    Equations of state -- Partial derivatives & Expansivity

    Homework Statement Show that the coefficient of volume expansion can be expressed as β= -1÷ρ (∂ρ÷∂T) keeping P (pressure) constant Where rho is the density T is Temperature Homework Equations 1/v =ρ β= 1/v (∂v÷∂T) keeping P (pressure ) constant The Attempt at a Solution I started with...

    Undergrad Eddy currents and Torsion Pedulum

    I am having difficulties writing my damped oscillations lab report. We were asked to write a short essay on eddy currents (creation,direction advantage and disadvantage) and their relationship with torsion pendulums. Also,we have to explain if the copper wheel in the torsion pendulum could be...
