A mechanical pressure release valve opens at pre designed pressure and then automatically closes once pressure drops to a lower point generally around 5 to 10% of the designed release pressure.

Hi everyone,
I have a fundamental question to the first part of Swendsen's Intro to StatMech and Thermodynamics (book).
Suppose we have two isolated systems of volumes ##V_1## and ##V_2##. We distribute ##N## ideal gas particles across the two systems with total energy ##E##.
Suppose we bring...
We know linear spring force F = kx(t), k = spring constant, during any moment t of energy release.
displacement x(t) = ʃv(t)dt
the power p = F*V = kx(t)v(t)= kv(t)* ʃv(t)dt
My question:
Is there a mathematical function of special v(t) to make power p constant?
Fermilab's E989 experiment is conducting the first precision measurement of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon (muon g-2) since the Brookhaven lab did so fifteen years ago. It is currently collecting Run-3 data for this experiment, and said that it would be releasing preliminary Run-1...
If there was no atmosphere and a point mass was released at the 45th parallel and able to counteract the centripetal force of gravity (hovering 10ft off the surface), how long would it take before it ended up at the equator.

Hi. We know that bond formation releases energy and bond break absorbs energy. I still don't figure out why ATP hydrolysis (that breaks a bond between oxygen and phosphorous) releases energy, and it releases a LOT.

So I was wondering why do nucleons need to remove mass to form a nucleus. Is it because it lowers the energy of the nucleus making it more stable or something completely different. I understand that it is the energy input to break the nucleus into its components, however, why do nuclear reaction...
If I have a container filled with oxygen and hydrogen and heat it up, it would react and create water and heat. Why was heat released? What happens in chemical reactions at a microscopic level that makes it release energy in the form of heat?
Hey people,
I have a pressure vessel pressurized to say 20MPa at 33C, of which I'm working with a gas (scCO2 to be exact) which will then be released into the atmosphere (standard pressure and temperature) through a release valve; I'm wondering how long it will take for the pressure to reach...

After an electron absorbs a photon, it will move to a higher energy state. It then releases a photon and returns to its ground state. But why does the electron release the photon? Why does it not remain in that energy state? What forces it to return to ground state?

I am working on a mechanism which controls the release of energy while remaining energy efficient. An image of the concept is shown below. (The image is meant simply to get an idea of how it would work- it is by no means perfect).

Life on Earth started approximately 3.5 billion years ago. On Earth's surface there was a finite quantity of carbon, among other finite building blocks of life. Organisms absorb this carbon, then they die. After death the organisms carbon (and other life essential ingredients) are released and...
So, as far as I know free electrons are just electrons that have been 'released' from the shell of an atom and can now move. If this is true, what is it that causes the electron to become free in the first place?
