There are two correct options:
<span>d) a volume compression
e) adding heat to the system

In fact, we can have a look at the first law of thermodynamics:
</span>\Delta U = Q-W
<span>where
</span>\Delta U is the variation of internal energy
<span>Q is the heat absorbed by the system
W is the work done by the system on the surrounding

It is important to keep in mind the right sign convention for Q and W: Q is positive when the heat is absorbed by the system, while it is negative when it is released by the system; W is positive when it is done by the system on the surrounding, and negative when it is done by the surrounding on the system.

Using this convention, we can see that:
d) when there is a volume compression, the work is done by the surrounding on the system, so the work is negative, and the variation of internal energy is positive due to the negative sign -W in the first law of thermodynamics
e) when heat is added to the system, Q is positive, so the variation of internal energy is positive as well</span>

With a diameter that's 11 times larger than Earth's, _______ is the largest planet.
Svetradugi [14.3K]
With a diameter that's 11 times larger than Earth's, Jupiter is the largest planet.

Jupiter is the biggest planet in the solar system. No wonder ancient astronomers named it after Jupiter, King of the Roman gods. More than 1,000 planets the size of Earth could fit inside Jupiter. A tunnel through Jupiter would be 11 times longer than a tunnel through Earth. A trip around Jupiter equator would take 6 times longer than a trip around the Earth's equator.

At the Indianapolis 500, you can measure the speed of cars just by listening to the difference in pitch of the engine noise betw
allsm [11]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Dopler effect.

The equation is defined by

f_i = f_0 \frac{c}{c+v}

Where

f_h= Approaching velocities

f_i= Receding velocities

c = Speed of sound

v = Emitter speed

And

f_h = f_0 \frac{c}{c+v}

Therefore using the values given we can find the velocity through,

\frac{f_h}{f_0}=\frac{c-v}{c+v}

v = c(\frac{f_h-f_i}{f_h+f_i})

Assuming the ratio above, we can use any f_h and f_i with the ratio 2.4 to 1

v = 353(\frac{2.4-1}{2.4+1})

v = 145.35m/s

Therefore the cars goes to 145.3m/s
