Answer:

The system loses 90 kJ of heat

Explanation:

We can answer the question by using the 1st law of thermodynamics, which states that:

\Delta U=Q-W

where

\Delta U is the change in internal energy of the system

Q is the heat absorbed by the system (positive if absorbed, negative if released by the system)

W is the work done by the system (positive if done by the system, negative if done by the surrounding on the system)

In this problem, we have:

W=-150 kJ is the work done (negative, because it is done by the surrounding on the system)

\Delta U=+60 kJ is the increase in internal energy

Using the equation above, we can find Q, the heat absorbed/released by the system:

Q=\Delta U+W=+60 kJ+(-150 kJ)=-90 kJ

And the negative sign means that the system has lost this heat.

You are working at a company that manufactures electri- cal wire. Gold is the most ductile of all metals: it can be stretched in
Alona [7]

Explanation:

We know that the relation between volume and density is as follows.

      Volume = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{density}}

So,       V = \frac{10^{-3}}{19.3 \times 10^{3} kg/m^{3}}

               = 5.181 \times 10^{-8} m^{3}

Now, we will calculate the area as follows.

      Area = \frac{\text{volume}}{\text{length}}

               = \frac{5.181 \times 10^{-8} m^{3}}{2.4 \times 10^{3}}

               = 2.15 \times 10^{-11} m^{2}

Formula to calculate the resistance is as follows.

         R = \rho \frac{l}{A}

             = \frac{2.44 \times 10^{-8} \times 2400}{}2.15 \times 10^{-11}}

             = 2.71 \times 10^{6} ohm

Thus, we can conclude that the resistance of given wire is 2.71 \times 10^{6} ohm.

Explain why more stars are circumpolar for observers at higher latitudes.
PIT_PIT [208]

Explanation:

When you observe the night sky you will notice that the stars are moving. They rise from eastern horizon and set in the western horizon. It happens due to rotation of Earth. When observed closely you will notice that the all the stars seem to go around the pole star. Out of all the stars there are some stars which neither set not rise, such stars are called as Circumpolar stars. This means that they are always above the horizon. If we trace the path of such stars they will appear to make complete circle around the pole star.

Also, you will notice that the altitude of pole star (separation of pole star from the horizon in degrees) will depend on the location of observe on the Earth. This happens due to Earth being spherical. So if you are on equator the pole star will be on the horizon i.e. 0° altitude. If you are at Poles, altitude of the pole star will be 90°. Technically the altitude of pole star at any place on Earth is equal to the latitude of the place.

If the altitude of pole star varies and increases as you move towards higher latitude on Earth, the distance between horizon and pole star will also increase. This will result in more stars being circumpolar.

If you are at Poles, all the stars will be circumpolar and if you are at equator no star will be circumpolar.
