Answer:

Rate of change of specific energy will be =\frac{2.5}{2.8}=0.8928j/kgsec                      

Explanation:

We have given mass of the motor oil m = 2.8 kg

Heat is transferred to the oil at a rate Q = 1 W

Power supply by stemming device  W=-1.5Watt

Applying first law to the device

Q=W+dU

1=-1.5+dU

dU=2.5

Rate of change of specific energy will be =\frac{2.5}{2.8}=0.8928j/kgsec

A person runs up several flights of stairs and is exhausted at the top. Later the same person walks up the same stairs and does
KIM [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work done by the person depends on its mass and the height raised. It also depends on the acceleration due to gravity.

As the height raised and the mass of person is same. The value of acceleration due to gravity is also constant So, the work done is also same in both the cases.

Which of the following materials offer the least electrical resistance? Pure water, wood, salt water, glass
Vanyuwa [196]

Salt water offers the least electrical resistance.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Least electrical resistance indicates that any material which readily allows the electric current through itself, and shows more conductivity.

Here pure water doesn't contain any ions, so it is a bad conductor.

Wood and glass are also bad conductors of electricity.

Salt water contains ions, which conducts electricity which means it shows least electrical resistance.

An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid X and 481 km from the center of asteroid
mariarad [96]

Explanation:

It is given that, An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid X and 481 km from the center of asteroid Y, along the straight line joining the centers of the asteroids. We need to find the ratio of their masses.

As they are in equilibrium, the force of gravity due to each other is same. So,

\dfrac{Gm_xM}{r^2}=\dfrac{Gm_yM}{r^2}\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{r_x^2}=\dfrac{m_y}{r_y^2}\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{r_x^2}=\dfrac{m_y}{r_y^2}\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{m_y}=(\dfrac{r_x^2}{r_y^2})\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{m_y}=(\dfrac{140^2}{481^2})\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{m_y}=0.0847

So, the ratio of masses X/Y is 0.0847
