The Dungeons & Dragons spell “Stinking Cloud” fills a 949 m^3 volume of air with a cloud of gas. The pressure of the gas is the same as the air, 101,325 Pa, and is at 29.2°C. There are 2.304x10^28 molecules of gas. What is the total internal energy of the gas?
The Fiero, which is 4.70 m long, starts at 10.0˚C while in the upper atmosphere but when it goes into space the temperature would be about -270.3˚C. How much should the steel siding of the Fiero shrink due to this temperature change? The coefficient of thermal linear expansion for steel is 11.0⋅10−6⋅10^-6 C-1

- Four capacitors are connected as shown in the figure below. (Let C = 12.0 µF.) A circuit consists of four capacitors. It begins at point a before the wire splits in two directions. On the upper split, there is a capacitor C followed by a 3.00 µF capacitor. On the lower split, there is a 6.00 µF capacitor. The two splits reconnect and are followed by a 20.0 µF capacitor, which is then followed by point b.
