Answer:

-140

Explanation:

A gas loses 80joules of heat.

The gas also does 60 joules of work

Therefore the change in internal energy can be calculated as follows

= -80 + (-60)

= -80-60

= -140

Hence the change in internal energy is -140

A rock is suspended from a string, and it accelerates downward. Which one of the following statements is correct? Group of answe

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

a. The magnitude of the tension in the string is greater than the magnitude of the weight of the rock.

Explanation:

During the motion of the rock while it is in downward motion we can say

$T - mg cos\theta = ma_c$

since it is performing circular motion so we will have its acceleration towards its center

$T = mgcos\theta + ma_c$

$a_c = \frac{v^2}{L}$

$T = mgcos\theta + \frac{mv^2}{L}$

So at the lowest point of the path we can say

$T = mg + \frac{mv^2}{L}$

so correct answer is

a. The magnitude of the tension in the string is greater than the magnitude of the weight of the rock.

Leno4ka [110]

Well, we usually assume that the resistance of a circuit component
is constant and doesn't change. But the truth is that for anything
that conducts current, its resistance always increases somewhat
when it warms up.

For things like light bulbs, electric toasters, space heaters, electric
stove burners, the heat coils in a blow-dryer ... anything that's
designed to be really hot when it's doing its job ... the resistance
of those things increases significantly when they come up to their
operating temperatures.
