Answer:

312 kJ

Explanation:

The thermal energy contained in a cubic meter of air at room temperature (20 C) and one atmosphere (101 kPa) would be.

H = Cv * T + p * V

Being

Cv: specific heat of air at constant volme (0.72 kJ/(kg*K))

T: temperature in absolute scale (20C is 293 K)

Then:

H = 0.72 * 293 + 101 * 1 = 312 kJ

The only way to extract thermal energy from a body and turn it into useful work (such as charging a phone) is to exchange heat with it and a another colder body. So, with just the air at room temperature it is impossible to extract its heat energy.

Sati [7]

Answer:

V for dry skin = 41.83 volts

V for wet skin = 0.196 volts

Explanation:

The relationship between current and voltage is given as follows by Ohm's Law:

V = IR

where,

V = voltage

I = Current

R = Resistance

FOR DRY SKIN:

V = Vd = ?

I = 89 μA = 89 x 10⁻⁶ A

R = 4.7 x 10⁵ Ω

Therefore,

Vd = (89 x 10⁻⁶ A)(4.7 x 10⁵ Ω)

<u>Vd = 41.83 volts</u>

FOR WET SKIN:

V = Vw = ?

I = 89 μA = 89 x 10⁻⁶ A

R = 2200 Ω

Therefore,

Vd = (89 x 10⁻⁶ A)(2200 Ω)

<u>Vd = 0.196 volts</u>

(6.1)
Kinetic energy is a scalar (it has magnitude but no direction); it is always a positive number; and it has SI units of kg · m2/s2. This new combination of the basic SI units is
known as the joule:
As we will see, the joule is also the unit of work W and potential energy U. Other energy
1joule = 1J = 1 kg·m2 (6.2) s2
units often seen are:
6.1.2 Work
1erg=1g·cm2 =10−7J 1eV=1.60×10−19J s2
When an object moves while a force is being exerted on it, then work is being done on the object by the force.
If an object moves through a displacement d while a constant force F is acting on it, the force does an amount of work equal to
W =F·d=Fdcosφ (6.3)
where φ is the angle between d and F.

shutvik [7]

Answer:

Yellow dwarfs are small, main sequence stars. The Sun is a yellow dwarf. A red dwarf is a small, cool, very faint, main sequence star whose surface temperature is under about 4,000 K. Red dwarfs are the most common type of star. Proxima Centauri is a red dwarf.
