    Intensive Properties

    • 555 Words
    • 3 Pages

    An intensive property is a physical quantity whose value does not depend on the amount of the substance for which it is measured. For example‚ the temperature of a system in thermal equilibrium is the same as the temperature of any part of it. If the system is divided the temperature of each subsystem is identical. The same applies to the density of a homogeneous system: if the system is divided in half‚ the mass and the volume change in the identical ratio and the density remains unchanged. According

    The art of wave riding (‘he’enalu’‚ in old Hawaiian) was practiced in many coastal locations around the tropics among Pacific Islanders. "He’e" means to go from a solid to a liquid and "nalu" means surfing motion of a wave. This stand-up pastime of surfing came to its climax in Hawaii not only because of its coast having warm water and constant waves but Hawaiians are innately ocean people. Traditionally surfing prowess gained you social rank and power politically in the village. Commoners could

    Exercise No. 2 COLLIGATIVE PROPERTIES (Full Report) I. INTRODUCTION Colligative properties In liquid solutions‚ particles are close together and the solute molecules or ions disrupt intermolecular forces between the solvent molecules‚ causing changes in those properties of the solvent that depend in intermolecular attraction. For example‚ the freezing point of a solution is lower than that of the of the pure solvent and the boiling point is higher. Colligative properties of solution are those that

    Standing Waves Lab

    • 3 Pages

    Objective The objective of this lab was to use standing waves in a resonance tube in order to measure the speed of sound. Standing waves were used due their constructive and destructive interference‚ which lead to nodes and antinodes in the wave.The nodes could be marked because they were silent‚ and the antinodes were loud. Hypothesis We expect to find a linear relationship between wavelength and period because the speed of sound is constant. The frequency will inversely change the wavelength

    Radio waves and Microwaves Radio communications Radio waves are used to broadcast radio or television signals from transmitters‚ which are then converted into electrical signals with an aerial (which is made out of metal to absorb the radio waves) so you can hear and see them. When done so the aerial converts this wave into an electrical signal (because of the electromagnetic waves energy exciting particles in the aerial and causing them to oscillate/vibrate and thus create an electrical current)
