A microwave oven works by generating electromagnetic radiation that can be absorbed by water molecules causing them to rotate faster. The friction of the rotating water molecules is lost to their surroundings, thus heating up the food you place in the microwave oven. A microwave oscillator (thing that makes microwaves) emits radiation at a wavelength of 12.24 cm. What is the minimum time it will take a 800 Watt (i.e. 800 Js4) microwave oven emitting 12.24 cm wavelength photons to heat 100 g of water from 20° to 50°C? The heat capacity of water is 4.18 Jg deg1?

smoke particles in air typically have masses of the order of 10^-16 kg. The rapid, irregular motions of these particles caused by collisions with air molecules can be observed with a microscope. Assume a particular type of smoke particle has a mass of 3.00 x10^-16 kg and is in a room with a temperature of 300 K. a) if instead you were considering a hydrogen gas molecule (m= 3.34x10^-26 kg) at 300 K, would the average translational kinetic energy be larger than, smaller than or equal to that of the smoke particle? b) would the rms speed of the hydrogen atom be larger than, smaller than, or equal to that of the smoke particle?
