The mass is still 12kg. Mass is the amount of matter, so that is independent of gravity. However, weight differs. Weight of this object on earth would be 117.6 N and 19.6 N on the moon.

A gas undergoes two processes. In the first, the volume remains constant at 0.200 m3 and the pressure increases from 1.00×105 Pa
Alborosie
<h2>The work done = - 2 x 10⁴ J</h2>

Explanation:

In the first case , the volume is kept constant and pressure varies .

In isothermal process  , the work done

W₁ = V x ΔP

here V is the volume of gas and ΔP is the change in pressure

Thus W₁ = 0

Because there is no change in volume , therefore displacement is zero .

In second case pressure is constant , but volume changes

Thus W₂ = P x ΔV

here P is the pressure  and ΔV is the change in volume

Therefore W₂ = 4 x 10⁵ x 5 x 10⁻² = 2 x 10⁴ J

The total work done W = - 2 x 10⁴ J

Because the work done in compression is negative .

Which of the following statements describes a battery?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The negative electrode of a battery has an excess of positive charge

Explanation:

This is because in every battery, there is a negative electrode ( cathode ) and only positive charge is deposited on it.

For other statements:

Batteries donot store electric charge but they store chemical energy

Some batteries donot use metals for the flow of electrons, but some use hydrogen gas at a pressure of 1 atmosphere.

Why doesn’t the moon fall toward the earth and smash into it?
yarga [219]

Gravity

The moon doesn't smash into the earth because the gravity from the earth keeps the moon in orbit around it.
