Answer:

(a) W=1.20×10⁴J

(b) U= -5.46×10⁴J

(c) Q= -4.26×10⁴J

Explanation:

Given that student does 1.20×10⁴J work

(a) W=1.20×10⁴J

Work done by student,so positive sign

During the process, his internal energy decreases by 5.46×10⁴J.

(b) U= -5.46×10⁴J.

As the Energy decreases therefore negative sign

For (c) Q

We know the formula

Q=W+U\\Q=1.2*10^{4}+(-5.46*10^{4} )\\ Q=-4.26*10^{4}J

What is the average speed of a car that travels 40 mph for 1 hour and 60 mph in another hour?
svetoff [14.1K]

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

-- Traveling at 40 mph for 1 hour, the distance covered is 40 miles.

-- Traveling at 60 mph for 1 hour, the distance covered is 60 miles.

-- Total distance covered = (40 miles) + (60 miles) = 100 miles

-- Total time = (1 hour) + (1 hour)  =  2 hours

-- Average speed = (100 miles) / (2 hours)

<em>Average speed = 50 miles per hour</em>

The closer the charged particles, the... the electrostatic force.
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

please give me brain list and follow

Explanation:

Therefore, if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the attraction or repulsion becomes weaker, decreasing to one-fourth of the original value. If the charges come 10 times closer, the size of the force increases by a factor of 100. The size of the force is proportional to the value of each charge.

an ice cube is placed in the sun later there is a puddle of water later still the.puddle is gone what kind of change has occured
TiliK225 [7]

Clear question is;

An ice cube is placed in the sun. Later there is a puddle of water. Later still the puddle is gone. What kind of change has occurred?

Answer:

Physical change.

Explanation:

There are two type of changes called physical change and chemical change.

In Physical changes, there is only change in the appearance of the substance and not its chemical composition. Whereas, in Chemical changes the substance changes entirely into another substance with a new chemical formula.

Now, for the ice cube, it has melted from a solid state to a liquid state. Thus, there is only a change in appearance and not its chemical composition. Thus, it's a physical change that has occurred.

Anything that causes change must have energy?
Makovka662 [10]
This is a true fact.
Example: An object sitting still in place has energy called potential energy so if an object moving, kinetic energy, and pushes the other object not moving, then the potential energy object will now have kinetic energy; Change.

So, that IS a true fact.

I hope this helped!
