I was reading an old thermodynamics textbook and came across this equation describing change in internal energy. What does the (

dU/dT)V and (dU/dV)T mean? I think it’s partial derivatives, but I’ve never seen a derivative sub (something). Please help

Explanation:

I remember that notation! The expression

dQ = dU = (\dfrac{\partial U}{\partial T})_{V} dT+ (\dfrac{\partial U}{\partial V})_{T}dV

is the 1st law of thermodynamics and it refers to the heat supplied to the system dQ which is also a change in its internal energy dU. The first term is the <u>partial</u> derivative of the internal energy U with respect to temperature T while the volume V is kept constant, as denoted by the subscript V. The 2nd term is similar but this time, temperature is kept constant while its volume partial derivative is being taken.

Ah, memories!

<span>Venus goes around faster than Earth, so its period must be less than Earths 1.0 years. That eliminates the first two answers. My recollection is that T^2 = k r^3, relating period of orbit to radius, so T should be (0.72/1.00)^3/2 = 0.61 of the Earths period, so 0.62 is ans. </span>

Any clue on this one
rodikova [14]

Answer: First option

Explanation: The higher the frequency, the higher the energy.

λν=c where λ is the wavelength, ν is the frequency and c is the speed of light. So when wavelength decreases, v increases and so does energy.

An AM radio wave has a very long wavelength. It therefore has a very low frequency and low energy.

A light wave has a very short wavelength. It therefore has a high frequency and high energy.

While seeds are forming, another plant part forms around them. Animals eat this part and carry the seeds to a new spot.
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is D) fruit</em>

Explanation:

Both the gymnosperm and the angiosperms plants produce seed. Seeds are an essential part of reproduction in plants.

After fertilization has occurred, the ripened ovule is the part which turns into a seed. The size of the seeds depends on the type if plant.

After fertilization, the ovary forms the fruit. As the ovule is present in the ovule hence after fertilization, the seed which was made from the ovule gets enclosed in the fruit which was made from the ovary.
