I think that the work is meant to be work done for instance in power stations. Or is it similar to work I do on a body when I lift it for example? But how can we then do that work on our Earth? I just need to understand the task, otherwise I want to solve it myself.

A compound of ether (0.287 g) and chloroform (0.568 g) evaporates in the temperature 373 K in an empty container with volume 0.0001m3. Find the pressure of each element. I don't know which formula of ether should I use since there are many. However even if I knew the n of...
It is known that a magnifing glass can start a fire, but I don't fully understand the phenomenon and I have the next questions:
- Does the effect depend on the shape and the material of the lens you use?
- Where can I find some details about heat produced by light or particulary on this...
Hi!
I have a question.
The experiment goes like this. i hermetically close air and chloroform at standard pressure. now i want to calculate the end pressure of gas mixture after chloroform vapor gets saturated.
is it as simple as adding up the chloroform saturated pressure to the starting air...
I was solving the question below :
"A cylinder have a piston whose mass is insignificant and moves without friction. One mole of an ideal gas is confined into the cylinder. If we expand isotermally the gass at temperature 298K, against a constant external pressure of 0.1 atm, the gas...

Tank contain an ideal gas. Known is type of gas, temperature of gas T, volume of tank V=const, pressure of gas in tank p1, and the temperature of surrounding air T (same as temperature of gas in the tank). That is state 1.
Tank has small valve that was not closed...
Homework Statement
A closed vertical cylinder contains a mobile piston that splits it in two parts of volumes V1 and V2 with a ratio V1/V2=3. Both parts contain the same mass of an ideal gas at the same temperature T.
Both chambers are heated to a temperature of 4T/3, find the ratio of the new...
Say I want to parametrize the plane. I can use cartesian (x,y) or polar (r,theta). But I cannot use x and r, because if I draw a circle and a vertical line, there are two points of intersection. I guess x and theta will do, because theta specifies a ray that will intersect any vertical line...

Find the mass of liquid lead at fussion temperature needed to heat up 1kg of liquid water from 20ºC to 60ºC, considering P = 1 atm, and a loss of 100 mg of water due to local vaporization.
My question is: what do I do with that loss of mass? Do I calculate Q for m =...
The second principle of termodynamics says:
cooler object cannot give away heat spontaneously to warmer one.
I wonder then how do cooler and wormer object appear in a closed system after they have equalized their heat.Or in other words:
Is there a way back <=> Could this phenomenon be...
