Avector r is resolved into its components, rx and ry. if the ratio of is 2, what is the angle that the resultant makes with the horizontal?

If a negatively charged particle is placed at rest in an electric potential field that increases in the positive x-direction, what will the particle do? a. accelerate in the positive x-direction b. remain at rest c. accelerate in the negative x-direction

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.

I) a gas contained within a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes two processes, a and b, between the same end states, 1 and 2, where p1 = 10 bar, v1 = 0.1 m3 , u1 = 400 kj and p2 = 1 bar, v2 = 1.0 m3 , u2 = 200 kj: ' process a: process from 1 to 2 during which the pressure-volume relation is pv = constant. ' process b: constant-volume process from state 1 to a pressure of 2 bar, followed by a linear pressure-volume process to state 2. kinetic and potential energy effects can be ignored. for each of the processes a and b, a) sketch the process on a p-v diagram. b) evaluate the work, in kj. c) evaluate the heat transfer, in kj.(ans : qb,12 = -65.0 kj)
