal gas, and a block of copper, have equal volume of 0.5m^3

    so far what i know about ideal gas equation is PV = nRT so i have to find the volume change for the ideal gas use it on W = P dV and i manage to find work done for ideal gas :) however i still dun have any clue about work done on copper and for compressibility: K = (-1/v)(dV/dP) im still...

    An ideal gas, and a block of copper, have equal volume of 0.5m^3

    Homework Statement An ideal gas, and a block of copper, have equal volume of 0.5m^3 at 300K and atmospheric pressure. The pressure on both is increased reversibly and isothermally to 5atm. Find the work done of each if the compressibility of copper is 0.7X10^-6 atm-1 the atmospheric...

    How Much Kinetic Energy Do Electrons Need to Resolve a 10fm Nucleus?

    does tat mean something wrong with the ans given?? or i should use relativistic formula since the kinetic energy of electron is larger thn rest energy of electron?

    What Is the Minimal Wavelength for Electron-Positron Pair Production?

    Homework Statement what is the minimal wavelength of electromagnetic radiation to pair-produce an electron-positron pair? Homework Equations ~ = wavelength hc/~ = 2MeC^2 + K The Attempt at a Solution hc/~ = 2MeC^2 = 2(9.11x10^-31)(3x10^8)^2 ~ = 8.24x10^-11m is tis correct?

    Changes in AC Signal Frequency with Coupling Changes on Digital Oscilloscopes

    im using digital storage oscilloscope to measure the frequency of ac signal wat will happen to the frequency of ac signal if i change the coupling from ac to dc?? will there be any changes? how to explain the changes?

    How to Calculate the Compression Distance of a Spring on an Inclined Plane?

    1/2mv2+mglsin20=1/2kx2 1/2(2.5)(0.75)^2+2.5(9.8)(0.3sin20)=1/2(500)(x)^2 x=0.113m bt the real ans is o.131m i wonder which part i did wrong

    How to Calculate the Compression Distance of a Spring on an Inclined Plane?

    Homework Statement an inclined plane of angle 20 degree has a spring of force constant k= 500N/m fastened securely at the bottom so that the spring is parallel to the surface. a block of mass m=2.5kg is placed on the plane at a distance d=0.300m from the spring. From this position, the block...
