A gas is enclosed in a cylinder fitted with a light frictionless piston and maintained at atmospheric pressure. When 3300 kcal o

f heat is added to the gas, the volume is observed to increase slowly from 13.7m^3 19.7m^3.
a) Calculate the work done by the gas.
b) Calculate the change in internal energy of the gas.

Answer

given,

heat added to the gas,Q = 3300 kcal

initial volume, V₁ = 13.7 m³

final volume, V₂ = 19.7 m³

atmospheric pressure, P = 1.013 x 10⁵ Pa

a) Work done by the gas

    W = P Δ V

    W = 1.013 x 10⁵ x (19.7 - 13.7)

    W = 6.029 x 10⁵ J

b) internal energy of the gas = ?

  now,

 change in internal energy

  Δ U = Q - W

    Q = 3300 x 10³ cal

    Q = 3300 x 10³ x 4.186 J

    Q = 1.38 x 10⁷ J

now,

  Δ U = 1.38 x 10⁷  - 6.029 x 10⁵

  Δ U = 1.32 x 10⁷ J

MariettaO [177]

When the image distance is positive, the image is on the same side of the mirror as the object, and it is real and inverted. When the image distance is negative, the image is behind the mirror, so the image is virtual and upright. A negative m means that the image is inverted. Positive means an upright image.

How did ALS impact Stephen Hawking?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Professor Hawking had just turned 21 when he was diagnosed with a very rare slow-progressing form of ALS, a form of motor neurone disease (MND). He was at the end of his time at Oxford when he started to notice early signs of his disease. He was getting more clumsy and fell over several times without knowing why.

Whenever possible, these types of power plants should be built because they generate virtually no pollution. (2 points)
geniusboy [140]
Wind farms, solar collectors, and nuclear power plants generate no pollution.

But wind farms make noise, wind and solar are both hazardous to birds, and there's no known means of disposing of nuclear plant waste that's completely safe.
