Answer: B. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is Wx/m.

Explanation:

Weight is a force, and as we know by the second Newton's law:

F = m*a

Force equals mass times acceleration.

Then if the weight is:

Wx, and the mass is m, we have the equation:

Wx = m*a

Where in this case, a is the gravitational field strength.

Then, isolating a in that equation we get:

Wx/m = a

Then the correct option is:

B. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is Wx/m.

A system releases 255 cal of heat to the surroundings while delivering 428 cal of work. what is the change in internal energy of
vichka [17]

Answer:-683 cal

Explanation:

Given

Heat released by system Q=-255 cal

as heat released is taken as negative and vice-versa

Work done by system W=428 cal

From First law of thermodynamics

Q=\Delta +W , where \Delta U=change in internal Energy

\Delta U=-255-428=-683

The diagram shows the movement of air as a result of convection currents. At which point is the air at its highest density?
stellarik [79]

When you bring two objects of different temperature together, energy will always be transferred from the hotter to the cooler object.  The objects will exchange thermal energy, until thermal equilibrium is reached, i.e. until their temperatures are equal.  We say that heat flows from the hotter to the cooler object.  Heat is energy on the move.  

Units of heat are units of energy.  The SI unit of energy is Joule.  Other often encountered units of energy are 1 Cal = 1 kcal = 4186 J, 1 cal = 4.186 J, 1 Btu = 1054 J.

Without an external agent doing work, heat will always flow from a hotter to a cooler object.  Two objects of different temperature always interact.  There are three different ways for heat to flow from one object to another.  They are conduction, convection, and radiation.
