The energy transfer in terms of work has the equation:

W = mΔ(PV)

To be consistent with units, let's convert them first as follows:

P₁ = 80 lbf/in² * (1 ft/12 in)² = 5/9 lbf/ft²
P₂ = 20 lbf/in² * (1 ft/12 in)² = 5/36 lbf/ft²
V₁ = 4 ft³/lbm
V₂ = 11 ft³/lbm

W = m(P₂V₂ - P₁V₁)
W = (14.5 lbm)[(5/36 lbf/ft²)(4 ft³/lbm) - (5/9 lbf/ft²)(11 lbm/ft³)]
W = -80.556 ft·lbf

In 1 Btu, there is 779 ft·lbf. Thus, work in Btu is:
W = -80.556 ft·lbf(1 Btu/779 ft·lbf)
<em>W = -0.1034 BTU</em>

SCORPION-xisa [38]
Density = (mass) / (volume)
4,000 kg/m³ = (mass) / (0.09 m³)
(4,000 kg/m³) x (0.09 m³) = mass
mass = 360 kg 
force of gravity = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) = (360 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = (360 x 9.8)  kg-m<span>/s² </span><span>=   </span>3,528 newtons .

(a) When the terminals of a 100-V battery are connected to two parallel plates 1 cm apart, what is the electrical field in the r
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The electrical field in the region between the plates is 10,000 V/m.

Explanation:

Given;

potential difference between the two parallel plates, V = 100 V

distance between the two parallel plates, d = 1 cm = 0.01 m

The electrical field in the region between the plates is given as;

E = V / d

where;

E is the electrical field in the region between the plates

E = (100) / (0.01)

E = 10,000 V/m

Therefore, the electrical field in the region between the plates is 10,000 V/m.
