What is the change in internal energy if 60 J of heat are released from a

Physics
1 answer:
lana [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

60 J of heat are released from the system: Q=-60 J

20 J of work is done on the system: W=-20 J

∆U=Q-W

∆U=-60-(-20)

∆U=-40 J

Explanation:

If the heat is released from the system, Q should be negative.

If the heat is gained by the system, Q should be positive.

If the work is done on the system, W should be negative.

If the work is done by the system, W should be positive.

gavmur [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to work energy theorem

change in kinetic energy of truck = work done against it

work done against it = force x displacement

= - 850 x 8 = 6800 J

change in kinetic energy of truck = - 6800 J .

energy will be reduced by 6800 J

Which statements describe using genetic factors to influence the growth of organisms? Select the three (3) that apply.
Damm [24]

Answer:

- increasing use of hybrid crops

- altering genes in DNA to create new plants

- developing disease or pest resistant crops

Explanation:

The use of genetic factors to influence the growth of a plant encompasses manipulating the genetic constituent (gene) of such plant.

For example,

- Increasing use of hybrid crops entails mating two pure bred plants based on a gene of interest responsible for a particular trait, to form a hybrid.

- Altering genes in DNA to create new plants is also a genetic factor as it has to with gene modification.

- developing disease or pest resistant crops means that the genetic make up of such plant has been modified to be resistant to pest/disease.
