Answer:

C. The change of internal energy of a system is the sum of work and heat spent on it.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be destroyed but can only be converted or transformed from one form to another. Therefore, the sum of the initial kinetic energy and potential energy is equal to the sum of the final kinetic energy and potential energy.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf .......equation 1

Where;

Ki and Kf are the initial and final kinetic energy respectively.

Ui and Uf are the initial and final potential energy respectively.

The law of conservation of Energy is another way to describe the law of Thermodynamics. It states that the change of internal energy of a system is the sum of work and heat spent on it.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

ΔU = Q − W

Where;

ΔU represents the change in internal energy of a system.

Q represents the net heat transfer in and out of the system.

W represents the sum of work (net work) done on or by the system.

The surface tension of water was determined in a laboratory by using the drop weight method. 100 drops were released from a bure
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

γ = 0.06563 N / m

9.78% difference

Explanation:

Solution:-

- Surface tension is the ability of any fluid to resist any external force which causes a decreases in surface area of the impact area due to inward compressive forces. These compressive forces occur due to cohesive nature of the fluid molecules.

- Mathematically, surface tension ( γ ) is defined as the force felt per unit length by the fluid.

                           γ = F / L

Where,

              F: Force imparted

              L: The length over which force is felt

- We are given the mass ( M ) of ( n = 100 ) water droplets to e 3.78 g. The mass of a single droplet ( m ) can be evaluated as follows:

                         m = M / n

                         m = 3.78 / 100

                        m = 0.0378 g        

- The force ( F ) imparted by a single drop of water from the burette can be determined from the force balance on a single droplet. Assuming the distance over which the drop falls is negligible and resistive forces are negligible. Then the only force acting on the droplet is due to gravity:

                        F = m*g

                        F = 0.0378*9.81*10^-3

                        F = 0.000370818 N      

- The length over which the force is felt can be magnified into a circular area with diameter equal to that of a single droplet ( d ). The circumferential length ( L ) of the droplet would be as follows:

                        L = π*d

                        L = π*( 0.0018 )

                        L = 0.00565 m

- Then the surface tension would be:

                        γ = F / L

                        γ = 0.000370818 / 0.00565

                        γ = 0.06563 N / m

- The tabulated value of water's surface tension is given as follows:

                       γa = 0.07275 N/m

- We will determine the percentage difference between the value evaluated  and tabulated value as follows:

                     p.diff = \frac{gamma_a - gamma}{gamma_a} * 100\\\\p.diff = \frac{0.07275- 0.06563}{0.07275} * 100 \\\\p.diff = 9.78 %

- The %difference between is within the allowable practical limits of 10%. Hence, the evaluated value ( γ = 0.06563 N / m ) can be accepted with 9.78% error.

A microwave oven uses 1,200 watts. It runs a total of 6 hours during the corse of a week. How much energy does the microwave ove
zzz [600]

Answer:

7.2 kilowatts

Explanation:

Energy= power x time

where:

power = 1,200watts to kilowatts is 1.2kw

time = 6hours

therefore,

energy = 1.2kw x 6hrs

=7.2 kilowatts
