The answer is <em>Compressional Stress
</em>

In geology, stress<span> is the force per unit area that is placed on a rock. ... This is called confining </span>stress<span>. Compression squeezes rocks together, </span>causing<span> rocks to fold or fracture (break). Compression is the most common </span>stress<span> at </span>convergent plate boundaries<span>.

I hope this helped!! Have a great day :D</span>

At what distance from a long, straight wire carrying a current of 8.7 A is the magnetic field due to the wire equal to the stren
deff fn [24]

Answer:

r= 3.2 cm

Explanation:

Given that

I= 8.7 A

B= 5.4 x 10⁻⁵ T

μo=1.25664 x 10⁻⁶

We know that magnetic filed in wire at a distance r given as

B=\dfrac{\mu_oI}{2\pi r}

r=\dfrac{\mu_oI}{2\pi B}

By putting the values

r=\dfrac{1.25664\times 10^{-6}\times 8.7}{2\times \pi \times 5.4\times 10^{-5}}\ m

r=0.032 m

r= 3.2 cm

A piston absorbs 25 J of heat from its surroundings while expanding from
Ivahew [28]
  • The work done is -30 J
  • The heat is 25 J

<h3>What is the heat and the work?</h3>

We know that the work done by a gas could be positive or negative same as the heat. If the work done is positive then work is done on the system.

The work done is obtained from;

W = PΔV

W =  1.0 x 105 Pa(0.0006 m³ - 0.0003 m³)

W = 30 J

Given that the gas absorbs heat from the surroundings and the gas is expanding.

  • The work done is -30 J
  • The heat is 25 J
