7.study the scenario. a small container of water with a low temperature is poured into a large container of water with a higher temperature. which choice correctly explains what happens to the thermal energy of these systems? the smaller container of water has more heat and thermal energy than the larger container. some heat and thermal energy is transferred to the larger container of water. the larger container of water has more heat and thermal energy than the smaller container. some heat and thermal energy is transferred to the smaller container of water. the larger container of water has more thermal energy and some of that energy is transferred to the colder water in a process known as heating. the smaller container of water has more thermal energy than the larger container, and some of that energy is transferred to the warmer water in a process known as heating.

Aforce of 34n stretches a very light ideal spring 0.73 m from equilibrium, what is the force constant (spring constant) of the spring? (a) 47n/m (b) 38n/m (c) 53n/m (d) 25n/m

Ahydroelectric plant takes energy from water and turns it into electrical energy. what are the transformations of energy in the water molecules that are used in the process of generating electricity this way?

Chapter 23, problem 075 the figure shows a geiger counter, a device used to detect ionizing radiation (radiation that causes ionization of atoms). the counter consists of a thin, positively charged central wire surrounded by a concentric, circular, conducting cylindrical shell with an equal negative charge. thus, a strong radial electric field is set up inside the shell. the shell contains a low-pressure inert gas. a particle of radiation entering the device through the shell wall ionizes a few of the gas atoms. the resulting free electrons (e) are drawn to the positive wire. however, the electric field is so intense that, between collisions with gas atoms, the free electrons gain energy sufficient to ionize these atoms also. more free electrons are thereby created, and the process is repeated until the electrons reach the wire. the resulting "avalanche" of electrons is collected by the wire, generating a signal that is used to record the passage of the original particle of radiation. suppose the radius of the central wire is 24 âµm, the inner radius of the shell 2.3 cm, and the length of the shell 14 cm. if the electric field at the shell's inner wall is 2.8 ă— 104 n/c, what is the total positive charge on the central wire?
