Answer: The formula used to solve the problems related to first law of thermodynamics is \Delta U=Q+W

Explanation:

First law of thermodynamics states that the total energy of the system remains conserved. Energy can neither be destroyed, nor be created but it can only be transformed into one form to another.

Its implication is any change in the internal energy will be either due to heat energy or work energy.

Mathematically,

\Delta U=Q+W

where, Q = heat energy

W = work energy

\Delta U = Change in internal energy

Sign convention for these energies:

For Q: Heat absorbed will be positive and heat released will be negative.

For W: Work done by the system is negative and work done on the system is positive.

For \Delta U: When negative, internal energy is decreasing and when positive, internal energy is increasing.

Hence, the formula used to solve the problems related to first law of thermodynamics is \Delta U=Q+W

<span>Q = ΔU + W
Q is the exchanged heat.
ΔU is the total change in the internal energy of a system.
W  is the work done by or on the system.
The statement of the First Law is Thermodynamics is: “energy can be converted from one form to another with the interaction of heat, work and internal energy, but it cannot be created nor destroyed, under any circumstances”.</span>

Calculate the force of gravity on a 1–kilogram box located at a point 1.3 × 107 meters from the center of Earth if the force on
Sati [7]

Since you already gave us the weight of the 2.5-kg box,
we don't even need to know what the distance is, just
as long as it doesn't change.

Look at the formula for the gravitational force:

                           F = G  m₁ m₂ / R² .

If 'G', 'm₁' (mass of the Earth), and 'R' (distance from the Earth's center)
don't change, then the Force is proportional to  m₂ ... mass of the box,
and you can write a simple proportion:

                       (6.1 N) / (2.5 kg)  =  (F) / (1 kg)

Cross-multiply:  (6.1 N) (1 kg)  =  (F) (2.5 kg)

Divide each side by (2.5 kg):  F = (6.1N) x (1 kg) / (2.5 kg)  =  2.44 N .
