Answer:

e. 27 rho.

Explanation:

The density of an object, assumed constant, is defined as the relationship between the mass and the volume.

If the object is compressed in such a way that the diameter is reduced to 1/3, this means, that the radius will be reduced in the same proportion.

Now, if the mass remains the same (the compression can't change it) , the volume (assumed to be a perfect sphere) will be reduced also:

V₀ = 4/3*π*r³

Vf=  4/3*π*(r/3)³ = 4/3*π*(r³/27) = V₀/27

As the volume is in in the denominator of the expression for density, this means that the new density will be equal to 27 times the original one:

ρ₀ = m/ V₀

ρ₁ = m/ V₁ = m/ (V₀/27) = 27* (m/V₀) = 27*ρ₀

<span> (a) the work done on the gas

From the definition of work in thermodynamics,

W = integral (PdV)

It is said that the process above is done at constant volume. Therefore, the value of dV is zero which would result to

(b) the increase in internal energy of the gas
</span> From the first law of thermodynamics,

ΔU = Q + W

where U is the change in internal energy, Q is the heat and W is the work which is zero in this case

ΔU = Q = 209 J<span>

(c) its final temperature
at constant volume,
Q = nCv(T2 - T1)
209 = 1 (3R/2) (T2 - 300)
T = 316.76 K</span>

Lucia is playing with magnetic toy vehicles. She has two identical toy vehicles (purple and pink) that start on opposite sides o
jekas [21]

Answer: The potential energy of both toy vehicles (purple and pink) decreased. Since the pink toy was moved closer to the magnet, it will have less potential energy because of the short distance it will take to travel to the magnet.

Why does an object have a different weight on the moon than it does on Earth? Everything is weightless in space. Objects move mo
ankoles [38]
-- "Weight" is the gravitational attraction between TWO objects.

-- Its 'strength' depends on the mass of BOTH masses.
If either mass changes, then the gravitational force between them changes.

-- Your 'weight' on Earth depends on your mass and the Earth's mass.

-- Your 'weight on the moon depends on your mass and the Moon's mass.

From the list of choices, the best one is  "The Earth and moon have
different values for the acceleration due to gravity.", although that
doesn't really explain much.
