"The work done on an ideal gas system in an isothermal process is -400 J. What is the change in internal (thermal) energy of the

gas?"
Physics
1 answer:
Archy [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

zero

Explanation:

Work done = - 400 J

In an isothermal process, the temperature remains constant. So, according to the first law of thermodynamics

dQ = dU + dW

As the temperature remains constant and the change in internal energy is the function of change in temperature, here change is temperature is zero so the change in internal energy is also zero.

Each level in a food chain contains less energy than the one below it because some energy is
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Because some of the energy is dissipated in the metabolic activities such as digestion and maintaining the warmth of the body of the organism at each level.

Explanation:

Food chain is the sequential chain of energy transfer from one onrgaanism at a trophic level to another organism at the other trophic level. Autotrophs receive the energy from the sun and prepare their own food. Autotrophs then get consumed by the primary heterotrophs and further primary heterotrophs by the secondary heterotrophs. When the secondary heterotrophs die they are then consumed by the scavangers and decayed by the micro-organisms in to the soil which finally help the autotrophs (plants) in their growth.

At each trophic level of the food chain the energy does not gets completely transferred because the organisms also spend some energy in search of the food and the processing of food is also an energy consuming process.

The energy is also used in combating the climatic conditions and predators for the survival.
