Question

A system absorbs 1000 joules of heat and delivers 600 joules of work while losing 100 joules of heat by conduction to the atmosphere. Calculate the change in the internal energy of the system. 

Options
  • A

    600 Joules

  • B

    500 J

  • C

    400J

  • D

    300 J

  • E

    200 J

Explanation

Total energy = Given heat
= Word done+ Energy dissipated as heat+ Δinternal temperature
1000 = 600 + 300 + Δinternal temperature
Δ internal temperature = 1000 - 600 - 100 = 300J

Total energy = Given heat

= Word done+ Energy dissipated as heat+ Δinternal temperature

1000 = 600 + 300 + Δinternal temperature

Δ internal temperature = 1000 - 600 - 100 = 300J

Total energy = Given heat

= Word done+ Energy dissipated as heat+ Δinternal temperature

1000 = 600 + 300 + Δinternal temperature

Δ internal temperature = 1000 - 600 - 100 = 300J
