Answer:

Workdone=horizontal component Of The force x displacement

Explanation:

If the force is not parallel to the displacement,you have to find the horizontal component Of The force using the given angle, after that you multiply the horizontal component Of The force by the displacement then you get work done

If ?h°rxn and ?s°rxn are both negative values, what drives the spontaneous reaction and in what direction at standard conditions

irakobra [83]

The release of free energy drives the spontaneous reaction.

Spontaneity can be <span>determined using the change in </span>Gibbs free energy (the thermodynamic potencial):

delta G=delta H – T*delta S

where delta H is the enthalpy and delta S is the entropy.

The direction (the sign) of delta G depends of the changes of enthalpy and entropy. If delta G is negative then the process is spontaneous.

In our case, both delta H and delta S are negative values, the process as said is spontaneous which means that it may proceed in the forward direction.

A cylinder which is in a horizontal position contains an unknown noble gas at 4.63 × 104 Pa and is sealed with a massless piston

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The change in internal energy of the system is -17746.78 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure $P=4.63\times10^{4}\ Pa$

Remove heat $\Delta U= -1.95\times10^{4}\ J$

Radius = 0.272 m

Distance d = 0.163 m

We need to calculate the internal energy

Using thermodynamics first equation

$dU=Q-W$ ...(I)

Where, dU = internal energy

Q = heat

W = work done

Put the value of W in equation (I)

$dU=Q-PdV$

Where, W = PdV

Put the value in the equation

$dU=-1.95\times10^{4}-(4.63\times10^{4}\times3.14\times(0.272)^2\times(-0.163))$

$dU=-17746.78\ J$

Hence, The change in internal energy of the system is -17746.78 J

What are the conditions of the thermonuclear fusion reaction in the sun?

Verizon [17]

High temperature gives the hydrogen atoms enough energy to overcome the electrical repulsion between the protons. Fusion requires temperatures of about 100 million Kelvin (approximately six times hotter than the sun's core).

Could an experiment similar to young's two-slit experiment be performed with sound? how might this be carried out? does it matte

Arada [10]

Young's double slit experiment(YDSE) can be used for any kind of waves such as electromagnetic waves, sound waves, water waves, gravity waves. YDSE is based on interference. In this experiment, we make two waves interfere in order to obtain bright and dark fringes on the screen(in case of light).
You can carry this out with water, would be great if you try this at pond or water reservoir in order to see perfect ripples.
