True /False  Most of the thermal energy which started fusion reactions in the Sun originated as thermal energy in the large, hot dark nebula.

A piston contains 600 moles of an ideal monatomic gas that initally has a pressure of 2.44 × 105 Pa and a volume of 1.8 m3. The piston is connected to a hot and cold reservoir and the gas goes through the following quasi-static cycle accepting energy from the hot reservoir and exhausting energy into the cold reservoir. The pressure of the gas is increased to 5.44 × 105 Pa while maintaining a constant volume. The volume of the gas is increased to 8.8 m3 while maintaining a constant pressure. The pressure of the gas is decreased to 2.44 × 105 Pa while maintaining a constant volume. The volume of the gas is decreased to 1.8 m3 while maintaining a constant pressure. It may help you to recall that CV C V = 12.47 J/K/mole and CP C P = 20.79 J/K/mole for a monatomic ideal gas, and that the number of gas molecules is equal to Avagadros number (6.022 × 1023) times the number of moles of the gas. 1) How much energy is transferred into the gas from the hot reservoir? J 2) How much energy is transferred out of the gas into the cold reservoir? J 3) How much work is done by the gas? J 4) What is the efficiency of this cycle?

A rocket is launched at an angle of 53.0° above the horizontal with an initial speed of 98 m/s. The rocket moves for 3.00 s along its initial line of motion with an acceleration of 31.0 m/s2. At this time, its engines fail and the rocket proceeds to move as a projectile.

A 3.10-N metal bar, 2.00 m long and having a resistance of 10.0 Ω, rests horizontally on conducting wires connecting it to the circuit shown in the figure (Figure 1) . The bar is in a uniform, horizontal, 1.40-T magnetic field and is not attached to the wires in the circuit.

What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the bar just after the switch S is closed?

You've decided to build a radio to listen to your favourite FM radio station, which broadcasts at 102.9 MHz. For the tuner, you'll be using an RLC circuit, but the only inductor you happen to have on hand has a value of 0.870 μH.

Unfortunately, there's another radio station — which you don't want to listen to — at a nearby frequency of 103.3 MHz. To prevent any interference from this 103.3 MHz radio station, you want the peak current from it to be no more than 0.160% of the peak current from your favourite 102.9 MHz station. What value of resistor should you use in your RLC circuit? (Assume the two stations have the same strength.)

Hint:You'll have to first calculate the value of the capacitor so that the radio tunes to 102.9 MHz.

An ice cube of mass 11.4 g and initial temperature -6.0°C is held in your hand such that the water resulting from the melted ice reaches the temperature of your hand, 36.2°C. In order to accomplish this, how much heat (in kJ) must be absorbed by the ice cube and resulting water? Assume that all the water remains in your hand. Hint: Tables 14.1 and 14.2 in your textbook will be useful here.
