A water molecule and a neutral carbon atom are initially 5.2 ? 10?6 m apart (about 52,000 atomic diameters), and there are no other particles in the vicinity. The polarizability of a carbon atom has been measured to be ? = 1.96 ? 10?40 C · m/(N/C). A water molecule has a permanent dipole moment whose magnitude is 6.2 ? 10?30 C · m, which is much larger than the induced dipole for this situation. Assume that the dipole moment of the water molecule points toward the carbon atom. (Also assume the carbon atom is 12C.) (a) Calculate the initial magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the water molecule. magnitude m/s2 direction Correct: Your answer is correct.
(b) If the water molecule and carbon atom were initially eight times as far apart, how much smaller would the initial acceleration of the water molecule be? (Enter the ratio of the magnitudes of the accelerations.) aat 8r aat r

How are momentum and impulse related? impulse is a whim to do something, while momentum keeps it going impulse is another name fore instantaneous momentum the impulse acting on and object is equal to the change of momentum it causes. the impulse that acts on and object is the momentum that results.

Aboxcar traveling at 12 m/s approaches a string of 5 identical boxcars sitting stationary on the track. the moving boxcar collides and links with the stationary cars and they all move off together along the track. what is the final speed of the cars immediately after the collision? (you may take the mass of each boxcar to be 18,537 kg.)

Air initially at 0.75 bar, 1000 k, and occupying a volume of 0.12 m^3 undergoes two processes. process 1-2: the air is compressed isothermally until the volume is halved. process 2-3: the air undergoes a constant pressure process until the volume is halved again. assume ideal gas behavior. a) determine the mass of the air, in kg. b) the work and the heat transfer for each of the two processes, in kj. (100 kj = 1 bar . m^3)
