In a Carnot cycle, the isothermal expansion of an ideal gas takes place at 400K and the isothermal compression at 300K. During the expansion, 500 cal of heat energy are transferred to the gas. Determine (a) the heat rejected from the gas during isothermal compression, (b) the work done on the gas during the isothermal compression.

Two identical small charged spheres are a certain distance apart, and each one initially experiences an electrostatic force of magnitude f due to the other. with time, charge gradually leaks off of both spheres. when each of the spheres has lost half its initial charge, the magnitude of the electrostatic force will be

How do hydroponic plants differ from nonhydroponic plants? a.) hydroponic plants can grow in a dryer soil. nonhydroponic plants grow in moist soil. b.) hydroponic plants grow on other plants and are known as air plants. nonhydroponic plants do not grow on other plants. c.) hydroponic plants can only grow in rain forests. nonhydroponic plants cannot grow in rain forests. d.) hydroponic plants are grown without soil. nonhydroponic plants are grown in soil.

Asystem containing an ideal gas at a constant pressure of 1.22×10^5 pa gains 2140 j of heat. during the process, the internal energy of the system increases by 2320 j. what is the change in volume of the gas?
