Homework Statement


Describe what is meant by the term "Isobaric expansion".


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


I've been all through my textbook and the web trying to find a "proper" definition.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
isobaric means constant pressure, and well expansion means to increase in size/volume

To keep pressure constant volume has to increase which means energy has to increase so temperature has to increase.

Q = CpΔT

Thread 'Help with Time-Independent Perturbation Theory "Good" States Proof'

(Disclaimer: this is not a HW question. I am self-studying, and this felt like the type of question I've seen in this forum. If there is somewhere better for me to share this doubt, please let me know and I'll transfer it right away.) I am currently reviewing Chapter 7 of Introduction to QM by Griffiths. I have been stuck for an hour or so trying to understand the last paragraph of this proof (pls check the attached file). It claims that we can express Ψ_{γ}(0) as a linear combination of...
