Answer:
Because the object should shrink its volume to zero, which is impossible
Explanation:
Let's talk about gases for simplicity. Ideal gases are governed by the ideal gas equation:
where
p is the gas pressure
V is the volume of the gas
n is the number of moles
R is the gas constant
T is the absolute temperature
From the formula, we see that T and V are directly proportional: therefore, in order for a gas to have an absolute temperature of zero, it must also have a volume of zero, which is impossible.
Wouldn't it be neat if an electron falling closer to the nucleus ... emitting a
photon ... actually gave out more energy than it needed to climb to its original
energy level by absorbing a photon ! If there were some miraculous substance
that could do that, we'd have it made.
All we'd need is a pile of it in our basement, with a bright light bulb over the pile,
connected to a tiny hand-crank generator.
Whenever we wanted some energy, like for cooking or heating the house, we'd
switch the light bulb on, point it towards the pile, and give the little generator a
little shove. It wouldn't take much to git 'er going.
The atoms in the pile would absorb some photons, raising their electrons to higher
energy levels. Then the electrons would fall back down to lower energy levels,
releasing more energy than they needed to climb up. We could take that energy,
use some of it to keep the light bulb shining on the pile, and use the extra to heat
the house or run the dishwasher.
The energy an electron absorbs when it climbs to a higher energy level (forming
the atom's absorption spectrum) is precisely identical to the energy it emits when
it falls back to its original level (creating the atom's emission spectrum).
Energy that wasn't either there in the atom to begin with or else pumped
into it from somewhere can't be created there.
You get what you pay for, or, as my grandfather used to say, "For nothing
you get nothing."
The reason why there is no energy shortage nor will there ever be is because energy is being preserved and conserved and only changes form. It never gets lost or increased.
Answer:
1456 N
Explanation:
Given that
Frequency of the piano, f = 27.5 Hz
Entire length of the string, l = 2 m
Mass of the piano, m = 400 g
Length of the vibrating section of the string, L = 1.9 m
Tension needed, T = ?
The formula for the tension is represented as
T = 4mL²f²/ l, where
T = tension
m = mass
L = length of vibrating part
F = frequency
l = length of the whole part
If we substitute and apply the values we have Fri. The question, we would have
T = (4 * 0.4 * 1.9² * 27.5²) / 2
T = 4368.1 / 2
T = 1456 N
Thus, we could conclude that the tension needed to tune the string properly is 1456 N
