Answer:

Refineries process oil, found in the Earth, and turn it into gasoline to be used by cars.

Explanation:

The first option describes Geothermal energy. Geothermal energy uses the heat of the Earth's crust as a heat source. It is a renewable resource.

Refineries use the oil extracted from the Earth to produce gasoline. This is a non renewable resource as the oil found in the Earth is of finite quantity and is being depleted faster than it is being replenished.

Solar panels use the sunlight to produce electricity. Sunlight is a renewable resource.

Windmill uses the power of moving air to generate electricity. Wind is a renewable resource.

A gas is enclosed in a cylinder fitted with a light frictionless piston and maintained at atmospheric pressure. When 3300 kcal o
Tema [17]

Answer

given,

heat added to the gas,Q = 3300 kcal

initial volume, V₁ = 13.7 m³

final volume, V₂ = 19.7 m³

atmospheric pressure, P = 1.013 x 10⁵ Pa

a) Work done by the gas

    W = P Δ V

    W = 1.013 x 10⁵ x (19.7 - 13.7)

    W = 6.029 x 10⁵ J

b) internal energy of the gas = ?

  now,

 change in internal energy

  Δ U = Q - W

    Q = 3300 x 10³ cal

    Q = 3300 x 10³ x 4.186 J

    Q = 1.38 x 10⁷ J

now,

  Δ U = 1.38 x 10⁷  - 6.029 x 10⁵

  Δ U = 1.32 x 10⁷ J
