Sentences with phrase «reached an equilibrium state»

It may in fact still be settling, that is, not enough time has passed since Saturn's formation to reach an equilibrium state where the heavier matter is underneath the lighter matter.

This diagram shows that, once the hot surface temperature was established who knows how long ago, it reached an thermal equilibrium state with a large amount of energy transfer between the surface and the lower levels of the atmosphere, and the planet as a whole reached an equilibrium state with the Sun.

Not exact matches

A permanent state has been reached in which no macroscopically observable events occur, a state which the physicist speaks of as thermodynamical equilibrium or «maximum entropy.»

An object reaches the stationary levitated state when all the forces acting on it are in equilibrium.

Ice sheet retreat continues until a new equilibrium temperature state is reached, one determined largely by the end - point of atmospheric CO2.

At the center of the Sun, where its density reaches up to 150,000 kg / m3 (150 times the density of water on Earth), thermonuclear reactions (nuclear fusion) convert hydrogen into helium, releasing the energy that keeps the Sun in a state of equilibrium.

As computer ownership and Internet usage reaches a saturation point throughout the world, the personals industry will reach a state of equilibrium and growth will maintain at a regular annual rate.

Ice sheet retreat continues until a new equilibrium temperature state is reached, one determined largely by the end - point of atmospheric CO2.

Once the system reaches a state of dynamic equilibrium the energy lost by the ground equals the energy reaching the ground.

And we will calculate the equilibrium condition — which is when steady - state is reached.

The fact that air in fact conducts heat just like the silver, and that if you wait for equilibrium — whether or not it actually takes a very long time on a human scale to get there — the equilibrium reached will be isothermal or violate the second law, in particular by manifestly not being the maximum entropy state of the system.

The container is left on the table for a very long time, so that its contents reach thermal equilibrium from whatever initial state they might have had.

In fact, a gas with a DALR is a fairly special case of the many «equilibria» one can reach in the specific limit of hydrodynamic relaxation (only) to a state of hydrostatic balance neglecting the much slower thermal relaxation that eventually makes the gas isothermal.

Where he directly stated that an isolated atmosphere in a gravitational field reaches isothermal equilibrium, as first demonstrated by Gibbs some 120 years ago?

But once the system reaches isoentropic equilibrium at the DALR, heat will flow via real conduction, not adiabatic movement of parcels, and the system will, I believe, relax to isothermal equilibrium that — as I've clearly shown — is an entirely valid thermodynamic state that is dynamically stable.

Slow enough that we can ignore it at least to the extent that we can ask what state we are likely to find a gas initially prepared in an arbitrary initial condition — after waiting just long enough for hydrostatic equilibrium to be established but not long enough for thermal equilibrium (which is isothermal and strict maximum entropy) to be reached via internal conduction.

Since then we have reached a state of equilibrium, until now.

No, the ocean thermocline never reaches a state of thermodynamic equilibrium because there is a new supply of thermal energy each day and that energy must be diffused downwards and then towards the poles, so there is continual energy movement and the temperature gradient is always there in the thermocline, so how could it possibly be thermodynamic equilibrium?.

* Here Anthony Watts acknowledges the fact that AGW has nothing to do with faith, but is true and tried science that should be the guideline for future, as physics and engineering both point to the fact that once a system that tries to reach an equilibrium according to QM (approximated by Newtonian mechanics) is disturbed enough it will change towards a new equilibrium state with potentially catastrophic and chaotic alterations in the system, which will present problems for the subsystems functioning within this system, in the AGW case this could be the human cultural system, though Watts doesn't mention it in the lead.

That may also indicate that since the Antarctic appears to have reached some relative equilibrium state around 1995, that there is a shift in one or more internal oscillations.

There is currently a global energy imbalance, and reaching a new equilibrium state will take over a century.

The effects of 2xCO2 can not be measured, as you appear to state *, since we can't know that the equilibrium has been reached because we don't and will never fully understand the earth system (which certainly isn't described fully by the model FG used).

By dividing the total temperature change (as indicated by the best - fit linear trend) by the observed rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide content, and then applying that relationship to a doubling of the carbon dioxide content, Loehle arrives at an estimate of the earth's transient climate sensitivity — transient, in the sense that at the time of CO2 doubling, the earth has yet to reach a state of equilibrium and some warming is still to come.

However, planets will eventually reach new equilibrium states where the heat - loss balances the energy input.

Once it finally reaches a state of equilibrium, it should stop «sinking» heat and the surface temps should resemble warming that occurs on land.

Remaining steady and calm during these moments is the key to supporting children through them; staying present with them until the emotional wave breaks and they reach a state of equilibrium allows them to feel safe, loved and acceptance when they are feeling out of control.
