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."
Supermalloy is a metal alloy that is 79% nickel, 5% molybdenum and 16% iron. It is used in mechanical and electronic components like hard drives. It is disigned to have a very high magnetic permeability and a low coercivity, meaning that magnetic fields can flow though it very easily. It is also a soft magnetic material, meaning that it doesn't stay magnetized itself once the magnetic field is removed.
Can a glass water pipe get hot enough to melt plastic with a BIC lighter?
It is unlikely for a glass water pipe to get hot enough to melt plastic with just a BIC lighter. Glass has a high melting point and requires more intense heat to melt compared to plastic. However, caution should always be exercised when heating glass with a flame to avoid any potential damage or injury.
A magnetic field does not interact with a?
A) stationary electric charge
B) moving electric charge
C) stationary magnet
D) a moving magnet
-- The scale itself is accelerating vertically, either upward or downward.
-- The scale and object are falling.
-- The scale and object are in an elevator which is either just starting out or just coming to rest.
-- The scale and object are on a space vehicle during or after launch, or in transit, or during re-entry or landing.
-- The scale and object are on the moon, or on another planet. In either of these cases, the scale reads
the correct 'weight', but it's not the reading you expect, since it's not the object's earth weight.
How does the vibration of atoms relate to the phases of matter?
In the solid phase, the atoms are tightly packed in a regular manner. They only vibrate in their own positions.
In the liquid phase, the atoms are slightly more disordered and irregularly packed. They can move around freely.
In the gaseous phase, the atoms have very large spaces between one another and they can move around at very high speeds.
What is the coloration efficiency for nickel oxide films?
Nickel oxide films are classified as electrochromic materials for which the optical absorbance (A) change under insertion (by electrochemical methods) of small cations like H+ (protons) and Li+. The coloration efficiency (CE) is defined for electrochromic materials as the change in the optical absorbance per unit of inserted charge Q, i.e, CE=(A1-A2)/Q, where Q is the inserted charge that promoted the (A1-A2) change in the optical absorbance of the nickel oxide film.
Is iron a metal solid or liquid?
Iron is a solid below the temperature of 1538 °C because the element's atoms form a cubic structure with high cohesion. At higher temperatures, the atoms will flow past each other without interlocking, forming a liquid. At extreme temperatures (above 2862 °C), iron will vaporize into a gas.
No of independent elastic constants required for isotropic material?
There are two independent elastic constants required for an isotropic material: Young's modulus (E) and Poisson's ratio (υ). These constants describe the material's response to mechanical deformation in different directions.
Mössbauer spectroscopy can provide valuable information on the magnetic properties of nanomaterials by revealing details about the hyperfine interactions between the nucleus and the electron cloud, such as magnetic hyperfine splitting and electric quadrupole splitting. This technique helps in understanding the magnetic structure, ordering, and dynamics of nanomaterials, including superparamagnetism and magnetic anisotropy. Mössbauer spectroscopy has been used to study various magnetic nanomaterials, such as nanoparticles and thin films, to investigate their magnetic properties for applications in data storage, magnetic sensors, and biomedical devices.
What is the length of the vocal cords for humans?
For adults, the average length of the vocal cords is around 1.6 to 2.0 centimeters. The length of the vocal cords can vary slightly between individuals but typically falls within this range.
To convert sodium to salt, you can multiply the sodium amount by 2.5. This is because salt (sodium chloride) is about 40% sodium by weight. So, if the label only provides the sodium content, multiplying by 2.5 will give you an estimate of the salt content.
Electrons move at the speed of light through conductors?
No. Three types of speed must be distinguished here:
1. The random movement of electrons is pretty fast, but still only a fraction of the speed of light. They will have this movement, whether there is a current or not.
2. The drift velocity is the average velocity of electrons when there is a current. This velocity is typically a fraction of a millimeter per second.
3. The velocity of the electric signal itself is typically about 2/3 the speed of light in a vacuum (that is, about 200,000 km/sec). What happens here is that energy is transferred from one electron to another. Imagine one electron bumping into another and pushing it forwards.
Is it possible for an object to be stationary while under acceleration?
Answer: yes
explanation: In Calculus, we have a primary equation (f(x)) which represents position 3 primary derivatives: velocity(f'(x) called f prime), acceleration(f''(x) called f double prime) and jerk(f'''(x)called f triple prime, which is irrelevant to this question). f(x) is the position of an object, f'(x) is the change in position and f''(x) is change in velocity. If we take f(x)=2x2+4x-3, we will get f'(x)=4x-4 and f''(x)=4. This means we are accelerating at any time (x). now, if we find the value f'(x)=0 (which would be a velocity of 0, or stationary), we get 0=4x-4, in which x=1. therefore f'(1)=0, but f''(1)=4. So, our acceleration after 1 second is 4 (we are accelerating), but the velocity is 0 (we are stationary for an instant).
What is ground state wave function of lithium for identical electron?
For lithium with identical electrons, the ground state wave function is a symmetric combination of the individual electron wave functions. This means that the overall wave function is symmetric under exchange of the two identical electrons. This symmetric combination arises from the requirement that the total wave function must be antisymmetric due to the Pauli exclusion principle.
