Answer: W = 453J

Explanation: using first law of thermodynamics

∆U = Q - W

Where

Q= heat added

W = work done

∆U = internal energy

Also ∆U = Uf - UI

=134 -87

= 47J

Therefore work done will be

W = Q- ∆U

= 500 - 47

= 453J

We can solve the problem by using the first law of thermodynamics:

\Delta U= Q-W

where

\Delta U is the variation of internal energy of the system

Q is the heat added to the system

W is the work done by the system

In this problem, the variation of internal energy of the system is

\Delta U=U_f-U_i=134 J-87 J=47 J

While the heat added to the system is

Q=500 J

therefore, the work done by the system is

W=Q-\Delta U=500 J-47 J=453 J

Why are such scientific advances still valuable?
Sergeu [11.5K]
Because the more advances made in the world means the more we can learn on how things work and how we can better the lives of humans and other species. If we didn't have scientific advancements we wouldn't have cell phones, electric, tv, car, computers, ect. We would still be living in Cave man era with clubs and horrible language skills.

A child drops a ball from a window. The ball strikes the ground in 3.0 seconds. What is the velocity ofthe ball the instant befo
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer: The velocity of the ball is 30.0 m/s

This can be calculated by using the value of acceleration as 10.0 m/s2 in free fall and the given time of 3.0 seconds. To get the velocity, one will have to multiply the acceleration with the given time and the quotient would result to 30.0 m/s. Mostly all object regardless of their mass, fall to earth with the same acceleration in the absence of air resistance and as the child drops the ball from a window, it gains speed as it falls.
