Straight sticks appear bent when partially immersed in water due to the of light.

The first law of thermodynamics states that heat added to a system is neither created nor destroyed but is as it changes into other forms of energy.

If water vapor with the mass of 35.0 grams is cooled and condensed into water in a closed system such as a closed glass jar, what is the mass of the water after the water vapor completely condenses? a) 34.5 grams b) 35.0 grams c) 35.5 grams d) the mass cannot be determined without knowing the volume

The lid of a pressure cooker forms a nearly airtight seal. steam builds up pressure and increases temperature within the pressure cooker so that food cooks faster than it does in an ordinary pot. the system is defined as the pressure cooker and the water and steam within it. if 2.0 g of water is sealed in a pressure cooker and then vaporized by heating, and 5127 j must be added as heat to completely vaporize the water, what is the change in the system’s internal energy? answer in units of j.
