Answer:

D. Meters/Seconds

Explanation:

The time period of a wave is measured in seconds.

A typical wave involves both time and distance. Consider a sound wave, which is basically a periodic modulation of the local air pressure. We "hear" the sound because our ears respond to the variations of pressure.

The most common metric of a sound wave is frequency. This is the rate at which the change in pressure occurs, and is measured in cycles per second, formally known as "hertz". The period is the inverse of frequency andl has the units of seconds per cycle, commonly stated simply as seconds.

A cylinder which is in a horizontal position contains an unknown noble gas at 4.63 × 104 Pa and is sealed with a massless piston

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The change in internal energy of the system is -17746.78 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure $P=4.63\times10^{4}\ Pa$

Remove heat $\Delta U= -1.95\times10^{4}\ J$

Radius = 0.272 m

Distance d = 0.163 m

We need to calculate the internal energy

Using thermodynamics first equation

$dU=Q-W$ ...(I)

Where, dU = internal energy

Q = heat

W = work done

Put the value of W in equation (I)

$dU=Q-PdV$

Where, W = PdV

Put the value in the equation

$dU=-1.95\times10^{4}-(4.63\times10^{4}\times3.14\times(0.272)^2\times(-0.163))$

$dU=-17746.78\ J$

Hence, The change in internal energy of the system is -17746.78 J
