Answer:

Because heat is a path function or the energy in transit.

Explanation:

  • It is not correct to say that a body contains a certain amount of heat because the heat is a path function and not a property of the system. It is the energy in transit which can be encountered only when it crosses the system boundary.
  • Heat is the energy in transit of a matter which flows by the virtue of temperature difference. The heat energy in a body is stored in the form of kinetic energy of the molecules which gets converted into heat that we know as the responsible factor for the rise in temperature usually.

A truck travels 1430 m uphill along a road that makes a constant angle of 5.76◦ with the horizontal.
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The horizontal component of displacement is d' = 1422.7 m

Explanation:

Given data,

The distance covered by the truck, d = 1430 m

The angle formed with the horizontal, Ф = 5.76°

The displacement is a vector quantity.

The horizontal component of displacement is given by,

                                 d' = d cos Ф

                                     = 1430 cos 5.76°

                                     = 1422.7 m

Hence, the horizontal component of displacement is d' = 1422.7 m

one group of atoms on the periodic tables are known as "noble gases". why have they been given this name?​
maria [59]
This group is called “noble gases” because they do not react with other elements. This is because they have a full valence shell.
