Answer:

b)X: Work is done to the system and temperature increases.

Y: Work is done by the system and temperature decreases.

Explanation:

In the first situation, we see that the piston is lowered: this means that the volume of the gas below the piston is decreased (gas is compressed).

In this case, work is done TO the system, because it is the piston that is doing work on the gas, by compressing it. Moreover, since work is done on the system and no heat is lost (during an adiabatic compression, no heat is exchanged), for the first law of thermodynamics it means that the internal energy of the gas is increasing, and so the temperature of the gas is increasing as well.

In the last situation, everything is reversed. We see that the piston is raising: it means that the volume of the gas is increasing, and the gas is expanding, so it is doing work (work is done BY the system). Therefore, the internal energy of the gas is decreasing, and this means that its temperature is decreasing as well.

tatiyna

Answer: reliable

Explanation:

Reliable (marketing research) information is collected from questions (measurements) that are free from systematic or statistical error. An absence of systematic error implies that the respondents (i.e., the sampled people) who answer questions actually understand what the questions were asking.

You have been asked to make a roller coaster more exciting. The owners want the speed at the bottom of the first hill doubled. H
qaws [65]

Answer:

The height will be 4 times.

Explanation:

Given that,

The speed at the bottom of the hill doubled.

We need to calculate the height

Using conservation of energy

K.E_{t}+P.E_{t}=K.E_{b}+P.E_{b}

K.E_{b}=P.E_{t}

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh

\dfrac{1}{2}m(4v^2)=mgh

Therefore,

P.E = mg(4h)

Here, m and g are constant

Hence, The height will be 4 times.

The visible light portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is often subdivided into the colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blu
Ugo [173]

Light at the red end of the visible portion has the least energy, lowest frequency, same speed, and longer wavelength compared to the violet end.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The range in which the light exists is described as the electromagnetic spectrum. The light waves, radio waves, gamma rays,etc that exist in the world is not visible to human eyes. A kind of wave that modifies  magnetic and electric fields is light. Spectroscopy makes use of all the frequencies and the wavelengths of the electromagnetic radiation.

The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be seen by the human eyes is the visible spectrum. The light waves with the wavelengths of  380 to 740 nm can be sen by the human eyes. Light at the red end of the visible portion has the least energy, lowest frequency, same speed, and longer wavelength compared to the violet end.
