Add these two velocity vectors to find the magnitude of their resultant vector.
hammer [34]

The  magnitude of their resultant vector is 4.6 meters/seconds

Since we are to add the  velocity vectors in order to  find the magnitude of their resultant vector.

Hence:

Resultant vector magnitude=5.8 meters/seconds + (1.2 meters/seconds)

Resultant vector magnitude=5.8 meters/seconds-1.2 meters/seconds

Resultant vector magnitude 4.6 meters/seconds

Inconclusion The  magnitude of their resultant vector is 4.6 meters/seconds

It is known that heat is added to a gas in sealed container. The container is fitted with a moveable piston.
jasenka [17]

Answer:

d. Not enough information is given to answer this question.

Explanation:

From first law of thermodynamics

Q= W + ΔU

Q=Heat  ,W= Work , ΔU=Change in internal energy

If work done by the gas :

It means that W and Q both are positive

Q- W = ΔU

Ii Q > W ,then temperature of the gas will increase.

If  Q< W  ,Then temperature of the gas will decreases.

If work done on the gas:

Q positive but W will be negative

Q- W = ΔU

Q= W or Q>W  or Q< W ,then temperature of the gas will increase.

There are three cases because they did not give any information about the work.That is why option d is correct.
