Answer:

volt, unit of electrical potential, potential difference and electromotive force in the metre–kilogram–second system (SI); it is equal to the difference in potential between two points in a conductor carrying one ampere current when the power dissipated between the points is one watt.

The volts (symbol V) measure the different potential energy that exists between one point and the other. The volts are thus named in honor of Alessandro Volta, the inventor of the battery.

Batteries move anions (negatively charged things) and cations (positively charged things) to opposite terminals, creating a voltage. Voltage is better expressed as electric potential.

Voltage is the electrical force that causes free electrons to move from one atom to another. Just as water needs some pressure to force it through a pipe, electrical current needs some force to make it flow. "Volts" is the measure of "electrical pressure" that causes current flow.

Consider that 168.0 J of work is done on a system and 305.6 J of heat is extracted from the system. In the sense of the first la
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

To solve this problem we must resort to the Work Theorem, internal energy and Heat transfer. Summarized in the first law of thermodynamics.

dQ = dU + dW

Where,

Q = Heat

U = Internal Energy

By reference system and nomenclature we know that the work done ON the system is taken negative and the heat extracted is also considered negative, therefore

W = -168J \righarrow  Work is done ON the system

Q = -305.6J \rightarrow Heat is extracted FROM the system

Therefore the value of the Work done on the system is -158.0J

Answer:

Interchangeable is something that can be used in the same manner as something else without any important differences.

or in a more simple way

something that can be exchange

For example when two sweaters look almost the same and you could easily wear either one with a particular skirt, this is an example of when the sweaters can be worn interchangeably.

When a cup is placed on a table, which force prevents the cup from falling to the ground?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

B. normal force

Explanation:

Because there is no frictional or resistance force. However gravitational force is applied downroad from the center of the cup thus the contact force that is perpendicular to the surface that an object contacts which is the normal force exerted upward from the table that prevents an object from falling.
