Term
1. What is electromotive force?
2. How does it differ from the voltage deliver by a battery?
|
|
Definition
1. The intrinsic voltage capacity of a given battery.
2. Ther terminal voltage of a batter is the voltage that battery supplies across the circuit. It is found by calculating the drop in voltage across the battery due to its internal resistance and subtracting this from the electromotive force.
3. V= E -ir |

Term
3. A battery in a circuit has an electromotive force (E) and an internal resistance (r). The battery provides current (i) to the circuit. What is the terminal voltage (V)of the battery?

Sound of a known frequency, wavelength, intensity, and speed travels through air and bounces off an imperfect reflector which is moving toward the source. Which properties of sound remains the same before and after reflection?
Speed, intensity, frequency, or wavelength? |
|
Definition
Speed.
Speed of sound is only affected by medium through which it travels. Since the wave is reflected off the moving surface (not refracted), the speed will not change. |

First law of thermodynamic?
What does a positive W mean? |
|
Definition
delta U = Q-W
U=internal energy of object
Q= heat exchange
W= work done on or by the object
Positive W means work is done by the object.

A balloon at the bottom of a water tank is allowed to rise freely to the surface. The air temperature inside the balloon decreases as the depth increases. Why would this be? |
|
Definition
- Boyle's law tells us that the volume of the balloon must be increasing as the pressure decreases: P1V1=P2V2
- We know pressure is decreasing bc gauge pressure =density*g*z. z=depth. The greater the depth, the greater the pressure.
- The bloon's volume is increasing, which means the gas inside the bloon is expanding so it's doing work.
- Using first law of thermodynamics, one know that delta U = -W (since no heat is exchanged, Q is not considered in this equation).
- W is positive since work is done by the balloon. This means that delta U is negative. The balloon does work at the expense of its internal energy.
- Since internal energy (U) is directly related to temp: U=(3/2)nRT, a decrease in internal energy results in a decrease of its temperature.
Final answer: The work done by the gas in expanding decreases its internal energy.

Term
A gas that occupies 10L at 1 atm and 250C will occupy somwhat more than .02L at 500atm and 250C. Why? |
|
Definition
Because of the space occupied by the individual gas molecules at this pressure. Ideal gas law assume that molecules have NO VOLUME. This assumption is true when gas is at 1atm, but when pressure is increased to 500atm, the volume is no longer negligible. |
