Please answer all parts: Problem 3:   There are lots of examples of ideal gases in the universe, and they exist in many different conditions. In this problem we will examine what the temperature of these various phenomena are. Part (a)  Give an expression for the temperature of an ideal gas in terms of pressure P, particle density per unit volume ρ, and fundamental constants.  T = ______ Part (b)  Near the surface of Venus, its atmosphere has a pressure fv= 91 times the pressure of Earth's atmosphere, and a particle density of around ρv = 0.91 × 1027 m-3. What is the temperature of Venus' atmosphere (in C) near the surface?   Part (c)  The Orion nebula is one of the brightest diffuse nebulae in the sky (look for it in the winter, just below the three bright stars in Orion's belt). It is a very complicated mess of gas, dust, young star systems, and brown dwarfs, but let's estimate its temperature if we assume it is a uniform ideal gas. Assume it is a sphere of radius r = 5.7 × 1015 m…
(b) Consider the following heat system on the real line: U - U = 0, XER, 1>0 %3D u(x, 0) = | sin x), rER. i. Use the fundamental solution of the heat equation to write down a solution u to the system above as an integral. ii. Show that the solution u that you have found is bounded by 1.
Hi, could I get some help with this micro-macro connection physics problem involving root mean square speed? The set up is: For an atom in an ideal gas with rms speed in one direction, vx = 100 m/s, and mass m = 6.66e-27 kg, what is the temperature T in kelvin (K) to four digits of precision if Boltzman constant kB = 1.38e-23 J/K? Thank you.
