What is the likelihood of success when there is an absolute zero chance of failure?
The likelihood of success when there is an absolute zero chance of failure is 100.
How did Kelvin calculate absolute zero?
This is just the rough answer, as I am looking for more details myself... but Kelvin was trying to discover at what temperature the ideal gases turned to liquid (He, H, etc), and he then used those numbers to plot a line that supposedly gave him the temperature that would mean there was no 'energy' left in a substance, and thus be as cold as it cold possibly be. There are flaws to his theory, but it is called Kelvin because of him. Keep in mind that it is likely that there are temperatures colder than 'absolute zero'... currently they are called 'negative temperatures'. Some people postulate that below a certain temperature that the matter would actually contain *more* energy than at a relative 'absolute zero', and if both of those turn out to be 'facts' then pretty much the whole idea of 'absolute zero' is blown out of the water 'so to speak'. Nova has a great special called Absolute Zero that you can rent from Netflix that tells about the history of 'cold'. I recommend it to anyone interested in this topic.
What is the temperature at which all molecular motion stops?
This is called absolute zero. The temperature is 0 Kelvin or -273.15 degrees Celsius.
Point where all molecules stop moving?
In theory, all molecular motion ceases at absolute zero which is 0 Kelvin (-273.15 degrees Celsius). At this temperature, the molecules have minimal energy and stop moving completely. However, reaching absolute zero is not practically possible.
What happens to a real gas (nitrogen gas) as it cools from room temp to 0 K absolute zero Would you expect it to disappear when it reached absolute zero?
As a real gas like nitrogen cools from room temperature to absolute zero, it will contract and eventually condense into a liquid or solid depending on the pressure. At absolute zero, molecular motion ceases, but the gas does not disappear. Instead, it transitions into a state of minimum energy, which could be a solid or liquid depending on the conditions.
Is it possible for an object to have zero velocity?
Zero relative velocity to another object, sure no problem. Zero absolute velocity, not possible as there is no absolute reference to compare to.
How do you determine absolute zero?
No molecule movement at all.
What type of energy does any object above absolute zero give off?
Any object above absolute zero gives off thermal energy in the form of heat radiation.
What happens if you touch absolute zero?
Absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature where particles have minimal motion. If you were to touch an object at absolute zero, the extreme cold would cause rapid heat transfer from your body to the object, potentially leading to frostbite or severe tissue damage. However, achieving absolute zero is currently impossible in practice.
What is meant by absolute zero temperature?
It is the coldest temperature. Nothing is colder than absolute zero. Scientists do know what happens in absolute zero because to get it to absolute zero, they have to put the object in something colder. But like mentioned above, nothing is colder than absolute zero. It is pretty much the end of the thermometer.
What is the temperature at which an object's energy is minimal is called?
The temperature at which an object's energy is minimal is called absolute zero. It is the lowest possible temperature where particle motion ceases and entropy is at its minimum. At this temperature, the object possesses no thermal energy.
Why is it impossible to cool an object below absolute zero?
Absolute zero is when the atoms of all matter will stop moving. It can't be further cooled once they stop.
Why an object can never reach a temperature of absolute zero?
As an object approaches absolute zero, its atoms and molecules lose kinetic energy and slow down, but they will never completely stop moving due to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. This principle states that it is impossible to precisely know both the position and momentum of a particle, preventing an object from reaching absolute zero.
The impossibility of reaching a temperature of absolute zero is incorporated in?
The Third Law of Thermodynamics."Absolute zero (0 K) is the lower limit of temperature. The temperature of absolute zero cannot be attained physically because to do so would require virtually all the heat to be taken from an object. Therefore, it is impossible to attain a temperature of absolute zero."
Why is it useful for me to know the absolute value of a number?
The absolute value of a number is the distance to zero. When adding which ever number has the greater absolute value will determine the sign of the answer.
What happens at zero degrees in the kelvin scale?
At zero degrees Kelvin, also known as absolute zero, all molecular motion stops. It is considered the coldest temperature in the universe, and no physical object can reach this temperature in reality.
Which is larger an object's celsius temperature or it's kelvin temperature?
Its Kelvin temperature. The Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero and goes up. Absolute zero on the celsius scale is -273.15oC
