In thermodynamics<span>, </span>work<span> performed by a system is the energy transferred by the system to its surroundings. It is calculated by the integral of pressure and volume of the system. At constant pressure, the expression for work would be as follows:

W = P(V2-V1)
W = 1.21(3.35 -5.64) = -2.77 L-atm
W = -2.77 (101.33) = -280.78 J</span>

Some lenses are shaped with one flat side and one spherically-shaped side. This shape is designed to focus parallel light rays o
Komok [63]

Answer:

Some lenses are used to focus light to a pre-defined point based on the amount of curvature of their surfaces.

In a piano design convex, some surfaces are flat while others has positive lenses (biconvex)

Explanation:

Solution

These lenses are applied to pay attention to light in a  point pre-defined  based on the amount of curvature of their surfaces.

For that of a plano-convex design, one surface has a positive curve and for biconvex lenses, both surfaces are positively curved while the other  remains flat.

when used practically, plano-convex lenses are most commonly used where the object being imaged is far apart from lens.

A descending elevator of mass 1,000 kg is uniformly decelerated to rest over a distance of 8 m by a cable in which the tension i
Stolb23 [73]

The speed  V_{i} of the elevator at the beginning of the 8 m descent is nearly 4 m/s. Hence, option A is the correct answer.

We are given that-

the mass of the elevator (m) = 1000 kg ;

the distance the elevator decelerated to be y = 8m ;

the tension is T = 11000 N;

let us determine the acceleration 'a' by using Newton's second law of motion.

∑Fy = ma

W - T = ma

(1000kg x 9.8 m/s² ) - 11000N = 1000 kg x a

9800 - 11000 = 1000

a = - 1.2 m/s²

Using the equation of kinematics to determine the initial velocity.

V_{f} ² = V_{i}² + 2ay

V_{i} = √ ( 2 x 1.2m/s² x 8 m )

V_{i} = √19.2 m²/s²

V_{i} = 4.38 m/s   ≈ 4 m/s

Hence, the initial velocity of the elevator is 4m/s.

You drive on Interstate 10 from San Antonio to Houston, half the time at 75 km/h and the other half at 106 km/h. On the way back
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) from San Antonio to Houston let distance be d km .

Average speed = total distance / total time

time = distance / speed

Total time = (d / 2 x 75 ) +( d / 2 x 106 )

= .0067 d + .0047 d

= .0114 d

Average speed  = d / .0114 d = 87.72 km /h

b ) from Houston back to San Antonio

Total time = (d / 2 x 106 ) +( d / 2 x 75 )

= .0047 d + .0067 d

= .0114 d

Average speed  = d / .0114 d = 87.72 km /h

c )

For entire trip :

total distance = 2d

total time = 2 x .0114 d

Average speed  = 2 d / 2 x .0114 d

= 87.72 km /h .
