3 0

Answer:

work will be positive when it is under polytropic expansion process

Explanation:

It states a polytropic  process with n equal to 1.67. there is a polytropic expansion that mean work is positive and if it was polytropic compression then it would   be negative

PV^n = const

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Also work during the process of polytropic is given as

W_{1-2} =\frac{P_1V_1 -P_2V_2}{n-1}

the work will be positive when it is under the polytropic expansion process

How does heat conduction differ from convection?
Helga [31]

Explanation:

Conduction:

     Heat transfer in the conduction occurs due to movement of molecule or we can say that due to movement of electrons in the two end of same the body. Generally,  phenomenon of conduction happens in the case of solid . In conduction heat transfer takes places due to direct contact of two bodies.

Convection:

              In convection heat transfer of fluid takes place due to density difference .In simple words we can say that heat transfer occur due to motion of fluid.

nirvana33 [79]

a) Question Completion:

INPUT HOURS OF LABOR

Country   Cookies      Milk

Atlantis       2 hours   1 hour

Neverland  4 hours   1 hour

Answer:

1. Atlantis has the absolute advantage in the production of cookies.

2. No country has the absolute advantage in the production of milk.

Explanation:

Absolute advantage refers to superior production capability.  It is determined when a country, for example, has the ability to produce a particular good or service at lower cost or more efficiently (i.e. with less resources) than the other country.  In the scenario above, Atlantis has an absolute advantage in the production of cookies because it can produce the same quantity of cookies using 2 labor hours that Neverland can produce using 4 labor hours.  But for the production of milk, Atlantis and Neverland share the same comparative advantage less they can use less labor hours to produce milk than they can produce cookies.
