Answer:

Its color.

Explanation:

The color of ice is white and we know that white color is a good reflector while black color is a good absorbent. So that's why people in warm countries uses white clothes due to its reflecting property uses black clothes in winter due to its absorbing property. So due to white color of the ice sheet, more solar radiations are reflected back into the atmosphere after striking.

In a heat engine, 700 J of heat enters the system, and the piston does 400 J of work. What is the final internal (thermal) energ
Vitek1552 [10]

The first law of thermodynamics characterises the two types of energy transfer, as heat and as thermodynamic. The final internal (thermal) energy of the system is 1,500 J.

<h3>What is internal energy?</h3>

The energy present in a system itself for conducting reactions is called internal energy.

Given,

  • Heat entering system (Q) = 700 J
  • Work done by the piston (W) = 400
  • Initial energy (\rm U_{1})= 1200 J

According to the <u>first law of thermodynamics</u>:

\rm Q = \Delta U + W

Substituting values in the above equation:

\begin{aligned}\rm Q &= \rm U_{2} - U_{1} + W\\\\\rm U_{2}  &= \rm Q - W + U_{1}\\\\\rm U_{2}  &= 700 - 400 + 1200\\\\&= 1500 \;\rm J\end{aligned}

Therefore, option D. 1500 J is the final energy.
