In a certain time interval, natural gas with energy content of 19000 J was piped into a house during a winter day. In the same t
1 answer:
Explanation:
Since, it is mentioned the there occurs no change in the temperature. This also means that there will occur no change in thermal energy of the system.
Hence, = 0. And, as
= 0 then there will be no work involved. This means that total energy added to the house will return to the outside air as heat.
Therefore,
Q = -(19000 J + 2000 J)
= -21000 J
or, |Q| = 21000 J
Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the energy transfer between the house and the outside air is 21000 J.

Refer to the diagram shown below.
The net force acting on the box is 17 - 13 = 4 N to the right.
The box moves on a friction surface by 3.5 m to the right.
By definition,
Work = Force x Distance.
(a) The work done by the girl is
W₁ = (17 N)*(3.5 m) = 59.5 J
(b) The work done by the boy is
W₂ = (13 N)*(-3.5 m) = - 45.5 J
(c) The work done by the net force is
W₃ = (4 N)*(3.5 m) = 14 J
Note that W₃ = W₁ + W₂
