Mixing Definition and 283 Threads

Most textbooks include an example of entropy of mixing that involves removing a partition between two (in principle) distinguishable gases, and compare this to the case where the two gases are indistinguishable. What I’ve not yet been able to figure out is what the consequences of this...

Hello, When reading a bit about substractive color mixing, a question came up. I understood that when mixing Cyan, Magenta and Yellow paint, you would get black because all these 3 colors that get reflected by each corresponding paint are absorbed by the other paint in the mix, leaving no...

The title, basically. I am aware of the mixing rule for the two-component form: aP = a1z12 + 2z1z2sqrt(a1a2) + a2z22 Where do I find its extension on three or more cases? SVNA does not tell anything about this.

In an assignment I have, we are told to implement a Frequency Modulating function without using any of MATLAB's in-built functions, and not to use it's integration function either (use cumsum instead). I've been getting a lot of problems trying to solve these assignment problems without telling...

I am looking for a way that I can mix many colours of paint into the same container without it blending together and making other colours. I make liquid art and have seen others make images where i can see many colours in the liquid. The base of what I use at the moment is methycelluslose ...

If I was to throw together I variety of radioactive materials into a pot, what would be the interaction between the different materials? If I threw together Barium and Polonium, what would happen? What if I added Cesium, Europium, and Strontium to the mix? What about throwing in Uranium? Will...

Hi! I want to clarify what will happen if you mix two acids. One is stronger and One is less stronger. What will be the pH level result? for example if the acid is the juice from lemon which is at 2.0 be mix with orange ph level of 3.0, will it be greater than less than 2.0? or will it be 2.5...

the problem is the purple object will seem to be black if the object is illuminated by what color of light? i want to know if there is a theory that discuss about this, or the mixing of light color. Thank you for your help

Consider three identical boxes of volume V. the first two boxes will contain particles of two different species 'N' and 'n'. The first box contains 'N' identical non interacting particles in a volume V. The second box contains 'n' non interacting particles. The third box is the result of mixing...

I wish to fill a 60 cf tank with both CO2 and N at a 25% - 75% ratio. I have been told by my supplier that if I can tell them the "Recipe" for my size tank that they could make this happen for me. What I need to know is the amount of liquid CO2 (measured in pounds) that would be placed into...

I have a questions about AC and DC components being grounded to the same spot. I have a power supply box that takes in 120V AC and brings that into a transformer that converts it to 24V DC. On the way into the box the ground wire from the 120V AC is brought into a grounding terminal block and...

Hello Forum, Awhite background reflects all colors (i.e. all incident wavelengths). A black screen, being black, absorbs all incident types of light (i.e. absorbs all incident wavelengths). a)Let's consider a red monochromatic beam projected on a black screen inside a dark room. Would the...

There are several unreasonable assumptions in the formulation of the Prandlt Mixing Theory. However, it works reasonably well for simple 1-D flow. An attempt to explain why is given by Davidson in his book 'Turbulence', on page 122 - 124, section 4.1.4. It's stated that it still works because...

Apologize if you feel this question to be so simple and naive. Suppose a chamber is divided by a insulator into two equal volume (V) chambers, . One chamber contains n moles of hot oxygen at temperature T1, the other chamber contains n moles of cold oxygen at temperature T2. If you move the...

I've come across this floor heating mixing unit from Watts in an appartment. The image shows how things flow (I could only find this with some russian-looking annotations). To the left of the return connection there is a water meter - not an energy meter - it only shows the accumulated amount...

Hi, Say we have fluid A with thermal capacity C_a and fluid B with C_b. If we create a solution with X% of fluid A and (1-X)% of fluid B, is it true that the new thermal capacity of the mixture will be C_new ?= C_a*X + C_b * (1-X) Or it is a case-by-case relationship that depends on the nature...

I was wondering if it is possible for a bacteria to enter a body and somehow get some amount of that animal's DNA in itself if and when it leaves the body? Or if it just continues to live in the body. Basically does DNA ever linger around? I heard about "DNA dropping" in organisms, if that's the...

Hi! The following image is taken from my note in Stat Mech. Please excuse my ugly handwriting... I copied this from my professor's note on a whiteboard, and I'm not so sure if it is correct. The equations for Z1 (partition function before mixing) and Z2 (partition function after mixing) seems...

-ion process. The electron when hit by light moves to a higher shell level very briefly, to either shell 1, or 2 depending on the energy of the light wavelength. So because you mixed any EM radiation, with red light which has the lowest energy, could when light, or other EM waves gets absorbed...

I absolutely do not get it. I have read the boards in this section. What is the phenomena of mixing? I am just asking a simple question. I don't need to know about the CKM matrix (at least not yet) or D-zero mesons. What is a simple example (if there is one) of mixing? What do I start with...

When I pour two different liquids at different temperatures, into the same container, the temperature will be uneven at the start but then will approach equilibrium. Similarly, the concentrations of each liquid will be uneven but when mixing is complete, there will be the same concentrations...

This is my first post here, so hello to all. I came here looking for advice. I am far for considering myself even a newbie regarding physics, I have huge gaps in knowledge. However, as I happen to "know my way around computers", I am helping my friend in her art project. Sparing you the...

My question is: when oil and water from separate containers are poured into the same container and given time to equilibrate, is the entropy change positive, negative, or zero? I've been told that there is zero change in entropy because the water and oil do not mix at all. However, I suspect...

Homework Statement Two water samples are mixed. Sample 1 has δ18O-H2O = -1(per mil), Sample 2 has δ18O-H2O = -20 (per mil), and the mixture has δ18O-H2O = -15 (per mil). What fraction of water came from sample 1 and what fraction came from sample 2? Assume that F = the fraction of the water...

I find that the quark mixing factor say for example ##V_{ub}## is the same for: u ##\Leftrightarrow## b ##u\Leftrightarrow\bar{b}## ##\bar{u}\Leftrightarrow## b ##\bar{u}\Leftrightarrow\bar{b}## Does this have something to do with weak interaction being unable to distinguish these from one...

Hi, So I recently got a new job, and when I was being instructed on how to close my department, I noticed that they used quite a bit of chemicals on the same surface (it's a salad bar). I was wondering if any of these chemicals could interact, and if so, what the products would be. First, the...

<<Mentor note: Moved from other thread.>> I have 4 questions: 1. Why Weinberg angle affects neutral boson mixing, while W+ and W- are unaffected? 2. Is there any relation between Weinberg angle and CP violation angle? Are they absolutely independent? 3. How our world would be different if...
