(a) The work done by the gas during the isothermal expansion is -25.6 J.

(b) The heat added to the gas during this process is 25.6 J.

<h3>Net work done by the ideal gas against the external pressure</h3>

The net work done by the ideal gas in the isothermal expansion is calculated as follows;

W(net) = ΔP x ΔV

W(net) = ( 1 kPa - 5 kPa) x (8L - 1.6 L)

W(net) = -25.6 kPa.L

W(net) = -25.6 J

<h3>Head added to the gas</h3>

The heat added to the gas is calculated as follows;

W = -Q

-25.6 J = -Q

Q = 25.6 J

A worker pushes horizontally on a large crate with a force of 265.0 N and the crate moved 4.3 m. How much work was done?
trapecia [35]

Answer:

<h2>1139.5 J</h2>

Explanation:

The work done by an object can be found by using the formula

workdone = force × distance

From the question we have

work done = 265 × 4.3 = 1139.5

We have the final answer as

<h3>1139.5 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

Why is the earth sphered but we cant fall off
anygoal [31]

Which explains upwelling in the oceans?
Leokris [45]

Winds blowing across the ocean surface push water away. Water then rises up from beneath the surface to replace the water that was pushed away. This process is known as “upwelling.”

Upwelling occurs in the open ocean and along coastlines. The reverse process, called “downwelling,” also occurs when wind causes surface water to build up along a coastline and the surface water eventually sinks toward the bottom.

Water that rises to the surface as a result of upwelling is typically colder and is rich in nutrients. These nutrients “fertilize” surface waters, meaning that these surface waters often have high biological productivity.  Therefore, good fishing grounds typically are found where upwelling is common.

A train goes up a hill with a 15º incline. If the train has constant speed of 22 m/s, what are the vertical and horizontal compo
Kobotan [32]
Any two-dimensional vector in cartesian (x,y) coordinates can be broken down into individual horizontal and vertical components using trigonometry. If a train goes up a hill with 15 degree incline at a speed of 22 m/s, the horizontal component is 22cos(15)=21.3 m/s and the vertical component is 22sin(15)=5.5 m/s.
