effect of pressure on conductivity of solution

does pressure(due to change in temperature) on a NaCl solution in an enclosed space(without air) affect its conductivity if volume and concentration are kept constant. Although temperature does increase conductivity, is any change due to pressure?

effect of pressure on conductivity of solution

My previous question (answered by Mutasem Sinnokrot) was perhaps unclear. When the temerature of an NaCl solution increaces(using a burner)the pressure increaces because of the enclosed space. Does the pressure have any effect on conductivity other than effecting the temperature(which does effect conductivity)?

calculate physics

what is the frequency of the second hand of a clock? the minute hand? the hour? "i wasnt sure what the wave or cycle should be in a clock"

Tuning fork

if the handle of a tuning fork is held solidly against a table, the sound from the tuning fork becomes louder. why? how will this affect the length of time the fork keeps vibrating? explain. this is a CONCEPTUAL question

Crossed Electric and Magnetic Fields

Show how an undeflected trajectory for a moving charge is obtained with appropriate crossed E and B fields. Draw seperate diagrams to illustrate your answer for a positive charge and a negative charge.

LRC Circuits

Please refer to the attached file. How much should damping ( ) affect the result of the angular frequency for impulse response? (see attachment) In equation XVI.5, the details of the differentiation of I(t) are omitted. Take the derivative of I(t) and explicitly show how the voltage across the inductor L varies with time. ...continues

Electric potential

Hi. Can someone please walk me through how to do the following problem? A typical 12-V car battery can deliver 7.5 x 10^5 C of charge. If the energy supplied by the battery could be converted entirely to kinetic energy, what speed would it give to a 1200-kg car? Thank you!

electric potential

Hi. Can someone please explain to me what exactly the electric potential is and how it differs from electric potential energy -- not with equations, but in prose. (Or at least, with both.) I can read the equation, but I don't really understand what electric potential IS. What is its significance? Thank you!

Electric Field

Does the electric field only move in the + ---> - direction? Or does it depend on the charge, so that the electric field moves in a + ---> - direction for a + charge and moves in the - ---> + direction for a - charge? In the latter case, if a + charge is moving toward the - plate of a capacitor, is its direction negative sinc ...continues

parallel plate capacitor

Hi. Can someone please check my answers to this question? A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery that maintains potential difference V between the plates. If the plates of the capacitor are pulled farther apart, do the following quantities increase, decrease, or remain the same? (a) Electric field between the pl ...continues
