Answer:

<em>The internal energy change is 330.01 J</em>

Explanation:

Given

v_{1} the initial volume = 5.75 L

v_{2} the final volume = 1.23 L

P_{e} is the external pressure = 1.00 atm

q the heat energy removed = -128 J (since is removed from the system)

expansion against a constant external pressure is an example of an irreversible pathway, here pressure in is greater than pressure out and can be obtained thus;

W = -P_{e}ΔV

W = -1.00 x(1.23 - 5.75)

W =  -1.00 x -4.52

W = 4.52 L atm

converting to joules we have

W = 4.52 L atm x 101.33 J/ L atm = 458.01 J

The internal energy change during compression can be calculated thus;

ΔU = q + W

ΔU = -128 J + 458.01 J

ΔU = 330.01 J

Therefore the internal energy change is 330.01 J

Why do radio waves have the lowest frequency of all the waves on the electromagnetic spectrum?
lara [203]

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are the waves which are created as the result of the electrical waves which are perpendicular to each other and also perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

Electromagnetic spectrum is range of the frequencies and their respective wavelengths of the various type of the electromagnetic radiation.

In order of the increasing frequency and the photon energy and the decreasing wavelength the spectrum are:  

radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays.

The energy of the radio waves photons is the lowest of all the other waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Also, E={h\times \nu}

Where,  

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

Thus, energy is directly proportional to the frequency. The radio waves have the lowest frequency.

To construct a solenoid, you wrap insulated wire uniformly around a plastic tube 7.1 cm in diameter and 57 cm in length. You wou
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

We need about 8769 meters of wire to produce a 2.6 kilogauss magnetic field.

Explanation:

Recall the formula for the magnetic field produced by a solenoid of length L. N turns, and running a current I:

B=\mu_0\,\frac{N}{L} \,I

So, in our case, where B = 2.6 KG = 0.26 Tesla; I is 3 amperes, and L = 0.57 m, we can find what is the number of turns needed;

B=\mu_0\,\frac{N}{L} \,I\\0.26=4\,\pi\,10^{-7}\frac{N}{0.57} \,3\\N=\frac{0.26*0.57\,10^7}{12\,\pi} \\N=39311.27

Therefore we need about 39312 turns of wire. Considering that each turn must have a length of \pi\,D, where D is the diameter of the plastic cylindrical tube, then the total length of the wire must be:

Length=39312\,(\pi\,D)=39312\,(\pi\,0.071)\approx 8768.66\,\,m

We can round it to about 8769 meters.

If 1.34 ✕ 1020 electrons move through a pocket calculator during a full day's operation, how many coulombs of charge moved throu
ioda

Given :

Number of operations move through a pocket calculator during a full day's operation , n=1.34 \times 10^{20} .

To Find :

How many coulombs of charge moved through it .

Solution :

We know , charge in  one electron is :

e^-=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ coulombs

So , charge on n electron is :

C=e^-\times n\\C=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.34\times 10^{20} \ C\\C=-21.44\ C

Therefore , -21.44 coulombs of charge is moved through it .

Hence , this is the required solution .
