Answer:

B. 17,190 (A P E X)

Explanation:

If the half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years then for every 5730 years the original amount of the carbon-14 is cut in half. So if it originally started at 100% when it was new then in 5730 years it would drop to 50%. After that, every 5730 years it drops to 25% and then 12.5% and so on.

Why do things become hot or cold?<br> Relate to Thermal Energy and The Law of Conservation of Energy
Mekhanik [1.2K]

<u>Answer:</u>

Things become hot and cold because of the transfer of energy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The energy possessed by an object or system is called thermal energy and heat is the flow of this energy. While the law of conversation of energy states that energy is not destroyed or created, it just transfers from one object to another.  

When a hot object is placed in normal conditions, it transfers heat to the environment until both are at the same temperature and heat transfers from the environment to the cold objects placed in normal conditions.

A piece of aluminum has a volume of 1.50 10-3 m3. the coefficient of volume expansion for aluminum is β = 69 ✕ 10-6 (°c)-1. the
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

W = 3.12 J

Explanation:

Given the volume is 1.50*10^-3  m^3 and the coefficient of volume for aluminum is β = 69*10^-6 (°C)^-1. The temperature rises from 22°C to 320°C. The difference in temperature is 320 - 22 = 298°C, so ΔT = 298°C. To reiterate our known values we have:

β = 69*10^-6 (°C)^-1       V = 1.50*10^-3  m^3       ΔT = 298°C

So we can plug into the thermal expansion equation to find ΔV which is how much the volume expanded (I'll use d instead of Δ because of format):

dV = \beta V_{0} dT\\dV = (69*10^{-6})( C)^{-1} * (1.50*10^{-3})m^{3} * (298)C\\dV = 3.0843*10^-5

So ΔV = 3.0843*10^-5 m^3

Now we have ΔV, next we have to solve for the work done by thermal expansion. The air pressure is 1.01 * 10^5 Pa

To get work, multiply the air pressure and the volume change.

W = P * dV = (1.01 * 10^5)Pa * (3.0843*10^{-5})m^3\\W = 3.115143J

W = 3.12 J

Hope this helps!

HELP PLEASE I need to finish this asap

Answer:

I'm not 100% sure, but I think the answer would be the first one because there's a force pushing the object in every direction, so they would cancel eachother out and make the object stay in the same place.
