Hi,
I had a question in my exam at my college that I did not quite know how to answer.
Why is the study of magnetism more important than of electricity in technology ? (I can't remember exactly the question)
Again, it's a translation, i don't know if it's 100% accurate in english
Homework Statement
An ideal gas suffers a transformation under the law p=p_0-aV, p_0=10^5 Pa, a=\frac{10^6}{8,3} \frac{Pa}{m^3}. The maximum temperature on this transformation is: ...
A) 2450 K
B) 2500 K
C) can't be...
I don't want to be rude, but can you solve it without using those "d's" (differentiation) because i wasn't taught at school thermodynamics with derivatives (or integrals) and i don't understand what you did over there :-s
ye but i don't know which Q should i "use" for a p/V transformation... if it was isobar it would be c=\frac{\nu C_p \Delta T}{\nu \Delta T}=C_p=\frac{5}{2} R if it was isochoric it would be 3/2 R
First of all, i want to begin with saying that this is my translation of the problem in english (the original is in romanian) so i don't know if some words are correctly used...

A monoatomic ideal gas expands under the law p=a*V with a = constant. Find the molar heat in...
Hey,
I want to know how much does the volume of a body of water gets smaller per unit of pressure increase, assuming volume is in m^3 and pressure in Pa (or N/m^2).
And another thing, can the force which the liquid (water) exerts outward opposing compression be calculated?
I hope you...
...in let's say 60 years from now (that makes me 78 yrs old), would you buy a "treatment" that dampens the aging process of your cells? The reason i ask this question is because i'd by one just to live longer till i can see with my own eyes the discovery of intelligent beings on another planet...
A bit of unrelated question: Will the average temperature of Earth decrease while our sun is at solar minimum? (would be glad to hear "yes", because i hate the heat in the summer).
