We are given that the system “releases” heat of 2,500 J,
and that it “does work on the surroundings” by 7,655 J.
The highlighted words releases and does work on the surroundings
all refers to that it is the system itself which expends energy to do those
things. Therefore the action of releasing heat and doing work has both magnitudes
of negative value. Therefore:
heat released = - 2, 500 J
work done = - 7, 655 J
Which means that the total internal energy change of the
system is:
change in internal energy = heat released + work
<span>change in internal energy = - 2, 500 J + - 7, 655 J</span>
<span>change in internal energy = -10,155 J</span>
Answer:
From the relation above we can conclude that the as the distance between the two plate increases the electric field strength decreases
Explanation:
I cannot find any attached photo, but we can proceed anyways theoretically.
The electric field strength (E) at any point in an electric field is the force experienced by a unit positive charge (Q) at that point
i.e

But the force F

But the electric field intensity due to a point charge Q at a distance r meters away is given by

<em>From the relation above we can conclude that the as the distance between the two plate increases the electric field strength decreases</em>
The pressure generated by the piston at the input cylinder must be:
p = F / A = 250 lb-f / 30 in^2
The pressure generated by the piston at the output cylinders is p = F / A = 775 lb-f / A.
Pascal principle rules that both pressures are equal, so:
250 lb-f / 30 in^2 = 775 lb-f / A => A = 775 lb-f * 30 in^2 / 250 lb-f = 93 in^2
Gvien that each output cylinder are 30in^2 you need 93 / 30 = 3.1 cylinders.
Which means that at least you need 4 cylinders to generate a force at least of 775 lb-f.
Answer: 4
