A gas in a cylinder is held at a constant pressure of 2.34×105 Pa and is cooled and compressed from a volume of 1.74 m3 to 1.24 m3. The internal energy of the gas decreases by 1.45×105 J.
a. Find the work done by gas.
b Find the absolute value of Q of the heat flow into or out of the gas, and state the direction of the heat flow.
c. Does it matter whether the gas is ideal? why or why not?

Three archers each fire four arrows at a target. joe’s four arrows hit at points 10 cm above, 10 cm below, 10 cm to the left, and 10 cm to the right of the center of the target. all four of moe’s arrows hit within 1 cm of a point 20 cm from the center, and flo’s four arrows hit within 1 cm of the center. the contest judge says that one of the archers is precise but not accurate, another archer is accurate but not precise, and the third archer is both accurate and precise. which description applies to which archer? explain

Energy is the ability to do work which measures what

Comedians like to joke that the reason we haven’t been visited by intelligent life from elsewhere in the universe is that aliens have been monitoring earth’s broadcasts of intellectually embarrassing tv programs, like gilligan’s island, fear factor, the jersey shore, and the jerry springer showand so consider us far too primitive to merit a visit. let’s check the assertion that aliens could have been receiving them. tv programs are broadcast at a frequency of about 100mhz with about 100kw of total power in 30frames per second, which emanatesroughly uniformly in all directions. assume that interstellar space transmits these broadcasts without attenuation. no matter how smart they are, aliens would require at least one photon per frame to interpret our signals. findthe number of photons per unit time per unit area reaching a receiver on a possible planet in the nearest star system, which is about 4 light-years away (a light-year is the distance light travels in a year). if aliens aimed a receiver or detector directly at earth, how big (in diameter) would it have to be to receive a photon per frame
