Answer:

a. Work, ΔE is negative;

b. Work, ΔE is negative;

c. Work, ΔE is positive.

Explanation:

In the three cases, there is energy exchange in primarily work. The heat is the energy flow because of the difference in temperature. Of course, some heat may be lost in the cases by dissipation.

In the letter <em>a</em> the system is at an initial velocity different from 0, and then it stops. The energy that is represented here is the kinetic energy, which is the energy of the movement. Note that the system goes from a higher velocity to 0, so it is losing kinetic energy, or work, so ΔE = Efinal - Einitial < 0.

In letter <em>b</em>, the system is falling from a certain high to the floor, so its gravitational potential energy is change. That potential energy represents the energy that gravity does when an object shifts vertically. Because it goes from a high to 0, the energy is been lost, so ΔE = Efinal - Einitial < 0.

In letter <em>c</em>, the system is going higher and with higher velocity, so there is a greatness in the gravitational potential energy and the kinetic energy, both works, so ΔE = Efinal - Einitial > 0.

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Compounds formed from non-metals consist of molecules.

Explanation:

The atoms in a molecule are joined together by covalent bonds. These bonds form when atoms share pairs of electrons.

A beam balance is called a first class lever why?​
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

A beam balance is an example of a first class lever.

Explanation:

A beam balance is an example of a first class lever. In a first class lever, the fulcrum is between the effort (force) and the load. The effort (force) moves over a large distance to move the load a smaller distance.

Other examples of first class lever are pliers, scissors, a crow bar, a claw hammer, a see-saw and a weighing balance etc.
