 THE PREFIX KILO MEANSTIMES A THOUSAND OR ONE THOUSAND 
natita [175]4 years ago
6 0
In metric that means multiplying or dividing by 10, 100, 1000, etc. It consists of a partial word like "kilo" or "milli". For example, the prefix "kilo" means "times a thousand" or " one thousand of" the units in question. So "kilometer" means one thousand meters and "kilogram" means one thousand grams.

A system absorbs 194 kj of heat and the surroundings do 120 kj of work on the system. internal eneergy change
notsponge [240]
We can solve the problem by using the first law of thermodynamics, which states that:
\Delta U = Q-W
where
\Delta U is the change in internal energy of the system
Q is the heat absorbed by the system
W is the work done by the system

In our problem, the heat absorbed by the system is Q=+194 kJ, while the work done is W=-120 kJ, where the negative sign means the work is done by the surroundings on the system. Therefore, the variation of internal energy is
\Delta U= Q-W=+194 kJ - (-120 kJ)=+314 kJ

Calculate the amount of heat (in kJ) required to convert 97.6 g of water to steam at 100° C. (The molar heat of vaporization of
Ratling [72]

Answer:

221.17 kJ

Explanation: Note the heat of vaporization is in kJ/mol,then to determine the number of moles of water: divide the mass by 18. Then multiply the number of moles by the molar heat of vaporization of water.

N = 97.6 ÷ 18

Q=molar heat *moles

Q = (40.79) * (97.6 ÷ 18)

This is approximately 221.17 kJ

How does potential and kinetic energy change in to each other and back again?
PolarNik [594]
They can change because the law of conservation of energy allows it to happen, for example when you are sitting, your body is at a potential energy state, meaning you are inert, you are not moving, but when you get up and suddenly start walking or running, that energy is converted to kinetic energy, meaning that you are moving and can be changed back into potential energy if all of a sudden you stop running or walking to rest or sit down. This is just an example of how energy can are transferred multiple ways

If the distance between the first order maximum and the tenth order maximum of a double-slit pattern is 18 mm and the slits are
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Wavelength of light is 600 nm

Explanation:

Given

Distance between the first order maximum and the tenth order maximum of a double-slit pattern = 18 mm

Separation between the slits = 0.15 mm

Distance of screen from the slits = 50 cm

Wavelength

= \frac{18*10^{-3} * 0.15 *10^{-3}}{0.50*9} \\= 6 *10^{-7}\\= 600nm
