Reciprocity theorem and ideal gas law

AI Thread Summary
The reciprocity theorem is a principle in physics that relates to the behavior of systems under certain conditions. The ideal gas law, expressed as PV=nRT, is derived from Charles' law, Boyle's law, and Avogadro's law, and does not adhere to the reciprocity theorem. The discussion emphasizes that the ideal gas law is independent of the reciprocity theorem. Therefore, the two concepts are not directly related. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for grasping the principles of thermodynamics and gas behavior.

what is the reciprocity theorem? and does ideal gas law PV=nRT follows the theorem?

This question is way too wide.

Here is Reciprocity theorem: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocity_theorem

And no, ideal gas law PV=nRT is derived by combing Charles' law , Boyle's law and Avogadro's law and has nothing to do with reciprocity !

Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'

I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...

Thread 'Why is the 3 body problem unsolvable? And what will happen if someone solves it?'

I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...
