A. Which of the four thermal processes describes the pressure-volume relationship at a constant temperature?

1 answer:

4 0

The thermal process that occurs when pressure and volume are variable, while the temperature remains constant is known as an isothermal process. Due to the change in temperature being zero, the internal energy of the system does not change. Isothermal processes can be carried out adiabatically or non-adiabatically. (An adiabatic process is where the heat energy moving through the boundary of a system is 0)

PLEASE HELP!

Anna [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

At constant pressure , work done by gas = P x ΔV where P is pressure and ΔV is change in volume

ΔV = 9.2 - 5.6 = 3.6 L

3.6 L = 3.6 x 10⁻³ m³

ΔV = 3.6 x 10⁻³ m³

P = 3.7 x 10³ Pa

So work done

= 3.7 x 10³ x 3.6 x 10⁻³ J

= 13.32 J .

( c ) is the answer , because work is done by the gas so it will be positive.

Which of these best describes how an appropriate star chart is selected to locate objects in the sky?

Sergio [31]

The layout of the stars in the sky is determined by the date, time of night, and your location (mainly latitude). So to pick the best star chart, you should go with the one that's closest to the present date and your location, then make allowance for what time it is. Everything in the sky moves about a degree every 4 minutes.

You measure the power delivered by a battery to be 4.26 W when it is connected in series with two equal resistors. How much powe

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

<em>The power delivered by the battery is 17.04 W</em>

Explanation:

Power through a circuit is given as

P = IV ....1

where P is the power

I is the current through the circuit

V is the voltage through the circuit

The voltage in a circuit is given as

V = IR ....2

Let us take the value of each resistor as equal to R

when connected in series, the total resistance will be

$R_{t}$ = R + R = 2R

If we assume constant voltage through the circuit, then from equation 2, the current in this case is

I = V/2R

If the resistors are connected in parallel, then the total resistance will be

$\frac{1}{R_{t} }$ = $\frac{1}{R}$ +

$R_{t}$ = R/2

The current in this case will be increased since the resistance is reduced

I = 2V/R

comparing the two situations, we can see that the current increased when connected in parallel to a ratio of

$\frac{2V}{R}$ ÷ $\frac{V}{2R}$ =

This means that the current increased 4 times

From equation 1, we can see that electrical power is proportional to the current at a constant voltage, therefore, the power will also increase by four times to

P = 4 x 4.26 = <em>17.04 W</em>
