If this plastic cup is heated to its melting point, what will eventually happen to all the particles in the plastic? a. the particles will begin to move enough that they slide past each other. b. bonds will form and the liquid will become a solid. c. the spaces between the particles will get smaller. d. the particles will change state and become a crystalline solid.

Two forces produce equal torques on a door about the door hinge. the first force is applied at the midpoint of the door; the second force is applied at the doorknob. both forces are applied perpendicular to the door. which force has a greater magnitude?

Two kilograms of air within a piston–cylinder assembly executes a carnot power cycle with maximum and minimum temperatures of 800 k and 300 k, respectively. the heat transfer to the air during the isothermal expansion is 60 kj. at the end of the isothermal expansion the volume is 0.4 m3. assume the ideal gas model for the air. determine the thermal efficiency, the volume at the beginning of the isothermal expansion, in m3, and the work during the adiabatic expansion, in kj.
