Chapter 24, Problem 5A
How does the law of the conservation of energy relate to the first law of
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
Relation between law of the conservation of energy and the first law of thermodynamics.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
As per law of conservation of energy, one form of energy can be converted to another but energy cannot form or disappear. As per the first law of thermodynamics, when heat is given to the system, some of the energy goes into changing the internal energy and some in the work done.
Heat = Work done+ Internal energy
Basically, the first law of thermodynamics is a different version of the law of conservation of energy which ismodified for thermodynamic processes.

- Which of the following best describes how to calculate the average acceleration of any object? Average acceleration is always halfway between the initial acceleration of an object and its final acceleration. Average acceleration is always equal to the change in velocity of an object divided by the time interval. Average acceleration is always equal to the displacement of an object divided by the time interval. Average acceleration is always equal to the change in speed of an object divided by the time interval.arrow_forwardThe figure shows the velocity versus time graph for a car driving on a straight road.

A physics professor did daredevil stunts in his spare time. His last stunt was an attempt to jump across a river on a motorcycle (Fig. P3.63). The takeoff ramp was inclined at 53.0°, the river was 40.0 m wide, and the far bank was 15.0 m lower than the top of the ramp. The river itself was 100 m below the ramp. Ignore air resistance. (a) What should his speed have been at the top of the ramp to have just made it to the edge of the far bank? (b) If his speed was only half the value found in part (a), where did he land?
