What really is a Pascal and a Joule? - Physics Forums
Jan 21, 2015 · The same with Joule's. Don't think of it as Kg*m^2/s^2, think about it as a force being applied over a distance. Joule is energy, and an external force does work on an object by an amount of ##W=F\cdot ds## where F is the force and ds is a small chunk of the path that it travels (a line is 1d).
What is a Joule Second? - Explained Easily! - Physics Forums
Jul 9, 2010 · A joule in mechanical work is 1 N of force applied on an object to move it a distance of 1 m. So a joule persecond is doing the above action in one second. Btw, a "joule per second" and a "joule second" are not the same thing. Jule per second is dividing by seconds, joule second would be multiplying by seconds.
Torque & Joules: Fact or Fiction? - Physics Forums
Apr 22, 2014 · Wikipedia says that the unit of magnetic dipole moments is calculated by Joule/B that means that the torque is measured by joules I really doubt that, it seems non sense. Torque has units of Force*distance.
What is the Definition of 1 Joule and How Does it Relate to Lifting ...
May 30, 2013 · Two equivalent definitions of the "Joule" are "the work done by a 1 Newton force in moving an object 1 meter" and "the kinetic energy of a 1 kg object moving at 1 meter per second". Since a Newton is defined as "the force necessary to accelerate a 1 kg object at 1 meter per second per second", it has basic units of kg m/s 2 and so, multiplying ...
Adiabatic cooling vs. Joule-Thomson effect - Physics Forums
Oct 2, 2006 · For helium however, Joule-Thomson inversion temperature is far below room temperature, therefore, when deflated, a helium-filled tire will warm up instead. A's rebuttal : B is wrong. Free expansion (as in Joule expansion experiment) assumes expanding against vacuum , and only predicts that temperature of (ideal) gas will be the same after the ...
How to convert cm^-1 into erg or joules - Physics Forums
Feb 5, 2010 · You cant, because cm^(-1) is not a unit of energy. The base units of energy are m l t^(-2). For example Ergs are grams cm seconds^(-2) and Joules are kg m seconds^(-2).
Why 1 liter * atm = 101.33 joules - Physics Forums
Dec 14, 2016 · Are you asking why it comes out equal to 101.33 Joules, or why a pressure (atm) time a volume (liter) gives an energy (joules)?
Why is Liter*atm equivalent to Joules? - Physics Forums
Feb 17, 2015 · I've taken 1.5 semesters of physics, but I cannot figure this out. The reason I posted this in Chemistry is because I realized that the R constant can be written as 8.314 J/(mol*K) or as .0821 L*atm/(mol*K). So why is the Joule just a …
Can Joules Be Converted to Newtons in Energy Calculations?
Dec 31, 2010 · I'm having trouble with this one: How do I convert joules to Newtons? Say I have a source of energy E that is capable of supplying 10 joules -- per second -- that I wish to use to accelerate a body. Would the energy supply then look something like this(?): E/s = 10 * …
How Do You Convert Energy from J/kg to kJ/mol? - Physics Forums
Aug 18, 2011 · How come? rl.baht wrote: mol = mass / molecular weight. we want to know the connection between kg and mol. So assume you have 1kg material.
