Q1. Basic calculation of the First law (2’) (a) Suppose that 150 kJ of work are used to compress a spring, and that 25 kJ of hea

t are given off by the spring during this compression. What is the change in internal energy of the spring during the process? (b) Suppose that 100 kJ of work is done by a motor, but it also gives off 10 kJ of heat while carrying out this work. What is the change in internal energy of the motor during the process?

Answer:

(a) ΔU = 125 kJ

(b) ΔU = -110 kJ

Explanation:

<em>(a) Suppose that 150 kJ of work are used to compress a spring, and that 25 kJ of heat are given off by the spring during this compression. What is the change in internal energy of the spring during the process?</em>

<em />

The work is done to the system so w = 150 kJ.

The heat is released by the system so q = -25 kJ.

The change in internal energy (ΔU) is:

ΔU = q + w

ΔU = -25 kJ + 150 kJ = 125 kJ

<em>(b) Suppose that 100 kJ of work is done by a motor, but it also gives off 10 kJ of heat while carrying out this work. What is the change in internal energy of the motor during the process?</em>

<em />

The work is done by the system so w = -100 kJ.

The heat is released by the system so q = -10 kJ.

The change in internal energy (ΔU) is:

ΔU = q + w

ΔU = -10 kJ - 100 kJ = -110 kJ

PythonA group of statisticians at a local college has asked you to create a set of functionsthat compute the median and mode of
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

  1. def median(l):
  2.    if(len(l) == 0):
  3.       return 0
  4.    else:
  5.        l.sort()
  6.        if(len(l)%2 == 0):
  7.            index = int(len(l)/2)
  8.            mid = (l[index-1] + l[index]) / 2
  9.        else:
  10.            mid = l[len(l)//2]  
  11.        return mid  
  12. def mode(l):
  13.    if(len(l)==0):
  14.        return 0
  15.    mode = max(set(l), key=l.count)
  16.    return mode  
  17. def mean(l):
  18.    if(len(l)==0):
  19.        return 0
  20.    sum = 0
  21.    for x in l:
  22.        sum += x
  23.    mean = sum / len(l)
  24.    return mean
  25. lst = [5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 12, 13, 15, 25, 30, 45, 61]
  26. print(mean(lst))
  27. print(median(lst))
  28. print(mode(lst))

Explanation:

Firstly, we create a median function (Line 1). This function will check if the the length of list is zero and also if it is an even number. If the length is zero (empty list), it return zero (Line 2-3). If it is an even number, it will calculate the median by summing up two middle index values and divide them by two (Line 6-8). Or if the length is an odd, it will simply take the middle index value and return it as output (Line 9-10).

In mode function, after checking the length of list, we use the max function to estimate the maximum count of the item in list (Line 17) and use it as mode.

In mean function,  after checking the length of list,  we create a sum variable and then use a loop to add the item of list to sum (Line 23-25). After the loop, divide sum by the length of list to get the mean (Line 26).

In the main program, we test the three functions using a sample list and we shall get

What is a radio wave made up of? Molecules? Electrons? Other?
mafiozo [28]

Radio waves are radiated by charged particles when they are accelerated. They are produced artificially by time-varying electric currents, consisting of electrons flowing back and forth in a specially-shaped metal conductor called an antenna. ... Radio waves are received by another antenna attached to a radio receiver.

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Explanation:

It wouldn't work because the wind energy she would be collecting would actually come from the car engine.

The relative wind velocity observed from a moving vehicle is the sum of the actual wind velocity and the velovity of the vehicle.

u' = u + v

While running a car will generate a rather high wind velocity, and increase the power generated by a wind turbine, the turbine would only be able to convert part of the wind energy into electricity while adding a lot of drag. In the end, it would generate less energy that what the drag casuses the car to waste to move the turbine.

Regenerative braking uses an electric generator connected to the wheel axle to recover part of the kinetic energy eliminated when one brakes the vehicle. Normal brakes dissipate this energy as heat, a regenerative brake uses it to recharge a batttery. Note that is is a fraction of the energy that is recovered, not all of it.

A "regenerative accelerator" makes no sense. Braking is taking kinetic energy out of the vehicle, while accelerating is adding kinetic energy to it. Cars accelerate using the power from their engines.
