Answer:

The correct answer is option a. 400J

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

To know if the work is positive or negative we have to know the following:

The work is positive when the gas performs (expansion)

The work is negative when done outside on the gas (compression)

In this case the work is done by the gas, so it is positive.

The correct answer is option a. 400J

List at least three pieces of evidence to support the idea that sound is a wave.
Schach [20]

Answer:

1. It undergoes reflection. 2. It undergoes refraction. 3. It undergoes diffraction.

Explanation:

1. It undergoes reflection. This is because it bounces off surfaces when incident on them.

2. It undergoes refraction. This is because it changes direction when it passes from one medium to another

3. It undergoes diffraction. This is because it spreads out when it passes through doors and windows similar in dimension to the dimensions of its wavelength

In an engine, an almost ideal gas is compressed adiabatically to half its volume. In doing so, 1850 J of work is done on the gas
Oliga [24]

Answer:

The value of change in internal l energy of the gas = 1850 J

Explanation:

Work done on the gas (W) =  - 1850 J

Negative sign is due to work done on the system.

From the first law  we know that Q = Δ U + W ------------- (1)

Where Q = Heat transfer to the gas

Δ U = Change in internal energy of the gas

W = work done on the gas

Since it is adiabatic compression of the gas so heat transfer to the gas is zero.

⇒ Q = 0

So from equation (1)

⇒ Δ U = - W ----------------- (2)

⇒ W = - 1850 J (Given)

⇒ Δ U = - (- 1850)

⇒ Δ U = + 1850 J

This is the value of change in internal energy of the gas.

Many battery-powered devices come with cords that allow them to be
lara [203]

Answer:

The change that has to take place inside the power cord in order for the device to function properly include;

The changing of the alternating current (AC) from the electrical outlet to the direct current having a specific voltage and current value with which the device can be powered

Explanation:

A battery powered device makes use of direct current (DC) electric power from a battery, while the power normally given out at an electrical outlet comes as an alternating current (AC) electric power source.

The power cord for battery-powered device, also known as an AC/DC adapter, that allows them to be plugged into electrical outlets converts the AC electric current it obtains from the electrical outlets to DC electrical current of the appropriate voltage and amperage that the device can make use of for electric power to function and for charging the battery which is the power source for the device

Therefore, the change that has to take place in the power cord is the conversion of the electric outlet alternating current (AC) voltage and amperage values, into direct current (DC) of the required voltage and current for the device
