Two identical samples of a monatomic gas are initially at pressure P and occupy volume V. You perform two experiments which will both lead to the gas samples being compressed to final volumes one-third as large as their initial volumes.
 
  In one of the experiments you make the gas undergo an isothermal compression. In the second you make the gas undergo an adiabatic compression. It is correct to say that: A) The isothermal compression leads to a higher final pressure than the adiabatic compression and the gas exchanges heat with its surroundings.
  B) The adiabatic compression leads to a higher final pressure than the isothermal compression and the gas does not exchange heat with its surroundings.
  C) The isothermal compression leads to a lower final pressure than the isothermal compression and the gas does not exchange heat with its surroundings.
  D) The adiabatic compression leads to a lower final pressure than the isothermal compression and the gas exchanges heat with its surroundings.
  E) It is impossible to predict on the basis of this data.

Question 2

The total impedance of an RC circuit with a resistance of 200  is 1060 . If the frequency of the applied voltage is 20.0 Hz, what is the value of the capacitance in this circuit?
 
  A) 6.64 F
  B) 7.64 F
  C) 8.64 F
  D) 9.64 F
  E) 200 F

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).
