Why is the speed of light a good meaning to determine distance is the universe?
The speed of light is constant, so we can use it to calculate distance by measuring the time it takes for light to travel from a source to an observer. This principle forms the basis of astronomical measurements and allows us to determine vast distances in the universe.
Is vapor a liquid a solid or a gas?
Water (H2O) comes in three different physical states; liquid, solid and gas. Water vapor is water in a gaseous state. Water vapor can be produced from the evaporation or boiling of liquid water or through the sublimation of ice. Typically water vapor is constantly being created by evaporation. Unlike the solid or liquid state of water, water vapor is not visible to the human eye.
Zinc is stronger agent than hydrogen and thus tends to hydrogen and it out of the solution?
Hey! I have the same class don't worry I found it out: Zinc is a stronger reducing agent than hydrogen and thus tends to reduce the hydrogen and force it out of the solution. Hope that Helps! :)
What will be the Specific heat during an isothermal process?
That's kind of a trick question. Specific heat - also known as "heat capacity" is the energy required to change the temperature by a fixed amount. In the case of an isothermal process, the temperature isn't changing.
Since specific heat is defined as (δH/δT), isothermal heat capacity would be (δH/δT)T which means, in English, the change in enthalpy with a change in temperature when the temperature isn't changing... you see the problem. If δT = 0, then δH/δT = ±∞ (positive if heat is added to the system to keep the temperature constant, negative if heat was removed to keep it isothermal)
You could write some equations such that the heat capacity becomes a term in the equation. What you will generally find though is that the heat capacity is multiplying a dT term and when dT is zero, that term drops out and heat capacity is irrelevant for the calculation.
Solid solutions are common in materials science, where two or more elements form a homogeneous mixture at the atomic level. Examples include alloys like steel (iron and carbon) and brass (copper and zinc). They exhibit unique properties such as increased strength or corrosion resistance compared to pure metals.
When You are making a circular turn in your car when you hit a big patch of ice causing the force of friction between the tires and the road to become zero While the car is on the ice what does it moves along a straight line path.
Solid, liquid, and gas are the three states of matter. Solids have a fixed shape and volume, liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container, and gases have neither a fixed shape nor volume and fill the container they are in.
What is a metals ability to bend called?
A metal's ability to bend without breaking is called malleability. Metals with high malleability can be easily bent or shaped into various forms without fracturing.
What type of wood cannot be penetrated by a bullet?
All wood can be penetrated to an extent. It depends on the thickness and mass of a given piece of wood that decides how far the bullet will penetrate or if it will exit out the other side
Is wax melting an irreversible reaction?
Wax melting is a reversible physical change, not a chemical reaction. When wax melts, it changes from a solid to a liquid state due to the application of heat. Once the heat is removed, the liquid wax will solidify back into a solid form without undergoing any chemical changes.
If One kg of air is compressed from 1 m3 to 0.5 what happens to density?
Density is a measure of mass per unit of volume. Assuming no air leaks out while we compress it, the mass doesn't change. Since the volume is now half as much as before and the mass is the same, the density has doubled.
No, crystal is not a metal. Crystal refers to a solid material whose atoms are arranged in a highly ordered, repeating pattern, giving it distinct physical properties. Metals, on the other hand, are elements that typically have high electrical conductivity, luster, and malleability.
Importance of physics in the society?
differentiate of science and technology? science is the study of forces and interactions between different "things" both animate or inanimate. technology can be referred to as "things" which we make, but were developed by applying scientific law, knowing what such "things" are capable of doing
What is reduction factor of tangent galvanometer?
The reduction factor of a tangent galvanometer is the ratio of the tangent of the angle of deflection produced by a given current to the actual value of that current. It is used to calibrate the instrument so that the deflection angle can be directly related to the current flowing through it.
In the realm of fighter jets it was found that the smaller the pilot, the better they were able to withstand the rather large accelerations involved in high speed turns. These acceleration forces are very similar to a gravitational force and can be measured in multiples of g, the unit force of gravitational acceleration.
As small people are better at withstanding g forces it was the females that tended to dominate in this area. Therefore anybody who excelled at withstanding g forces, whether male or female, ended up getting called a g queen.
ans:
sorry, dont understand term "2 block" or "s2"
otherwise grav potential energy = m.g.h
= (9.8m/s/s).(2kg).(3m) I assumed the 2 means 2kg: is units of mass?
= 58.8J
the force due to grav on earth on a 2kg mass would be m.g = (9.8m/s/s).(2kg) = 19.6N
The vibrations.
If a glass exhibits resonance (a clear tone when struck or tapped it exhibits resonance) it can be shattered by using sound waves at that frequency. This causes distortions in the surface which build and cause it to shatter.
What is the advantage to a gymnast of being short in stature?
Many gymnastic moves involve a rapid rotation of the body about a horizontal axis passing through the center of gravity of the body. The difficulty of doing this is proportional to the gymnast's "radius of gyration", and this depends largely on the gymnast's stature.
Shorter people can somersault quicker.
How much force does an 70 kg astronaut exert on his chair while sitting at rest on the launch pad?
a 70kg anything on the earth surface, that isn't subject to buoyancy, will exert 70kg times 9.8m/s/s newtons = 686
this is assuming his feet aren't touching the ground and his whole weight is supported by the chair of course.
What is the difference between electron-phonon and phonon-electron interaction?
Basic Answer:
The terms "electron-phonon interaction" and "phonon-electron interaction" mean the same thing and one almost always hears the former and not the latter. In a nutshell the term refers to the fact that the usual idea of separating the quantum system of electrons and the quantum system of vibrations (phonons) is an approximation that does not answer questions about the exchange of energy between the two systems. The next most sophisticated treatment involves including a term in the Hamiltonian that approximates the mechanism for that energy exchange. That term is called the electron-phonon interaction term.
Addendum on Electron-Phonon Interaction:
If the question were posed asking to explain the electron-phonon interaction, this answer would have to discuss the process of calculating electronic energies for fixed nuclei and then solving the problem where the nuclei are allowed to move within the adiabatic approximation. That leads to the two quantum systems mentioned above and thus to the need for an improvement which treats electrons and nuclei both being treated at the same time in a quantum mechanical fashion. One proceeds with an electronic Hamiltonian and a nuclear coordinate Hamiltonian and adds a third term called the electron-phonon interaction which is meant to be a good approximation to the full quantum system and is amenable to reasonable approximation methods.
What would happen to humans if they traveled at the speed of light?
as it reaches light speed the matter will just start vanishing and disappearing which is why you can not go into light speed, light is not matter. warp drive is really the only way because it makes a sphere in the space time continuum, pushing the space forward but not you and you stay in really time and it would take less time the more concentrated the space-time is.
Do electrons in a DC circuit travel at the speed of light?
The electrons themselves do not move at the speed of light. Electrons in a DC circuit move because of the application of an electric field. Like molecules in a gas, the charge carriers, electrons, undergo a Brownian-like motion through the conductor. The average drift velocity can be calculated by I=nAvQ, where I is current, n is the number of charged particles, A is the cross section area of the conductor, v is drift velocity, and Q is the charge on each particle.
Why crystalline solids have sharp melting points whereas amorphous do not?
"As the atoms of Crystalline solids have specific shape and same distance,so they have same K.E,intermolecular forces of attraction and geometrical shape due to which Crystalline solids are blessed sharp melting points."
