Internal Definition and 957 Threads

It'd be best if I start with example. Screwdriver helps us by having a handle with a large radius that provides a mechanical advantage in turning a blade with a smaller radius. So whatever force exerted on screwdriver's handle by hand, same force is exerted on screw. But torque on a handle is...

Hey guys ,can u just let me know about the most advanced or developed IC engine.Plz help.

alright, so I'm reviewing for a test I have on monday, and I was given a study guide which we must answer in order to get ready for the test. Now I just breeze through this stuff like its nothing, but I've found on discrepency. I even looked up the question online and i got 2 completely...

930.J of work are done by an insulated system that absorbs 3.35Kcal of heat. What is the change in the internal energy of the system? Ok so I don't quite understand this. I know that U=Q-W. but I do I just do 3.35Kcal minus W? This just doesn't seem right.

A cylinder contains 0.0100 mol of helium at T = 27.0 ^\circ \text{C}. If the presure of the helium is kept constant, how much heat is needed to raise the temperature from 27.0 to 67.0 C? If the gas is ideal, what is the change in its internal energy? I got the answer for the first part...

Question: When a quantity of monatomic ideal gas expands at a constant pressure of 4.00 \times 10^{4} {\rm Pa}, the volume of the gas increases from 2.00 \times 10^{ - 3} {\rm m}^{3} to 8.00 \times 10^{ - 3} {\rm m}^{3}. A. What is the change in the internal energy of the gas? It's isobaric...

I know its because the electrons stop the current but that's about all i Know! Any ideas also does internal resistance vary from rechargable and non rechargable batteries? thanks :D

Hi, I am in yr 11 and i study physics I am my free time but have stumnbled across the following question that i can't seem to find an answer for in any books, would someone please be able to help me? A cell is connected in series with a variable resistor. A high resistance voltmeter is...

I figured there must be a relationship between internal energy and enthalpy after doing this physics question sheet which seemed to suggest this because there was a graph (pressure-volume) showing 2 routes to same finial condition...which reminded me of la chatelier's principle (think that's the...

A tank of volume 0.413 m3 contains 2.79 mol of helium gas at 5C. Assume that the helium behaves like as an ideal gas. The universal gas constant is 8.31451 J/Kmol, and Boltzmann's constant is 1.38066 x10^-23 J/K. Find the total thermal energy of the system. Answer in units of J. Would...

problem says knowing radius of each pulley to be 7.2 in, neglect friction, find internal forces at point J of the frame. 1st question that I have is whether the tension in section C-E of the cable also 90 lb? how about section C-D. Also, in my diagram of each of the members, I don't know how to...

A cylinder (cross section is 0.2m2) with a free moving piston is filled with gas. The piston is attached to a heavy weight W = 10000N. Outside the cylinder, the air is at 300K and 1atm. Initially the gas is at 300K, then it is heated to 400K. The heat capacity of the gas under the constant...

Hello everyone, I keep missing his problem! and i only have 2 more trys... When the lights of a car are switched on, an ammeter in series with them reads 14.0 A and a voltmeter connected across them reads 12.0 V (Figure 27-48). When the electric starting motor is turned on, the ammeter reading...

One of my problems reads, 1. Determine the maximum angle for which the light rays incident on the end of the pipe in Figure P35.38 are subject to total internal reflection along the walls of the pipe. Assume that the pipe has an index of refraction of 1.40 and the outside medium is air...

In an SI engine, according to the book Internal Combustion Engine Fundamentals, knocking is produced due to the interaction of the shock wave and the expansion wave which together produce very high amplitude standing waves. My question is, in knocking is there only one shock wave or multiple...

I was thinking , if we take into account oly the internal motion of atoms , all collisions will turn out to be elastic. Wont they be?

heres another conceptual one . there is a standard yet very elegant problem about a rocket bllowing up mid air and finding the final postions of the parts of the projectile using the principle of centre of mass remaining the same since the forces a re internal when the rocket blows up . now...

i have attached a doc file. it shows two coaxial circular bars of different material and a force(30kn) is applied in the top. I think the internal forces in both the bars will be 30kn. Am i correct. bar1 is made of steel and bar 2 of aluminium. the total length of the structure is 10metres.

i have a circular tube of diameter 20mm,thickness 1mm and length 500 metres i bend the tube into a radius of 50mm. obviously the tube has entered the plastic stage. But what would have happened to the material properties. hOW CAN I CALCULATE THE CHANGE IN MATERIAL PROPERTIES. THE...

Hello. I use a kind of motion sensor located in a sealed metal enclosure. I perform temperature offset calibrating to this device, using an external temperature sensor (attached to the enclosure). This solves the most of temperature problems except when the temperature gradient is large -...

What causes internal resistance in the following: A) A Cell, B) A Solar Cell? Is it not just the same thing? Thanks in advance. :smile:

My chem book says that Enthalpy = internal energy+pressure*volume However it says that enthalpy for a particular state cannot be calculated. Only the enthalpy change can be calculated. This has me confused. Aren't internal energy, pressure and volume calculabe for a particular state...

I'm doing an experiment to measure the internal resistance of a zinc carbon cell (battery) and have slightly confused myself! Do I use the ε= IR + Ir formula? And if so how in the world do I use it! I know that I can work out R by using V and I values but how do I find the EMF of the battery...

A corner reflector is to be made from a triangular prism with index of refraction n=2.56, as shown in the diagram on your assignment. What is the maximum angle (in °), with respect to the normal to the front surface of the prism, (theta), such that total reflection will occur? Ok this must be...

The answer to the attachment is if the R resistance was equal to the internal resistance. How was this determined? Please explain this to me because i have no idea how they can solve this. Thanks

I do not know what to solve for...? One recargable battery of mass 15g delivers to a cd player an average current of 1.80mA at 1.60 V for 2.4hours before the battery needs to be recharged. The recharger maintains a potential difference of 2.30v across the battery and delivers a charging...

Hi, I'm new here... I already read about how the signals are transmited through the fibre optical cables... total internal reflection But what I don't understand is the another day I was scribbling it on a piece of paper (the total internal reflection that is)... I noticed that from the way...

The Question: A 45-45-90 prism is immersed in water. What is the minimum index or fefraction the prism must have if it is to reflect totaly a ray incident normally on one of its faces. Now, we have found this question a bit hard to understand. We assume that light is hitting one of the...

I was just curious as to what mechanism in our body tells time. How is it that we can count 1,2,3,4,5,6,ect to a moderate accuracy? I would guess it gaugues something harmonic, but what do I know. Any help would be Grrrreat!

I know that by definition a conservative force is a force that is independent of the path. An internal force is a force within a system. Now, the mechanical energy is conserved only when conservative forces are acting on a particular system. On the other hand some people say that it is...
