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

. What is the change in internal energy of the gas?

Answer:

The value of change in internal 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.

A car mass of 1.2 x 10 kilograms starts from rest and attains a speed of 20 meters/seconds in 5 seconds. What net force acted on
lorasvet [3.4K]

Net force on the car=F=4.8 x 10³ N

Explanation:

mass of car= 1.2 x 10³ Kg

initial velocity= Vi=0

Final velocity= Vf= 20 m/s

time = t= 5 s

Using kinematic equation,

Vf= Vi + at

20= 0 + a (5)

5 a=20

a= 20/5

a= 4 m/s²

Now force is given by F = ma

F= 1.2 x 10³ (4)

F=4.8 x 10³ N

What is the equivalent resistance of a circuit that contains two 50.00
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Resistors in series add. There is only one path the current can take. That's why Christmas Tree lights sometimes give a lot of trouble. If a bulb burns out, it could be any one of them and time is needed to find the burned out bulb.

That being the case R = R1 + R2

R1 = 50 ohms

R2 = 50 ohms

R = 50 + 50

R = 100 ohms

Answer A

Svetllana [295]

Answer: a) Observation

b) observation

c) observation

d) observation

e) inference

f) inference

g) inference

h) inference

Explanation:

observation: The photosphere is made mostly of hydrogen and helium,The photosphere emits mostly visible light,The corona is hotter than the photosphere, The Sun emits neurtrinos

inferences: The Sun generates energy by fusing hydrogen into helium,The core temperature is 10 million k, The convection zone is cooler than the radiation zone,The composition of the photosphere is the same as that the gas cloud that have birth to our solar system.

A sound wave with a frequency of 400 Hz is moving through a solid object. If the wavelength of the sound wave is 8 m, what is th
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

v = 3200 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the frequency of the sound wave is given as

f = 400 Hz

wavelength of the sound wave is given as

\lambda = 8 m

so now we have

speed = wavelength \times frequency

so we will have

v = (8m) \times (400 Hz)

v = 3200 m/s
