The slower-moving molecules then start to line up, but as they do so, their vibrations increase. Soon all the molecules are aligned and vibrating about fixed positions. This material is being
(a) | cooled and the material is freezing. |
(b) | heated and the material is melting. |
(c) | cooled and the material is condensing. |
(d) | heated and the material is boiling. |

What is the role of “loose” electrons in heat conductors?
(A) Loose electrons move quickly away from hot locations, making it impossible for energy to move and making the object a good insulator.
(B) Loose electrons absorb energy, giving materials a high specific heat capacity.
(C) Loose electrons vibrate and emit radiation that carries energy through the material at the speed of light.
(D) Loose electrons transfer energy rapidly through a solid.

- Two spheres are made of the same metal and have the same radius, but one is hollow and the other is solid. The spheres are taken through the same temperature increase. Which sphere expands more? (a) solid sphere, (b) hollow sphere, (c) they expand by the same amount, or (d) not enough information to say.arrow_forwardTwo glass bulbs of volumes 500 cm3 and 200 cm3 are connected by a narrow tube of negligible volume. The apparatus is filled with air and sealed. The initial pressure of the air is 1.0 105 Pa, and the initial temperature is 17C. The smaller bulb is immersed in a large amount of ice at 0C, and the larger bulb is immersed in a large pot of boiling water at a temperature of 100C for a long period of time. Determine the final pressure of the air in the bulbs. Ignore any change in the volume of the glass. Model the air as an ideal gas.arrow_forwardOne way to cool a gas is to let it expand. When a certain gas under a pressure of 5.00 106 Ha at 25.0C is allowed to expand to 3.00 times its original volume, its final pressure is 1.07 106 Pa.

Therefore, a car needs to be refueled once every 10 days. Also, the density of gasoline ranges from 0.68 to 0.78 kg/L, and its lower heating value is about 44,000 kJ/kg (i.e., 44,000 kJ of heat is released when 1 kg of gasoline is completely burned). Suppose all the problems associated with the radioactivity and waste disposal of nuclear fuels are resolved, and a car is to be powered by U-235. If a new car comes equipped with 0.1-kg of the nuclear fuel U-235, determine if this car will ever need refueling under average driving conditionsarrow_forwardWhen a gas changes phase to a liquid, it (A) neither absorbs nor emits energy.

- At night, the surface of the earth cools, mostly by radiation. The surface radiates energy upward; the much cooler sky above radiates much less. Patches of ground under trees can stay warmer, which is why, if you live somewhere that has cold, clear nights, you may have noticed some mornings when there is frost on open patches of ground but not under trees. Why does being under a tree keep the ground warmer?arrow_forwardA piece of square copper sheet with a hole in the middle was heated.
