Question
Chapter 11, Problem 3Q
To determine
Why a mixture of two common isotopes of oxygen, oxygen-16 and oxygen-18, is put in a cylindrical chamber that is then spun around its long axis at a very high speed. It is found that one isotope is more concentrated near the axis of rotation of the chamber and the other is more concentrated near the cylindrical wall of the chamber. Which isotope is located near the axis?

In one of the videos I said that a typical American household uses energy at a rate of about 10,000 joules per second. A shorthand unit for this would be "10 kilowatts". Using energy at this rate costs about $1.50 per hour (this is not quite right, as it assumes that all the energy is electrical energy, which is relatively cheap, but let's go with this for an estimate). How much does this energy usage cost for a year?
Please don't provide handwritten solution ........
Pls help me with all of them. They just require explanation.... sorry I need help at the moment.... thanks
