(a) Explanation The formula to calculate the change in internal energy is, Δ U = Q − W Here, Q is the amount of heat. W is the work done. For the expansion of the monatomic gas at constant pressure, the change in the volume is positive and the work is done on the gas (b) To determine The heat is added or taken from the gas when a monatomic gas expands at constant pressure of 130 kPa .

First law of Thermodynamics

The word thermodynamics consists of two words: thermo- and dynamics. Dynamics means the study of motion. The field of thermodynamics is all about the study of the movement of heat. In a more meaningful way, it is stated as the study of the transfer of en…

Required information The leg bone (femur) breaks under a compressive force of about 6.50 × 104 N for a human and 12.3 × 104 N for a horse. The human femur has a compressive strength of 160 MPa, whereas the horse femur has a compressive strength of 140 MPa. What is the effective cross-sectional area of the femur in a horse? (Note: Since the center of the femur contains bone marrow, which has essentially no compressive strength, the effective cross-sectional area is about 80% of the total cross-sectional area.) cm2
