How is energy transferred through the water cycle? Please help

Chemistry

Answer:In water cycle, water from clouds fall in the form of rain, snow etc. This water travels through the surface of mountains and passes through rivers, oceans etc and gets evaporated due to heat from Sun.

When water evaporates then it absorbs energy in the form of heat from Sun and when water condenses then heat is released.

Therefore, water gains energy during evaporation and releases it during condensation.

Answer:

The water cycle is driven primarily by the energy from the sun.

A piston in a heat engine does 500 joules of work, and 1400 joules of heat are added to the system. Determine the change in inte
san4es73 [151]

Answer : The change in internal energy is, 900 Joules.

Solution : Given,

Heat given to the system = +1400 J

Work done by the system = -500 J

Change in internal energy is equal to the sum of heat energy and work done.

Formula used :

\Delta U=q+w

where,

\Delta U = change in internal energy

q = heat energy

w = work done

As per question, heat is added to the system that means, q is positive and work done by the system that means, w is negative.

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

\Delta U=(+1400J)+(-500J)=900J

Therefore, the change in internal energy is 900 J.

The change in internal energy depends on the heat energy and work done. As we will change in the heat energy and work done, then changes  will occur in the internal energy. Hence, the energy is conserved.

Calculate: A. Mercury has a specific Heat Capacity of 0.14 J/goC. How much heat is needed to raise the thermometer temperature 1
kari74 [83]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 56 \ Joules}}

Explanation:

We are given the mass, specific heat, and temperature, so we must use this formula for heat energy.

q=mc \Delta T

The mass is 5 grams, the specific heat capacity is 0.14 Joules per gram degree Celsius. Let's find the change in temperature.

  • ΔT= final temperature - initial temperature
  • ΔT= 95°C - 15°C = 80°C

We know the variables and can substitute them into the formula.

m= 5 \ g \\c= 0.14 \ J/ g \ \textdegree C \\\Delta T= 80 \ \textdegree C

q= (5 \ g )( 0.14 \ J/ g \ \textdegree C ) ( 80 \ \textdegree C)

Multiply the first numbers. The grams will cancel.

q= 0.7 \ J/ \textdegree C(80 \ \textdegree C )

Multiply again. This time the degrees Celsius cancel.

q= 56 \ J

56 Joules of heat are needed.
