Q

For heating up a flask of air using water bath , measuring pressure using tubing and pressure gauge , how to ensure this accurate

A
  • ensure most of the flask under water
  • ensure rubber tubing volume is small compared to the flask (so minimal volume lost)

Q

How to ensure heating is uniform , so you are at CONSTSNT temo

A

MUST remove heat source and then STIR the
Water to ensure CONSTSNT temperature of water: ALWAYS STIR

Q

Why when heating and changing temp quick is not good idea, what do we need to do

What should we do with thermometer

A

It is unlikely the heat would go to the thing wanting to heat, likely to lag. So allow time for heat energy to actually conduct before reading temperature

1) leave thermometer in for long to allow it to reach thermal equilibrium with the water, give time

Q

Why is the pv against t graph in degrees not go through origin?

A

To go through origin at 0° either pressure or velocity or both must be 0

At 0° there is both pressure and velocity, but at 0K the pressure and velocity is 0

Q

Remember internal energy of gas , the whole gas would be?

A

Energy if one gas atom Multiplied by all gas atoms = moles x avagadro

Rememebr internal energy of a gas = kinetic, it has no potential

Q

Stupid, geostationary orbit Ofer another planet can have it down time period, just remember 3 conditond

A

Same orbit as planet
- equatorial
- same direction as spin

Q

Grav potential is negative x on surface of earth what does this mean
With unite j per kg

A

It means the work done per KG in bringing test form infinity to that point = this, as it’s negative it means energy is needed to separate

Q

Remember when a rocket in orbitnslows down to move lower in orbit and then increase speed to catch up and then speeds up to move higher, how can we explain using energy

A

Easy, just say when goes down change in potential is negative so enegry cinverted to ke and speeds up, vice cee a

Q

Use kinetic theory to explain why some helium particles have more than the rewuired escape velocoyt

A

Random motion and elastic Collisons of partviled

Lead to distribution of kinetic energies among particles shown by Boltzmann

Although have an average

Some will have enough and escape

Q

Why does mercury begin closer to the sun despite (what) still have no atmosphere compared to Pluto

A

Closer to sin means higher temp, despite having higher escpse velocity will still likely to have required to escape

Q

Why must stars that are same mass ( binary star system) diametrically oppsite when orbit ?

A
  • for them to orbit corcuale motion the centripetal force is provided by grav force
  • the centripetal force must act towards centre of rotation which is along the diameter, equidistant
  • the grvatianl atrrstcion force will also act through this line

Therefore the line connecting the stars must be diameter of a circle
