Which of the following is true of an adiabatic process?
2 answers:
Adiabatic process is that process in which heat of a closed system will remain conserved or we can say that system can not exchange its thermal energy from its surrounding
So here from 1st law of thermodynamics we can say
since we know that
so we will have
so we have
so here correct answers are
<em>A. -ΔU = W </em>
<em>B. Heat is constant. </em>

Answer:
Explanation:
For this exercise we must use the principle of conservation of energy
starting point. The proton very far from the nucleus
Em₀ = K = ½ m v²
final point. The point where the proton is stopped (v = 0)
Em_f = U = q V
where the potential is
V = k Ze / r²
Let us consider that all the charge of the nucleus is in the center, therefore r is the distance from this point to the proton that is approaching
Energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_f
½ m v² = e ()
with this expression we can find the closest approach distance (r)
