We can solve the problem by using the first law of thermodynamics:
\Delta U = Q-W
where
\Delta U is the variation of internal energy of the system
Q is the heat absorbed by the system
W is the work done by the system

In this problem, the heat absorbed by the system is Q=+44 J, and the increase in internal energy is \Delta U = +32 J. So we can rearrange the equation to calculate the work done:
W=Q-\Delta U=44 J-32 J=+12 J
and the work is positive, which means that it is done by the system on the surrounding.

A simple pendulum consists of a mass M attached to a string oflength L andnegligible mass. For this system, when undergoing smal
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

The frequency of the pendulum is independent of the mass on the end. (c)

This means that it doesn't matter if you hang a piece of spaghetti or a school bus from the bottom end.  If there is no air resistance, and no friction at the top end, and the string has no mass, then the time it takes the pendulum to swing from one side to the other <u><em>only</em></u> depends on the <u><em>length</em></u> of the string.

A jet plane is launched from a catapult on an aircraft carrier. In 2.0 s it reaches a speed of 42 m/s at the end of the catapult
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

time taken t=2\ s

Speed acquired in 2 sec v=42\ m/s

Here initial velocity is zero u=0

acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in a given time

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

a=\frac{42-0}{2}=21\ m/s^2

Distance travel in this time

s=ut+0.5at^2

where  

s=displacement

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

s=0+\0.5\times 21\times (2)^2

s=42\ m

so Jet Plane travels a distance of 42 m in 2 s

For a ∆x of 0.1mm, what is ∆px, the uncertainty in the transverse momentum of a photon passing through a slit (where uncertainty
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

0.53\times 10^{-30}kgms^{-1}

Explanation:

Uncertainty principle say that the position and momentum can not be measured simultaneously except one relation which is described below,

\Delta x\Delta p=\frac{h}{4\pi }

Given that the uncertainty in x is 0.1 mm.

Therefore,

\Delta p=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34} }{4\times 3.14\times 1\times 10^{-4}m }\\\Delta p=0.53\times 10^{-30}kgms^{-1}

Therefore, uncertainty in the transverse momentum of photon is 0.53\times 10^{-30}kgms^{-1}

If you are traveling around a curve at a constant speed will your velocity change?
marta [7]

Velocity means [ (speed) and (direction) ].

If you're traveling around a curve, then your direction is
always changing.  So your velocity is always changing,
even if your speed isn't.
