Suppose that z2 is the impedance of the line in the region x > 0, and that the voltage in this region takes the form v(x, t) = vt cosω c (x − c t) . give a physical interpretation of this solution. find the corresponding current, i(x, t). demonstrate that the mean energy flux down the line in the region x > 0 is hi2i = v 2 t 2 z2

An air bubble of volume 20 cm³ is at the bottom of a lake 40 m deep, where the temperature is 4.0°c. the bubble rises to the surface, which is at a temperature of 20°c.take the temperature of the bubble’s air to be the same as that of the surrounding water. just as the bubble reaches the surface, what is its volume?

James is trying to prove newton's 2nd law of motion. he tries to move four different objects with different masses, shapes, and sizes from point a to point b. the objects are a toy car, a car, a refrigerator, and a kitchen table. after some experimentation, he finds that force is dependent on the mass of the object, rather than it's size or shape. the object that takes the most force to move is the

Some material consisting of a collection of microscopic objects is kept at a high temperature. a photon detector capable of detecting photon energies from infrared through ultraviolet observes photons emitted with energies of 0.3 ev, 0.5 ev, 0.8 ev, 2.0ev, 2.5ev, and 2.8ev. these are the only photon energies observed. (a) draw and label a possible energy-level diagram for one of the microscopic objects, which has four bound states. on the diagram, indicate the transitions corresponding to the emitted photons. explain briefly. (b) would a spring–mass model be a good model for these microscopic objects? why or why not? (c) the material is now cooled down to a very low temperature, and the photon detector stops detecting photon emissions. next, a beam of light with a continuous range of energies from infrared through ultraviolet shines on the material, and the photon detector observes the beam of light after it passes through the material. what photon energies in this beam of light are observed to be significantly reduced in intensity (“dark absorption lines”)? explain briefly.
