<h1>254: i could have sworn it asked where is it liquid, which would be C (thats for number 1 on the test)</h1>

<p>hm i think ur right. so is that the same question as
[quote]
2. The question im talking about is pick the graph - as the distance between two point charges increases ,the force between them decreases hyperbolically (THIS IS A PiCK THE GRAPH QUESTION)

[/quote]
?</p>

<p>grade inflation, when you said "i think ur right" in 262, who were you talking to?? and i agree with the answer to the one you quoted</p>

<p>to 1991. it asked boiling so it was D sorry =[</p>

<p>1991- i Dont remember the question, but this is how you do it</p>

<p>U = Q +W</p>

<p>IF the gas is compressed, you do +W
If the gas expands, you do -W
If heat is absorbed, you do +Q
If heat is released, you do -Q</p>

<p>So say, hypothetically, that the gas compresses 20 J and releases 10 J of heat</p>

<p>Internal energy increases by 10 </p>

<p>^THIS IS NOT THE ANSWER BTW< JUST A HYPOTHETICAL SITUATION</p>

<p>gradeinflation and everyone else: I know that number 2 asked for boiling, which was d
but what did number 1 ask for and what was the answer</p>

<p>and for that one with the plane mirror and concave lens, were they at angles towards each other??</p>

<p>1 asked for completely solid water, which would be < 0 degrees celcius</p>

<p>yeah it was A</p>

<p>so how many do we need? and how many do we have? lol</p>

<p>any more? :p</p>

<p>I remember something about the earth's velocity changing as it orbits the sun in a I II III question (unless that's a practice test I took). Anyone? Oh, and can someone post a compiled list ?</p>

<p>i think i remember that earth/sun one too. umm... i think the magnitude of the force on each is always the same. the acceleration experienced by each is not the same, and the earth does not have the same kinetic energy throughout its orbit or something.</p>

<p>KE is the same. but V is not. Kepler's law</p>

<p>Wait a minute...
If v is different, wouldn't KE be different?
Remember, KE = (1/2)mv^2
Therefore, KE is proportional to v</p>

<p>no, oops i meant Total mechanical energy is the same. KE and PE change</p>

<p>Okay, here's my list, not complete, definitely not in order (except for the ones with +s to the left). Has some unique information:</p>

<p>so how many dont we know? :p</p>

<p>lol we dont know 20? thought we knew more than that :D</p>

<p>I think we do, but I'm too lazy to dig through this thread and figure everything out. I think we have most of it.</p>
