First, we convert kcal to joules:
1 kcal = 4.184 kJ
475 kcal = 1987.4 kJ

Now, calculating the change in internal energy:

ΔU = Q + W; where Q is the heat supplied to the system and W is the work done on the system.

ΔU = -500 + 1987.4
ΔU = 1487.4 kJ

The change in the internal energy of the system due to the work done and the heat released is \boxed{1487.4\,{\text{kJ}}}.

Further Explanation:

Given:

The energy absorbed by the system from the surroundings is 5.0\times {10^2}\,{\text{kJ}}.

The work done by the surroundings on the system is 475\,{\text{kcal}}.

Concept:

The change in internal energy of the system due to the amount of work done and the amount of energy released by the system into the surroundings is given by the First Law of Thermodynamics.

According to the First Law of Thermodynamics, the energy of an isolated system is always conserved. It means that the change in internal energy of the system is equal to the sum of the work done on the system and the amount of energy absorbed by the system.

\Delta U = Q + W

Here, \Delta U is the change in internal energy, Q is the energy absorbed and W is the work done.

Here the value of Q will be negative because the system does not absorb any energy. It rather releases energy into the surroundings.

The amount of work done on the system in Joules is:

\begin{aligned}475\,{\text{Kcal}} &= 475 \times 4.184\,{\text{kJ}}\\&= {\text{1987}}{\text{.4}}\,{\text{kJ}}\\\end{aligned}

Substitute the value in above expression.

\begin{aligned}\Delta U&= - 500\,{\text{kJ}} + 1987.4\,{\text{kJ}}\\&= 1487.4\,{\text{kJ}}\\\end{aligned}

Thus, the change in the internal energy of the system is \boxed{1487.4\,{\text{kJ}}}.

Answer:

Q = 1.2*10⁻¹² C

Explanation:

  • For any capacitor, by definition the capacitance C is equal to the relationship between the charge on one of the conductors and the potential difference between them, as follows:

       C = \frac{Q}{V}  (1)

  • For the special case of a parallel plate capacitor, just by application of Gauss' law to a rectangular surface half out of the outer surface, and half inside it, it can be showed that the value of the capacitance C is a parameter defined only by geometric constants, as follows:

       C = \frac{\epsilon_{0}*\epsilon _{r} * A}{d}  (2)

  • So, due to the left sides in (1) and (2) are equal each other, right sides must be equal too.
  • Replacing ε₀, εr (dielectric constant), A, d and V by their values, we can solve for Q, as follows:

       Q =\frac{\epsilon_{0} * \epsilon_{r} *A* V}{d} = \frac{(8.85*(4.7)^{2}*79.5)e-24 (F/m*m2*V)}{1.3e-8m} =  1.2e-12 C = 1.2 pC  (3)
