A paddle wheel frictionally adds thermal energy to an ideal monatomic gas in a sealed, insulated container. The paddle wheel is driven by a cord connected to a falling object as shown in the drawing. In this experiment, a 5.0-kg object falls through a total distance of 2.0 m and the temperature of the gas is found to increase by 4 C°. Assume that all of the mechanical energy lost by the falling object goes into the gas. How many moles of gas must be present in this container?

How could you determine which bar was the magnet : If you had two bars of iron – one magnetized and one un-magnetized – and no other material at hand, how could you determine which bar was the magnet. Explain.

Estimate the size of H atom and energy of the ground state : Use the uncertainty principle to estimate the size of an H atom and the energy of the ground state. Then, assuming some radius r, calculate the related uncertainty in momentum p to get the KE. Minimize the total energy to determine r and the ground..
