Answer:

a. the amount of work done on a system is dependent of pathway

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics states that the change in internal energy of a system equals the net heat transfer into the system minus the net work done by the system.

ΔU = Q - W

Where;

Q, the net heat transfer into the system depends on the pathway

W, the net work done by the system also depends on the pathway

But, ΔU, the change in internal energy is independent of pathway

Therefore, the correct option is "A"

a. the amount of work done on a system is dependent of pathway

How would gravity cause planets to move if they did not have inertia?
daser333 [38]
I’d think the answer would be C. i’m just kinda guessing but my thought process is this (as simply as i can put it because physics is confusing):

so for example say you throw a ball across a flat surface. inertia is what keeps the ball rolling straight in a line, so unless you were to maybe put your hand in front of the ball or something, it would just go straight forever.

this is what happens with the planets. they go in a straight line, but since there’s gravity, the planets are also being pulled towards the sun. so gravity and inertia are why the planets orbit in the circle pattern they do. so when we remove inertia, we’re removing the state in which the planets keep going straight while being pulled towards a center point (the sun). this causes gravity to be the only factor in the planets orbiting. so that being said, the planets would just be pulled towards the sun. :)

the force between your feet and the floor is greater while standing on your tiptoes than while standing flat on your feet
Elodia [21]
Yes thats correct....becuase all of your weight is concentrated on a small area compared to the larger surface area of your feet!
is that what your question was?

If there is no oxygen in outer space, and, at the same time, oxygen must be present for fire, where does the sun come from?​
victus00 [196]

The sun is a huge ball of gas held together by gravity.

It does not burn the way wood does, due to oxygen, but it gets energy by a process called nuclear fusion, where Hydrogen is converted to Helium.

The sun will cease to "burn" when it runs out of Hydrogen, but that has a long way to go.
