Which symbol in the first law of thermodynamics represents the sum of the chemical and thermal energy stored in atoms and molecu
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

U

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics states that:

\Delta U = Q-W

where

U is the internal energy of the gas, which represents the sum of the chemical and thermal energy stored in the atoms and molecules of the gas

\Delta U represents the variation of internal energy

Q is the heat absorbed by the system

W is the work done by the system

So, the sum of the chemical and thermal energy stored in atoms and molecules is represented by U, the internal energy.

What parts make up an atom
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Even though many super-tiny atomic particles exist, you only need to remember the three basic parts of an atom: electrons, protons, and neutrons. What are electrons, protons, and neutrons? Electrons are the smallest of the three particles that make up atoms.

By what factor is the intensity of sound at a rock concert louder than that of a whisper when the two intensity levels are 120 d
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

d) 7.94\times 10^{9}

Explanation:

β₁ = sound level of sound at rock concert = 120 dB

β₂ = sound level of sound due to whisper = 21 dB

I₁ = Intensity of sound at rock concert

I₂ = Intensity of sound due to whisper

sound level of sound at rock concert is given as

\beta _{1} = 10 log\left ( \frac{I_{1}}{10^{-12}} \right )

120 = 10 log\left ( \frac{I_{1}}{10^{-12}} \right )

12 = log\left ( \frac{I_{1}}{10^{-12}} \right )               Eq-1

sound level due to whisper is given as

\beta _{2} = 10 log\left ( \frac{I_{2}}{10^{-12}} \right )

21 = 10 log\left ( \frac{I_{2}}{10^{-12}} \right )

2.1 = log\left ( \frac{I_{2}}{10^{-12}} \right )                          Eq-2

subtracting Eq-2 from Eq-1

12 - 2.1 = log\left ( \frac{I_{1}}{10^{-12}} \right ) - log\left ( \frac{I_{2}}{10^{-12}} \right )

9.9 = log\left ( \frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} \right )

\left ( \frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} \right ) = 7.94\times 10^{9}

A pebble sinks in water . A twig floats on top of the water . Compare the densities of the two objects
algol [13]
If the pebble sinks it has a greater density an the twig has a lighter density
just like water and oil. water sits on top of oil because of their density
