During an office party, an office worker claims that a can of cold beer on his table warmed up to 20oC by picking up energy from

the surrounding air, which is 25oC. Is there any truth to his claim? Explain.

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

As we know that heat transfer take place from high temperature body to low temperature body.

In the given problem ,the temperature of the air is high as compare to the temperature  of can of bear ,so the heat transfer will take place from air to can of bear and at the last stage when temperature of can of bear will become to the temperature of air then heat transfer will be stop.Because temperature of the  both body will become at the same  and this stage is called thermal equilibrium.

So an office worker claim is correct.

Consider a resistor made of pure silicon with a cross-sectional area pf 0.5 μm2, and a length of 50 μm. What is the resistance o
lukranit [14]

Answer: 24 pA

Explanation:

As pure silicon is a semiconductor, the resistivity value is strongly dependent of temperature, as the main responsible for conductivity, the number of charge carriers (both electrons and holes) does.

Based on these considerations, we found that at room temperature, pure silicon resistivity can be approximated as 2.1. 10⁵  Ω  cm.

The resistance R of a given resistor, is expressed by the following formula:

R = ρ L / A

Replacing by the values for resistivity, L and A, we have

R = 2.1. 10⁵ Ω  cm. (10⁴ μm/cm). 50 μm/ 0.5 μm2

R = 2.1. 10¹¹ Ω

Assuming that we can apply Ohm´s Law, the current that would pass through this resistor for an applied voltage of 5 V, is as follows:

I = V/R = 5 V / 2.1.10¹¹ Ω = 2.38. 10⁻¹¹ A= 24 pA

What happens to battery when it produces current to the system
olasank [31]

Answer:

Electricity, as you probably already know, is the flow of electrons through a conductive path like a wire. This path is called a circuit. ... The chemical reactions in the battery causes a build up of electrons at the anode. This results in an electrical difference between the anode and the cathode

1. Examine the following circuit. Find RT, I3, R1, R2, R3, V1, V2 and V3. Show all of your work clearly below.
Mkey [24]

Explanation:

Ohm's law is used here. V = IR, and variations. The voltage across all elements is the same in this parallel circuit. (V1 =V2 =V3)

The total supply current is the sum of the currents in each of the branches. (It = I1 +I2 +I3)

Rt = (8 V)/(8 A) = 1 Ω . . . . supply voltage divided by supply current

I3 = 8A -3A -4A = 1 A . . . . supply current not flowing through other branches

R1 = (8 V)/(3 A) = 8/3 Ω

R2 = (8 V)/(4 A) = 2 Ω

R3 = (8 V)/(I3) = (8 V)/(1 A) = 8 Ω

V1 = V2 = V3 = 8 V

A container filled with a sample of an ideal gas at the pressure of 150 Kpa. The gas is compressed isothermally to one-third of
lyudmila [28]

Answer: c) 450 kPa

Explanation:

Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}     (At constant temperature and number of moles)

P_1V_1=P_2V_2  

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas  = 150 kPa

P_2 = final pressure of gas  = ?

V_1 = initial volume of gas   = v L

V_2 = final volume of gas  = \frac{v}{3}L

150\times v=P_2\times \frac{v}{3}  

P_2=450kPa

Therefore, the new pressure of the gas will be 450 kPa.
