E) Thermal energy is released during

vichka [17]

Answer:

e) True, f) False

Explanation:

e) Let consider a close system, that is, a system with no mass interactions with surroundings. Then, we get the following expression by the First Law of Thermodynamics:

$Q_{net,in} - W_{net, out} = \Delta U$ (1)

Where:

$Q_{net, in}$ - Net input heat, measured in joules.

$W_{net, out}$ - Net output work, measured in joules.

$\Delta U$ - Change in thermal energy, measured in joules.

Please notice that work comprises all kind of work (i.e. mechanical, electric, magnetic), whereas heat comprises all heat interactions including chemical and radioactive phenomena.

If thermal energy is released, then $\Delta U < 0$ , which is caused by three scenarios:

(i) $Q_{net,in} < 0$ , $W_{net, out} < 0$ , $|Q_{net,in}|>|W_{net,out}|$

(ii) $Q_{net, in} > 0$ , $W_{net,out} > 0$ , $|Q_{net,in}|$

(iii) $Q_{net,in}< 0$ , $W_{net, out}>0$

In the case $Q_{net,in} > 0$ , $W_{net, out}$ , the thermal energy of the system is increased. Therefore, thermal energy is released during some energy conversions. Answer: True

f) A liquid solidifies when temperature goes below point of fusion, meaning a realease of heat with no work interactions. That is:

$Q_{net, in} = \Delta U$ , $Q_{net, in} < 0$ (2)

If $Q_{net, in} < 0$ , then $\Delta U < 0$ . Then, if a liquid absorbs heat energy, then thermal energy is increase and the liquid does not solidifies. Answer: False.

When low on gasoline, is it better to increase or decrease the speed of the vehicle? Explain.

sergiy2304 [10]

Yeah!! It is better to decrease the speed of the vehicle so the ejection of gases would happen in slow manner.... then you can save your gasoline

What total mass must be converted into energy

Eduardwww [97]

This question apparently wants you to get comfortable
with E = m c² . But I must say, this question is a lame
way to do it.

c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
E = m c²

   1.03 x 10⁻¹³ joule = (m) (3 x 10⁸ m/s)²

Divide each side by (3 x 10⁸ m/s)²:

   Mass = (1.03 x 10⁻¹³ joule) / (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)

   = (1.03 / 9) x (10⁻¹³ ⁻ ¹⁶) (kg)

   = 1.144 x 10⁻³⁰ kg . (choice-1)

This is roughly the mass of (1 and 1/4) electrons, so it seems
that it could never happen in nature. The question is just an
exercise in arithmetic, and not a particularly interesting one.
______________________________________

Something like this could have been much more impressive:

The Braidwood Nuclear Power Generating Station in northeastern
Ilinois USA serves Chicago and northern Illinois with electricity.
<span>The station has two pressurized water reactors, which can generate
a net total of 2,242 megawatts at full capacity, making it the largest
nuclear plant in the state.
If the Braidwood plant were able to completely convert mass
to energy, how much mass would it need to convert in order
to provide the total electrical energy that it generates in a year,
operating at full capacity ?

Energy = (2,242 x 10⁶ joule/sec) x (86,400 sec/day) x (365 da/yr)

   = (2,242 x 10⁶ x 86,400 x 365) joules

   = 7.0704 x 10¹⁶ joules .

How much converted mass is that ?

   E = m c²

Divide each side by c² : Mass = E / c² .
c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

    Mass = (7.0704 x 10¹⁶ joules) / (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)

      = 0.786 kilogram ! ! !

THAT should impress us ! If I've done the arithmetic correctly,
then roughly (1 pound 11.7 ounces) of mass, if completely
converted to energy, would provide all the energy generated
by the largest nuclear power plant in Illinois, operating at max
capacity for a year !
