In an adiabatic process:

Physics
1 answer:
Ugo [173]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

c. the work done by the environment on the system equals the changein internal energy.

Explanation:

Adiabatic process:

When the boundary of a system is perfectly insulated, it means that the energy can not flow from the system and into the system ,these system is known as adiabatic system.

When the energy transfer in the system is zero ,then these type of process is known as adiabatic process.

From the first law of thermodynamics

Q= ΔU + W

Q=Heat transfer

ΔU=Change in internal energy

W=Work transfer

In adiabatic process , Q= 0

Therefore

0=ΔU +W

W=- ΔU

Negative sign indicates that ,the work done by the environment.

Therefore the correct option will be (c).

A spherical surface completely surrounds a collection of charges. Find the electric flux (with its sign) through the surface if
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

(a) 6.8 x 10^5 Nm^2/C

(b) 1.47 x 10^5 Nm^2/C

(c) 5.3 x 10^5 Nm^2/C

Explanation:

According to the Gauss's theorem

Electric flux = Charge enclosed / ∈0

(a) Charge enclosed = 6 x 10^-6 C

So, Electric flux = (6 x 10^-6) / (8.854 x 10^-12) = 6.8 x 10^5 Nm^2/C

(b) Charge enclosed = -1.3 x 10^-6 C

So, Electric flux = (1.3 x 10^-6) / (8.854 x 10^-12) = 1.47 x 10^5 Nm^2/C

(c) Charge enclosed = 6 x 10^-6 + (-1.3 x 10^-6) = 4.7 x 10^-6 C

So, Electric flux = (4.7 x 10^-6) / (8.854 x 10^-12) = 5.3 x 10^5 Nm^2/C

A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a tall cliff. Neglecting air drag, what vertical distance will the ball have falle
adell [148]

The relevant equation to use here is:

y = v0 t + 0.5 g t^2

where y is the vertical distance, v0 is initial velocity = 0, t is time, g = 9.8 m/s^2

 

y = 0 + 0.5 * 9.8 * 3^2

<span>y = 44.1 meters</span>
