An insurance company wants people to avoid risks because if the person meets with an accsident the expense of the medicines and treatment should be covered by the insurance company.

Answer:

Researching a little bit, Nick Cannon is a rapper, comedian and record producer, none of his career choices include skydiving as a regular job-hazard activity.

In the eyes of the insurance company, this activity is categorized as a Risk, not only a life threatening risk, but a monetary risk.

When the company covered Nick, they probably didn't care whether or not he would perform a set, or sing a new song, etc., but in skydiving, Nick would be putting himself, and the insurance company, at risk.

If he happened to get injured, the company would be the one covering the hospital's bills, and potentially losing income, that when compared to Nick's income, would not be worth it, he would become an expensive asset.

Yet this is exactly the reason why Nick has an insurance, so he could transfer risk, or the chance of loss, to another party. The Company is thinking on managing and balancing responsibility and risk, Nick in the transfer of risk. The company would like to avoid it to prevent having to lose income.

In a heat engine if 1000 j of heat enters the system the piston does 500 j of work, what is the final internal energy of the sys

nydimaria [60]

Answer : The final energy of the system if the initial energy was 2000 J is, 3500 J

Solution :

(1) The equation used is,

$\Delta U=q+w\\\\U_{final}-U_{initial}=q+w$

where,

$U_{final}$ = final internal energy

$U_{initial}$ = initial internal energy

q = heat energy

w = work done

(2) The known variables are, q, w and $U_{initial}$

initial internal energy = $U_{initial}$ = 2000 J

heat energy = q = 1000 J

work done = w = 500 J

(3) Now plug the numbers into the equation, we get

$U_{final}-(2000J)=(1000J)+(500J)$

(4) By solving the terms, we get

$U_{final}-(2000J)=(1000J)+(500J)$

$U_{final}-(2000J)=1500J$

$U_{final}=2000J+1500J$

$U_{final}=3500J$

(5) Therefore, the final energy of the system if the initial energy was 2000 J is, 3500 J

A garrafa térmica (também conhecida como "vaso de Dewar") é um dispositivo extremamente útil para conservar, no seu interior, co

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

A opção A está correta.

O sistema formado pela garrafa térmica e a água perde 400 cal de calor para o meio ambiente.

Option A is correct.

The system formed by the thermos and the water loses 400 cal of heat to the environment.

Explanation:

Quando a temperatura de um sistema reduz, fica claro que o sistema perdeu calor ou energia térmica. Como a temperatura é um dos indicadores mais claros disso, esta conclusão é hermética e correta.

Mas, para saber a quantidade de calor perdida para o meio ambiente, agora fazemos alguns cálculos de energia térmica.

Transferência de calor de ou para o sistema de água e garrafa térmica = c × ΔT

c = capacidade térmica do sistema de água e garrafa térmica = 80 cal /°C

ΔT = Alteração da temperatura do sistema de água e garrafa térmica = (temperatura final) - (temperatura inicial) = 55 - 60 = -5°C

Calor transferido = 80 × -5 = -400 cal.

O sinal de menos mostra que o calor é transferido para fora do sistema, ou seja, o calor é perdido no sistema.

Espero que isto ajude!!!

English Translation

The thermos (also known as "Dewar vase") is an extremely useful device to conserve bodies (essentially liquid) at high temperatures, minimizing energy exchanges with the environment, which is generally colder. A thermos contains water at 60 o C. The thermos + water set has a thermal capacity of C = 80 cal / o C. The system is placed on a table and, after a considerable period of time, its temperature decreases to 55 o C. In this case, it is concluded that the system formed by the thermos and the water inside:

a) lost 400 cal. B) gained 404cal. C) lost 4 850 cal. D) gained 4 850 cal. E) did not exchange heat with the external environment.

Solution

When a system's temperature reduces, it is clear to conclude that the system has lost heat or thermal energy. Since temperature is one of clearest indicators of this, this conclusion is airtight and correct.

But, to know the amount of heat lost to the environment, we now do some thermal energy calculations.

Heat transferrred from or to the water and thermos system = c × ΔT

c = heat capacity of the water and thermos system = 80 cal/°C

ΔT = Change in temperature of the water and thermos system = (final temperature) - (initial temperature)

= 55 - 60 = -5°C

Heat transferred = 80 × -5 = -400 cal.

The minus sign shows that the heat is transferred out of the system, that is, the heat is lost from the system.

Hope this Helps!!!
