The work done is 140.3 J

Explanation:

  • The work done is defined as the amount of force required or used to move an object over a particular distance. Hence, work done is the product of force in Newton and the distance in which the object moved in meters.
  • Here, in the question, it is given that there is a frictional force acting on the box by the floor and the distance it moves. Hence, to get the answer to multiply frictional force and the distance. So, will get the work done as 140.3 J.

Five moles of an ideal monatomic gas with an initial temperature of 121 ∘C expand and, in the process, absorb an amount of heat
liq [111]

Answer:

  T₂ ≈ 107.85∘C

Explanation:

The question didn't state if the volume is constant or not as such, we can apply the first law of thermodynamic

From the first law of thermodynamic,

ΔU =  Q - W

where ΔU = Internal Energy, Q = Quantity of heat absorbed, W = Amount of work done.

Q = 1200 J and W = 2020 J

∴ ΔU = 1200 -2020 = -820 J.

Using the ideal gas equation,

ΔU = 3/2nRΔT...................................equation 1

where n = number of moles, R = Molar gas constant, ΔT = Change in temperature = (T₂ - T₁).

Modifying equation 1,

ΔU = 3/2nR(T₂ -T₁)...............................equation 2.

making T₂ the subject of the relation in equation 2,

T₂ =  {2/3(ΔU)/nR}+T₁........................ equation 3

where T₁=121∘C, R= 8.314 J / mol, n=5 moles, ΔU=-820 J

Substituting these values into equation 3,

∴ T₂ ={ 2/3(-820)/(5×8.314)}+121

   T₂ = {2×(-820)/ (3×5×8.314)}+121  

   T₂={-1640/124.71}+ 121

   T₂ = {-13.151} + 121

 ∴T₂  = 121 - 13.151 = 107. 849∘C

    T₂ ≈ 107.85∘C

rodikova [14]

Answer:

Rhizobium.

Explanation:

The roots of most of these plants have nitrogen-fixing bacteria known as rhizobium. It helps to change nitrogen which is present in the air into the nitrates which are plants, and that is need to synthesize proteins.

Rhizobium bacteria occupy the root hairs which are present on the plants, they help the plant to grow and keep up with other plants. When the one plant dies, the fixed nitrogen which is present in it will release, and making it available for other plants, and this process helps to fertilize the soil in the environment.

KiRa [710]

Answer:

v \approx 7.371\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The swimmer can be modelled by the Principle of Energy Conservation. The speed is derived herein:

m_{swimmer}\cdot g \cdot h = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m_{swimmer}\cdot v^{2}

v = \sqrt{2\cdot g \cdot h}

v = \sqrt{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (2.77\,m)}

v \approx 7.371\,\frac{m}{s}
