Energy is transformed and transferred in a thermodynamic system. Option B is correct

First law of thermodynamics:

It states the energy neither be created nor destroyed. It change its form from one to another. It is also known as law of conservation of energy.

It is given by the formula,

\Delta U = Q - W

Where,

\Delta U - change in internal energy

Q -    heat added

W-    work done by the system

Since, heat is a form of energy, hence it is follow the principle of conservation of energy.

Therefore, energy is transformed and transferred in a thermodynamic system. Option B is correct

A steel wire of diameter 1 mm can support a tension of 0.24 kn. suppose you need a cable made of these wires to support a tensio
forsale [732]
Assuming the same deformation and elastic modulus, we can use the relationship:
(P/D)1 = (P/D)2
Where P is the load, Dis the diameter of the wire, 1 is the first wire, and 2 is the second wire. Using the given values and solving for the diameter of the second wire:
D = (24 / 0.24) (1)
D = 100 mm

A bicyclist rides 5.0 km due east, while the resistive forcefrom the air has a magnitude of 3.0 N and points due west. Therider
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

a) Find the work done by the resistive force during the roundtrip.

W=-30kJ

b) Is the resistive force a conservative force? explain.

The resistive force is not a conservative force since the work done during the round trip is not zero

Explanation:

The worf done on object y a constant force F is given by:

W= (F  cos ∅)S

Where S is the displacement and ∅ is the angle between the force and the displacement.

The displacement of the bicycle during each part of the trip is s=5000m and teh magnitude of teh resistance force is F=3.0N

∅1=180° he angle between the displacement and the force

W1=W2

W1 = (3.0 cos180) 5000m

W1=-15.O kJ

W=W1+W2

W=-30kJ

The resistive force is not a conservative force since the work done during the round trip is not zero
