Answer: The final answer is 1,700 J

Explanation: According to first law of thermodynamics:

=Final energy-initial energy=Change in internal energy

q = heat absorbed or released

w = work done by or on the system

w = work done by the system= {Work done by the system is negative as the final volume is greater than initial volume}

q = +500J {Heat absorbed by the system is positive}

w = work done by the system = -300J

U2- 1500J= + 500J --300J

U2= 1700J

A graduated cylinder contains 17.5 ml of water. When a metal cube is placed onto the cylinder, its water level rises to 20.3 ml.

igomit [66]

Answer:

V=2.8 ml

Explanation:

volume of the cube is it would be 20.3 - 17.5 ml so 2.8 ml.

A pebble is thrown into the air with a velocity of 19/m at an angle of 36 with respect to the horizontal.

kow [346]

Answer:

The maximum height the pebble reaches is approximately;

A. 6.4 m

Explanation:

The question is with regards to projectile motion of an object

The given parameters are;

The initial velocity of the pebble, u = 19 m/s

The angle the projectile path of the pebble makes with the horizontal, θ = 36°

The maximum height of a projectile, $h_{max}$ , is given by the following equation;

$h_{max} = \dfrac{\left (u \times sin(\theta) \right)^2}{2 \cdot g}$

Therefore, substituting the known values for the pebble, we have;

$h_{max} = \dfrac{\left (19 \times sin(36 ^{\circ}) \right)^2}{2 \times 9.8} = 6.3633894140470403035477570509439$

Therefore, the maximum height of the pebble projectile, $h_{max}$ ≈ 6.4 m.

When a gas is heated, it absorbs 196 joules of heat from the surroundings. At the same time, the gas expands, doing pressure-vol

timurjin [86]

Answer:

(a) q positive; w negative.

(b) ΔE = -126 J

Explanation:

(a) Determine whether the amounts of heat (q) and work (w) exchanged should have positive or negative signs. heat (q) positive negative work (w) positive negative

By convention, when the system absorbs heat from the surroundings, its sign is positive, that is, q = 196 J.

By convention, when the system exerts work on the surroundings, its sign is negative, that is, w = -322 J.

(b) Calculate the change in internal energy (ΔE) of the gas. J

The change in internal energy (ΔE) can be calculated using the following expression.

ΔE = q + w

ΔE = 196 J + (-322 J) = -126 J

(c) Determine whether one or more of the following is a state function:

internal energy (E) of a system,

change in internal energy (ΔE) of a system,

heat (q) absorbed or released by a system,

work (w) done on or by a system.

E and ΔE are state functions (they only depend on the states of the gas), whereas q and w depend on the trajectory.

Rosalind Franklin, James Watson, and Francis Crick’s discovered the DNA's Double Helix.

DNA is an abbreviation for deoxyribonucleic acid and it can be defined as the molecules that are found within cells, and they are saddled with the responsibility of storing genetic information in living organisms.

In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick's used other scientists' work to create a model of DNA in that they used Rosalind Franklin's photo to help them determine that deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was a double helix.

Furthermore, the discovery of DNA's Double Helix by Rosalind Franklin, James Watson, and Francis Crick led to modern molecular biology, which has helped many scientists and researcher to understand how genes control the chemical processes in the body of a living organism.
