When a system does work, what happens to its internal energy

Physics
2 answers:
tester [92]3 years ago

The first law, which deals with changes in the internal energy, thus becomes 0 = Q - W, so Q = W.

If the system does work, the energy comes from heat flowing into the system from the reservoir; if work is done on the system, heat flows out of the system to the reservoir

Answer:

Internal energy decreases

Explanation:

According to first law of thermodynamics heat can neither be created nor destroyed , but it changes from one form to another form.

Mathematical representation :

U=Q-w

Where U=Internal energy of system

w=Work done

Q=Heat gain or removed

When system does work then it take positive .When system does work then Q is positive .

Hence, the internal energy will decrease .

Why is Jupiter so much larger than Earth? Check all that apply
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Moreover, Boss says that even if Jupiter is proven to have a core, the planet still could have formed that core through disk instability. Enough dust could have collected and cemented together in the dense gas to form a core many times larger than the size of the Earth.

Explanation:

The same is true of most other objects in the solar system — except Jupiter. The gas giant is so big that it pulls the center of mass between it and the sun, also known as the barycenter, some 1.07 solar radii from the star's center — which is about 30,000 miles above the sun's surface.

Consider a container of oxygen gas at a temperature of 23°C that is 1.00 m tall. Compare the gravitational potential energy of a
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Yes, it is reasonable to neglect it.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, a single molecule of oxygen weights 32 g (diatomic oxygen) thus, the mass of kilograms is (consider Avogadro's number):

m=1molec*\frac{1mol}{6.022x10^{23}molec} *\frac{32g}{1mol}*\frac{1kg}{1000g}=5.31x10^{-26}kg

After that, we compute the potential energy 1.00 m above the reference point:

U=mhg=5.31x10^{-26}kg*1.00m*9.8\frac{m}{s^2}=5.2x10^{-25}J

Then, we compute the average kinetic energy at the specified temperature:

K=\frac{3}{2}\frac{R}{Na}T

Whereas N_A stands for the Avogadro's number for which we have:

K=\frac{3}{2} \frac{8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}}{6.022x10^{23}/mol}*(23+273)K\\ \\K=6.13x10^{-21}J

In such a way, since the average kinetic energy energy is about 12000 times higher than the potential energy, it turns out reasonable to neglect the potential energy.

Regards.

Hans Selye’s general adaptation syndrome theory proposes that adaptation to stress occurs in how many stages?
ANTONII [103]

<u>Answer:</u>

Adaption to stress occurs in three stages: alarm, fight or flight, exhaustion.

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to the general adaptation syndrome theory proposed by Hans Selye, the adaption to stress occurs in three stages which are:

1. alarm

2. fight or flight

3. exhaustion

This is a process which comprises of three stages that describes the physiological changes which a body undergoes when in stress (an emotional, mental and physical human response to a specific stimulus).
