Two gases are A and B are separated by a partition within a box. Gas B expands and move the partition doing 200j of work on gas A. 400j of energy are transfered to gas A from B due to temperature difference.what is net total change of the internal energy for gas A.
The net total change in internal energy for gas A can be calculated by summing up the work done on gas A and the energy transferred to gas A from gas B:
Net total change in internal energy = Work done + Energy transferred
Given that the work done on gas A is 200 J and the energy transferred from gas B to gas A is 400 J, we can substitute these values into the equation:
Net total change in internal energy = 200 J + 400 J = 600 J
Therefore, the net total change in internal energy for gas A is 600 J.
To find the net total change of the internal energy for gas A, we need to consider the work done on gas A and the energy transferred to gas A due to the temperature difference.
Given:
- Gas B does 200 J of work on gas A.
- 400 J of energy is transferred to gas A from B due to the temperature difference.
The work done on gas A by gas B is positive because it is work done on the system. The energy transferred to gas A due to the temperature difference is also positive because it is heat gained by the system.
Using the first law of thermodynamics, we can calculate the net total change of internal energy for gas A as follows:
Net total change of internal energy = Work done + Energy transferred
Net total change of internal energy = 200 J + 400 J
Net total change of internal energy = 600 J
Therefore, the net total change of the internal energy for gas A is 600 J.
