The counts per second (cps) changes when the spot size is changed. Why?
The counts per second (cps) also changes when kV is changed. Why?
In general, which parameter would you change, spot size or kV, to increase the counts per second? Why?
This is when using an Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) or Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS).

Two kilograms of CO2 gas is contained in a piston-cylinder assembly at a pressure of 6.5 bar and a temperature of 300 K. The piston has a mass of 5000 kg and surface area of 1m2. The friction of the piston on the walls is significant and cannot be ignored. The atmospheric pressure is 1.01325 bar. The latch holding the piston in position is suddenly removed and the gas is allowed to expand. The expansion is arrested when the volume is double the original volume. Determine the work appearing in the surroundings. Will it be the same as the work done by the gas?

PROBLEM: Ammonia is used as a refrigerant. It is compressed outdoors, and the ammonia is then liquefied and circulated through the refrigerator's evaporator heat exchanger. The evaporator is indoors. The room containing the evaporator has a net open volume of 1000 m3 and a ventilation rate equal to two air changes per hour. A leak develops in an ammonia line that results in 50 g of ammonia being released per minute. 1. How long will it take for the ammonia concentration to increase to the PEL concentration? 2. How long will it take to reach the IDLH concentration? 3. If the flow of ammonia is stopped at the time the IDLH concentration is reached, how long will it be before the concentration is reduced to the PEL concentration? You may assume that the mixtures of gases are ideal at the low pressures involved. Also assume that the ammonia is mixed with the air in the room completely and instantaneously and that the air- ammonia mixture leaving the room has the same concentration as the mixture in the room. Hint: Use a differential equation and separation of variables to solve.

Consider a spherical tank of air originally at atmospheric pressure (1.013*105 N/m2). Air is being supplied at a uniform velocity of 2 m/s through a tube of diameter 2 cm. The tanks diameter is 1m. The inlet pressure is maintained at 3*105 N/m2 and the temperature of the tank and inlet pipe is 300K. Determine the time required for the pressure in the tank to reach 2*105 N/m2.

Please make sure to display your thought process? It is important to be able how the answer was deduced.
A certain extruder for plastics was found to work best at a melt viscosity of 2 X 104 Pa-s. The polymer of choice had this viscosity at 145 °C when its DPw was 700. This polymer has a Tg of 75 °C. Because of polymerization kinetics miscalculation by someone who did not take polymer science, today’s polymer has DPw of 500. At what temperature should the extruder be run so that the viscosity will remain at optimum conditions? (Assume two carbon atoms per mer backbone)

Calculate the energy required to convert 100 kg of ice at 0 degrees C and 1 atm. to water vapor at 650 degrees C and 60 bar. The heat of fusion of ice is 333.6 J/g at 0 degrees C.
Suggested path: i) convert the ice from solid to liquid, ii) heat the liquid to the boiling point, iii) convert the saturated liquid to a saturated vapor, iv) heat the vapor to the final temperature, v) pressurize the gas to the final pressure. Other paths are equally effective.
