Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change its shape, area, volume, and density in response to a change in temperature, usually not including phase transitions.Temperature is a monotonic function of the average molecular kinetic energy of a substance. When a substance is heated, molecules begin to vibrate and move more, usually creating more distance between themselves. Substances which contract with increasing temperature are unusual, and only occur within limited temperature ranges (see examples below). The relative expansion (also called strain) divided by the change in temperature is called the material's coefficient of linear thermal expansion and generally varies with temperature. As energy in particles increases, they start moving faster and faster weakening the intermolecular forces between them, therefore expanding the substance.
So if I am understanding the question correctly, I need to find the change in temperature that causes one rights outer radii to be the same as another rings inner radii.
Now what I tried is two equations
change length_1= a_1*original length_inner * change in temp
change length_2= a_2*original...

I’m coming at this question with a physics application in mind so apologies if my language is a bit sloppy in places but I think the answer to my question is grounded in math so I’ll post it here.
Say I have a function F(z) defined in the complex z plane which has branch points at z=0 and z =...
I tried to solve the task in different ways, I had different ideas but none of them led me to the correct solution.
I would be grateful if someone would explain at least the initial part of the task to me.
True answer: 10-3K-1
When trying to describe why the entropy goes up for a irreversible process, such as gas expanding into a vacuum, it seems fairly easy at a high level. the valve between the two chambers opens, the free expansion occurs, the pressure drops proportional to the volume change and the temp remains...
Good day
and here is the solution, I have questions about
I don't understand why when in the taylor expansion of exponential when x goes to infinity x^7 is little o of x ? I could undesrtand if -1<x<1 but not if x tends to infinity?
many thanks in advance!
Hello everyone,
Once I got through the VDW state equation I came to the expression of the thermal expansion coefficient. When I place the values I get an illogical answer. Is there a problem with the units? (Please ignore the values)
Thanks.
This is the unit equation I get to and get stuck:
Hello,

FIRST TYPE: REVERSIBLE PROCESS At the temperature of 127 ° C, 1 L of CO2 is reversibly compressed from the pressure of 380 mmHg to that of 1 atm. Calculate the heat and labor exchanged assuming the gas is ideal. Q = L = - 34.95 J

Here I'm going to show all that I've understood -
1.
2.
3.
What I've attempted -
L = Lo (1+ α * ẟT)
ẟT = 150°C - 15°C = 135°C
(Steel) L = ẟL (1 + 11 * 10^-6 * 135)
(Copper) L = ẟL (1 + 17 * 10^-6 * 135)
This doesn't get me anywhere, obviously.
Am I supposed to understand from the...
I know how to expand it. My question is: the expansion has 8 terms so what would be the middle term? Will the answer be "the expansion has no middle term"?
Or maybe seeing the phrase of the question (middle terms), there will be two answers (the 4th and 5th term)?
Thanks
Please note that
I'll write ##A^{\mu} := A^{\mu}(x)## for simplicity.
I'll work in natural units.
The Lagrangian density ##\mathscr{L} = -\frac 1 2 (\partial_{\mu} A_{\nu})(\partial^{\mu} A^{\nu})## has equations of motion
$$\Box A^{\mu}=0 \tag{1}$$
We expand ##A^{\mu}## in a complete set...
So here's my homework question:
This is the reference formula along with the Rung-Kutta form with the variables mentioned in the question
Here is my attempt so far:
Problem is that i am unsure how to expand this to even get going. I tried referencing my text Math Methods by Boas which has...
Ideally, the method should be accurate down to 0.01 millimetres or better.
We're probably talking pipes of up to 150 mm (6") diameter.
Accurately measuring the actual diameter of the pipe is of less importance - it's how much it expands that matters.
My idea is wrapping something around the...
I'm reading "introduction to many body physics" by Piers Coleman. In section 7.2 he's trying to introduce Feynman diagrams by expanding the generating functional. But first he transforms it into this pictorial form:
Then he calculates the n=1, m=1 term like below:
Which I understand. But I...
Normally expansion implies colding, but I don't know how to explain this with the equation of perfect gazes : ##PV=nRT##
If V increase then the pressure diminishes. Admitting a constant number of molecules, is the number of shocks is inversely proportional to the volume ? But this only implies...
Does anyone know how I can relate the diffraction in a circular crack to the thermal expansion of that crack?
Something that I relate the gap radius with the distances between the light and dark fractions of the diffraction figure.
So I think I may be overcomplicating this problem but I realize that in order to find the x^3 term it will be the product of the two binomials, ie. x^1*x^2=x^3. The coefficient of x^3 will be the coefficient of x^1 in the first bracket multiplied by the coefficient of x^2 in the second bracket...
My idea is this: tensor stress is directly related to the internal pressure of a solid. That is to the force that the neighboring atoms exert each other in relation to a unit of surface.
When I heat a solid we can have the phenomenon of thermal expansion: this is connected to the fact that a...
Since distances increase, their first derivative which is velocity (Hubble constant) should be positive if not increasing too. Accelerated expansion needs the velocity to increase. What about the third derivative which is acceleration? An accelerated universe could have third derivative (called...
I am certain that my confusion here rests in a misunderstanding on my part and not in a mistake having been made by countless physical theorists. Nevertheless, I have had a hard time wrapping my head around it. Here is the crux:
We observe that light from distant objects is more redshifted...

I was puzzling over how to solve this and finally peeked at the solution. They used the relevant equation above.
I disagree with this though. The problem specifically says “the piston is allowed to slide freely!” This means that we don’t let it happen slowly. So then we are not in...
Wikipedia says,
Unlike a free expansion , in Joule Thomson expansion work is done causing the change in internal energy. Whether the internal energy increases or decreases is determined by whether work is done on or by the fluid; that is determined by the initial and final states of the...
Hi everyone,
I am confused when I apply Euler's equation on the free expansion of an ideal gas.
Consider a free expansion (expansion of gas in vaccum) where the volume is doubled (V->2V)
The classical free expansion of an ideal gas results in increase in entropy by an amount of nR ln(2), a...

In the contex of ##L^2## space, it is usually stated that any square-integrable function can be expanded as a linear combination of Spherical Harmonics:

Does the expansion of the universe affect orbits? Would the orbits of the Magellanic Clouds, for example, be different if the universe were not expanding? If orbits are affected, at what scale do we first detect the effects?
So guys I had physics lab where we used Steam Generator, Pasco interface and Capstone. In a nutshell there is graph attached below and formula, please write the solution with this formula.
Previous of this problem, there was another problem. that is "What is the change in Temperature of van der Waals gas in free expansion?".
I got them.
It was
C_V dT= -aN^2/V^2 dV
Then, I got
T=T0-aN^2/2VC_V
So i knew that the Temperature is decreased by free expansion in adiabatic process.
Then I...

Hi,
An irreversible gas expansion is often described in textbooks with a compressed gas in a cylinder pushing up a weight (with mass m) via a hypothetical friction-less and weightless piston. It is said the work done by the gas is equal to -mg × h and from this you can derive the work for a...

The expansion of space is about 68 km/s/Mpc, or 0.00002 km/s/light year. The radius of the sun is about 700000 km. Thus, initially ignoring additional forces, the change in radius of the sun due to the expansion of space is about 1.5*10^-9 m/sec, or 5 cm/year.
I assume that this expansion is...
