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.

The width of the central maxima, formed from light of wavelength 575 nm behind a single slit that has a width of 115 μm, is 1.15
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

 L  = 1.15 m

Explanation:

The diffraction phenomenon is described by the equation

        a sin θ = m λ

Where a is the width of the slit, λ  the wavelength and m is an integer, the order of diffraction is left.

The diffraction measurements are made on a screen that is far from the slit, and the angles in the experiment are very small, let's use trigonometry

          tan θ = y / L

          tan θ = sint θ / cos θ≈ sin θ

We substitute in the first equation

           a (y / L) = m λ

The first maximum occurs for m = 1

The distance is measured from the center point of maximum, which coincides with the center of the slit, in this case the distance is the total width of the central maximum, so the distance (y) measured from the center is

         y = 1.15 / 2 = 0.575 cm

         y = 0.575 10⁻² m

Let's clear the distance to the screen (L)

       L = a y / λ  

Let's calculate

     L = 115 10⁻⁶  0.575 10⁻² / 575 10⁻⁹

     L  = 1.15 m

An angry physics student releases a wrecking ball as shown. The wrecking ball is just about to hit the building at the final tim
daser333 [38]

Answer:

the force between the building and the ball is non-conservative (friction-type force)

Explanation

Explanation:For this exercise the student must create an impulse to move the ball towards the building, in this part he performs positive work since the applied force and the displacement are in the same direction.

When the ball moves it has a kinetic energy and if its height increases or decreases its potential energy also changes, but the sum of being must be equal to the initial work.

When the ball arrives and collides with the building, non-conservative forces, of various kinds; rubbing, breaking, etc. It transforms this energy into a part of heat and another in mechanical energy that the building must absorb, let us destroy its wall

Consequently, the force between the building and the ball is non-conservative (friction-type force
