A 2 kg sample of air contained in a 2 m3 rigid container undergoes a process in which its pressure reduces from 100.45 kPa to 86

.10 kPa while the volume remains the same. Please calculate (a) how much work was done, (b) by how much did the internal energy of the air change, (c) how much heat was transferred (please specify the direction of heat transfer).

An average sleeping person metabolizes at a rate of about 80 W by digesting food or burning fat. Typically, 20% of this energy g
Leto [7]

Answer:

<em> -4.7 x 10^-3 J/K-s</em>

Explanation:

The Power generated by metabolizing food = 80 W

The watt W is equivalent to the Joules per sec J/s

therefor power = 80 J/s

20% of this energy is not used for heating, amount available for heating is

==> H = 80% of 80 = 0.8 x 80 = 64 J/s

The inner body temperature = 37 °C = 273 + 37 = 310 K

The entropy of this inner body ΔS = ΔH/T

ΔS = 64/310 = 0.2065 J/K-s

The skin temperature is cooler than the inner body by 7 °C

Temperature of the skin =  37 - 7 = 30 °C = 273 + 30 = 303 K

The entropy of the skin = ΔS = ΔH/T

ΔS = 64/303 = 0.2112 J/K-s

change in entropy of the person's body = (entropy of hot region: inner body) - (entropy of cooler region: skin)

==> 0.2065 - 0.2112 =<em> -4.7 x 10^-3 J/K-s</em>

Nuclear reactors use fuel rods to heat water and generate steam. Is this process endothermic or exothermic?
Anna71 [15]

Explanation:

Exothermic reaction is defined as the reaction in which release of heat takes place. This also means that in an exothermic reaction, bond energies of reactants is less than the bond energies of products.

Hence, difference between the energies between the reactants and products releases as heat and therefore, enthalpy of the system will decrease.

Whereas in an endothermic reaction, heat is supplied from outside and absorbed by the reactant molecules. Hence, enthalpy of the system increases.

As water acts as a coolent and when fuel rods in a nuclear reactor are immersed in it then heat created by coolent is absorbed by water and then it changes into steam.

Since, absorption of heat occurs in the nuclear reactor. Therefore, it is an endothermic reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that nuclear reactors use fuel rods to heat water and generate steam. This process is endothermic.

Why does the frequency of a wave increase as the wavelength decreases
olchik [2.2K]

Explanation:

We know that the number of complete waves formed in 1 sec time is frequency and the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs is wavelength. And we have the formula that

Velocity = wavelength * frequency

or, frequency = velocity / wavelength

Here we can see frequency is directly proportional to velocity and indirectly proportional to wavelength.

So as the wavelength increases frequency decreases and as the wavelength decreases frequency increases.

Hope you understood

A pail in a water well is hoisted by means of a frictionless winch, which consists of a spool and a hand crank. When Jill turns
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

182.28 W

Explanation:

Here ,

m = 7.30 Kg

distance , d= 28.0 m

time , t = 11.0 s

average power supplied = change in potential energy/time

average power supplied = m×g×d/time

average power supplied = 7.30×9.81×28/11

average power supplied = 182.28 W

the average power supplied is  182.28 W
