    Entropy Change of an expanding gas

    Two moles of an ideal gas undergo a reversible isothermal expansion from 1.97×10−2 m^3 to 4.82×10−2 m^3 at a temperature of 20.0 C. What is the change in entropy of the gas? WORKING: Using \DeltaS = nRIn(V2/V1) = 2(8.31*ln(4.82*10^-2/1.97*10^-2) ANS = -138.20 J/K Is this...

    Finding polar form of 1/Z

    I understand that that is how the question is written and the sign indicates the point position in the plane. Sorry I worded the question wrong. Basically, z = \sqrt{}3 + i Polar form of this is: 2( cis \pi/6 ) then working out 1/z the answer is 1/2 (cis -\pi/6) I do not know why...

    Finding polar form of 1/Z

    Hi There. I was given this question and the answer: Find the polar forms of 1/z where z = \sqrt{}3 + i and 1/z where z = 4\sqrt{}3 -4i Answers respectively are: 1/2 cis(-\pi/6) 1/8 cis(\pi/6) Can someone please explain to me why it is that the sign of the argument...

    Polar form of complex numbers

    Hi There, Can someone please tell me where I can find a table/ data that converts radians to surds. I don't know what to call it but, for instance to tan^-1(-1) = -Pi/4 and, cos(-pi/6) = root3/2 ? Thank you :)
