Answer:

A. Add 30 J by heating the system and have the system do 20 J of work.

Explanation:

The equation for internal energy is $\Delta U=Q+W$ , where here Q is the heat added to the system (negative if removed from the system) and W is the work done on the system (negative if done by the system). From this is clear that if we add 30J of heat to the system and have it do 20J of work we will have $\Delta U=Q+W=(30J)+(-20J)=10J$ .

A kayaker moves 22 meters northward, then 18 meters southward , and finally 24 meters northward what is the distance and magnitu

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Distance = 64 metres

Displacement = 28 metres

Direction = northward

Explanation:

Given that a kayaker moves 22 meters northward, then 18 meters southward , and finally 24 meters northward

Distance covered is only about the magnitude of the length covered.

Distance = 22 + 18 + 24 = 64 metres

The direction will be considered when calculating the displacement

Let northward be positive and southward be negative

Displacement = 22 - 18 + 24 = 28 metres

Since the displacement is positive, the direction of the motion is northward.

5. A single slit illuminated with a 500 nm light gives a diffraction pattern on a far screen. The 5th minimum occurs at 7.00° aw

abruzzese [7]

For a single slit illuminated with a 500 nm light gives a diffraction pattern on a far screen,the angle is mathematically given as

theta=25.3

Option A is correct

<h3> What angle does the 18th minimum occur?</h3>

Generally, the equation for the the angle is mathematically given as

$\theta=n(\lambda/d)$

Therefore

$\theta 1/ \theta 2=n1(\lambda/d)/ n2(\lambda/d)$

In conclusion

theta/7=16/5

theta=10*7/5

theta=25.3

The leaves of a tree lose water to the atmosphere via the process of transpiration. A particular tree loses water at the rate of

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The speed of the sap flowing in the vessel is 1.90 mm/s

Explanation:

Given:

The rate of water loss, Q = 3 × 10 ⁻⁸ m³/s

Number of vessels contained, n = 2000

Diameter of the vessel, D = 100 Mu m

thus, the radius of the vessel, r = 50 × 10⁻⁶ m

Now, the rate of flow is given as:

Q = AV .............(1)

where, A is the area of the cross-section

V is the velocity

Total area, A = n × (πr²)

substituting the values in the equation (1), we get

3 × 10 ⁻⁸ m³/s = [2000 × (π × (50 × 10⁻⁶)²)] × V

V = 1.909 × 10⁻³ m/s or 1.90 mm/s

Hence, the speed of the sap flowing in the vessel is 1.90 mm/s

200 kW of solar radiation is shining on a 300 m^2 parking lot. What is the insulation on the parking lot?

ale4655 [162]

That's "insolation" ... not "insulation".

'Insolation' is simply the intensity of solar radiation over some area.

If 200 kW of radiation is shining on 300 m² of area, then the insolation is

(200 kW) / (300 m²) = (666 and 2/3) watt/m² .

Note that this is the intensity of the incident radiation. It doesn't say anything
about how much soaks in or how much bounces off.

Wait !
I just looked back at the choices, and realized that I didn't answer the question
at all. I have no idea what "1 sun" means. Forgive me. I have stolen your
points, and I am filled with remorse.

Wait again !
I found it, through literally several seconds of online research.

1 sun = 1 kW/m².

So 2/3 of a kW per m² = 2/3 of 1 sun

That's between 0.5 sun and 1.0 sun.

I feel better now, and plus, I learned something.
