Is there suppose to be an image?
true if you are refering to the desing of the experimnt as it does identify the variable
Conduction. Any material that easily allows heat to move through it. Vacuum. A region of space that contains no matter. Solid.
Answer:
x = 1.00486 m
Explanation:
The complete question is:
" The potential energy between two atoms in a particular molecule has the form U(x) =(2.6)/x^8 −(5.1)/x^4 where the units of x are length and the num- bers 2.6 and 5.1 have appropriate units so that U(x) has units of energy. What is the equilibrium separation of the atoms (that is the distance at which the force between the atoms is zero)? "
Solution:
- The correlation between force F and energy U is given as:
F = - dU / dx
F = - d[(2.6)/x^8 −(5.1)/x^4] / dx
F = 20.8 / x^9 - 20.4 / x^5
- The equilibrium separation distance between atoms is given when Force F is zero:
0 = 20.8 / x^9 - 20.4 / x^5
0 = 20.8 - 20.4*x^4
x^4 = 20.8/20.4
x = ( 20.8/20.4 )^0.25
x = 1.00486 m
