A vertical piston-cylinder device contains water and is being heated on top of a range. During the process, 63 Btu of heat is tr
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The water would have a change in the energy of 50 BTU

Explanation:

  1. Under the assumption that the piston-cylinder system is a closed system, then the conservation law of the system would be: E_{in}-E_{out}=E_{change}, where E_{in} is all the energy that goes into the system, E_{out} is all the energy that leaves the system and, E_{change} is the change of the energy of the system.
  2. For this case the energy that is feeded to the system is heat: 63 BTU.
  3. There is two ways that energy is leaving this system: 8 BTU of heat as losses through the side walls and, 5 BTU of work done by the vapor on the piston.
  4. Then the change of energy of the system is: E_{change}=E_{in}-E_{out}=63 BTU-(8BTU+5BTU)=50BTU.

From the last problem, what is the ratio of the ppm change in CO2 to the ppm change in CH4? Assume that the concentrations of CO
xxMikexx [17]

An additional 10ppm of methane will change the upward IR heat flux (in tropical

atmosphere) from 289.29 W/m2

to 286.211 W/m2

, which is a reduction of 3.08

W/m2

.

An additional 10ppm of CO2 will change the upward IR heat flux from 289.29 W/m2

to 289.29 W/m2

, which is a change of 0.13 W/m2

.

Therefore, an additional 10 ppm of methane would have a much larger impact on

the outgoing infrared flux than an additional 10 ppm of CO2 at current

concentrations

Which best compares freezing and condensation?
bearhunter [10]

 

Condensation is a change of state from vapour to liquid while freezing is also a change of state, from liquid to solid. Both are change of states.

Additionally, condensation requires much more energy to change the state of vapor to liquid than it does it change the state of liquid to solid.

What is Newton's third law of motion?​
zzz [600]
<h2>Answer : </h2>

Newton's Third law of motion states :

" Every action has an equal and opposite reaction "

i.e If a force is applied by an object A on another object B then that object B also exerts a foce on object A, that is of same magnitude and opposite direction to the force applied by object A.

Ex - A book on a table exerts gravitational force on the table and table exerts back a normal force on the book.
