Heat transferred - Work done = Internal Energy
Explanation:
- If there is more heat transfer than the work done, the energy difference is called internal energy
- The first law of thermodynamics equation is given as ΔU=Q−W where, ΔU = Internal energy; Q = Heat transfer; W = Work done
- Heat = transfer of thermal energy between two bodies at different temperatures
- Work = force used to transfer energy between a system and its surroundings
- The First Law of Thermodynamics states - energy can be converted from one form to another with the interaction of heat, work and internal energy
- Energy cannot be created nor destroyed
Answer:
Explanation:
we know that half life of an element is
T=0.693/λ
where λ is decay constant in order to find decay constant
λ=0.693/T
λ=0.693/8.04
λ=0.086
Answer:
the intensity of the sun on the other planet is a hundredth of that of the intensity of the sun on earth.
That is,
Intensity of sun on the other planet, Iₒ = (intensity of the sun on earth, Iₑ)/100
Explanation:
Let the intensity of light be represented by I
Let the distance of the star be d
I ∝ (1/d²)
I = k/d²
For the earth,
Iₑ = k/dₑ²
k = Iₑdₑ²
For the other planet, let intensity be Iₒ and distance be dₒ
Iₒ = k/dₒ²
But dₒ = 10dₑ
Iₒ = k/(10dₑ)²
Iₒ = k/100dₑ²
But k = Iₑdₑ²
Iₒ = Iₑdₑ²/100dₑ² = Iₑ/100
Iₒ = Iₑ/100
Meaning the intensity of the sun on the other planet is a hundredth of that of the intensity on earth.
The relationship between math and science is very complicated, yet at the same time very simple. In fact all scientific equations are expressed into some form of mathematical equations. Science is a body of knowledge about the Universe. Mathematics is a language that can describe relationships and change in relationships in a rational way. Science generally uses mathematics as a tool to describe science and vice versa.
Answer:
(a) the force is 8.876 N
(b) the magnitude of each charge is 4.085 μC
Explanation:
Part (a)
Given;
coulomb's constant, K = 8.99 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²
distance between two charges, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m
force between the two charges, F = 15 N
when the distance between the charges changes to 13 cm (0.13 m)
force between the two charges, F = ?
Apply Coulomb's law;
Part (b)
the magnitude of each charge, if they have equal magnitude
where;
F is the force between the charges
K is Coulomb's constant
Q is the charge
r is the distance between the charges
