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>

A cube made Of an unknown material has a height of 9 symeters the mass of this cube is 3645 g. calculate the density of this cub
kherson [118]

Answer: 5 \frac{g}{cm^{3}}

Explanation:

The density \rho of a material is given by:

\rho=\frac{m}{V} (1)

Where:

m=3645 g is the mass of the cube

V is the volume of the cube

Now, the volume of a cube is equal to the length L of its edge to the power of 3:

V=L^{3} (2)

If we know L=9 cm, the volume of this cube is:

V=(9 cm)^{3}=729 cm^{3} (3)

Substituting (3) in (1):

\rho=\frac{3645 g}{729 cm^{3}} (4)

\rho=5 \frac{g}{cm^{3}} This is the density of the cube

26. A baseball traveling 38 m/s is caught by the catcher. The catcher takes 0.1 seconds to stop the ball. What is the accelerati
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The ball has an acceleration of -380 m/s², this means the ball slows down

An acceleration of -380 m/s² is the equivalent of 38.736 g's

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Velocity of the baseball at time t=0 = 38 m/s

At time t, the ball stops. This means v = 0

time before stops = 0.1s

Step 2: Calculate the acceleration

v= v0+at

with v= the velocity of the ball at time t = 0. v= 0

with v0 = the velocity of the ball at time t=0. v0 = 38 m/s

with a= the acceleration in m/s²

with t = time in seconds

0 = 38 + a*0.1

a = -380 m/s²

The ball has an acceleration of -380 m/s², this means the ball slows down

An acceleration of -380 m/s² is the equivalent of 38.736 g's
